Wake Forest University has received a $1 million anonymous gift to support a new African American Studies program that begins this fall. 
The gift will establish a fund named for Dr. Dolly A. McPherson
, a long-time Wake Forest English professor who made significant contributions to African American literary studies. McPherson came to Wake Forest in the 1970s as the first full-time Black female faculty member. She died in 2011.
