How to Browse Recent Stories and Sections on Old Gold & Black (wfuogb.com)

Old Gold & Black is Wake Forest University's student newspaper, published at wfuogb.com under the tagline "Covers the campus like the magnolias." You can browse it two ways: scan the homepage, which groups recent stories by section with dated listings and "View All" links, or jump straight to a section that matches what you want. The homepage approach works best for a quick survey of the last week or two; section browsing is better when you're following a specific beat like sports or arts.

What the homepage gives you

The homepage is organized as a stack of section blocks, each showing a few recent items before a "View All" link. From the page evidence, the visible sections and sample entries are:

Every item carries a byline and a date, so you can judge freshness at a glance. The most recent items in the evidence are dated Oct. 28, 2026, which tells you how current the front page runs.

Step-by-step: finding a recent story

1. Open wfuogb.com. The homepage loads with section blocks in the order above.
2. Scan the section headers (Opinion, Environment, Arts & Culture, Sports, City & State, Features) to find your topic.
3. Check the dates under each headline. Items are listed newest-first within a block, so the top entry is the freshest.
4. Click "View All" at the end of a block to see the full section listing rather than the handful of teasers.
5. Open the headline to read the story. Photo galleries appear as their own entries (for example, "Photo gallery: Project Pumpkin 2026" and "Photo Gallery: #10 Ranked Field Hockey Dominates JMU 4-0"), so click those directly if you want images rather than text.

Expected result: you land on a dated article page with the writer's name and section label, and the section listing lets you keep scrolling backward through older pieces.

Choosing an entry point

• You want a quick campus overview: start at the top of the homepage and read down through the section blocks; the mix of news, opinion, and sports gives you the week's shape in a few minutes.
• You follow one beat: use that section's "View All" link and work backward by date. Sports readers, for instance, get game recaps plus photo galleries in the same block.
• You want visuals: look for entries labeled "Photo gallery" or "Photo Gallery" — they sit alongside text stories rather than in a separate media section.
• You want a digest: the "Weekly News Recap" label appears on the homepage as a roundup entry point, useful if you've been away and want one pass over the week.

Common snags

• Section names shift. The homepage shows both a general campus-news block (Project Pumpkin, the "humanity" piece) and a labeled "City & State" block; don't assume every campus story sits under one header.
• Dates are the only freshness signal. There's no visible "most read" or trending module in the evidence, so sort by date rather than assuming prominence equals recency.
• Galleries are easy to miss. They're formatted like articles in the listings; the words "photo gallery" in the headline are your cue.
• Older stories need "View All." The homepage teasers stop after a few items per section, so anything beyond the last week or two requires the full section listing.

The site publishes in English and covers Wake Forest campus life, so it's most useful to students, faculty, families, and Winston-Salem locals following university news.
