When the University first brought back students studying abroad in Italy and canceled all outgoing study abroad programs last March, it turned out to be just the start of a brutal pandemic that would take the lives of over 500,000 Americans in one year. Students would be sent home in March 2020 only to come back five months later subject to masking requirements, gathering limits and public health guidelines previously unheard of — it was a new normal.

For someone who loves to sleep as much as I do, you would think I’d be more consistent at going to bed at a reasonable hour. If I try hard enough, I can imagine an alternate reality where I put down my phone, hop into bed and get that recommended seven hours of sleep every night. I would wake up bright and early, refreshed and ready to tackle whatever awaits me in the morning. Maybe I would even get up early to watch the sunrise, take a moment to close my eyes and listen to the birds chirping — or something else equally idyllic and Disney-like. It would be a beautiful start to the day.

The U.Va. Biocomplexity Institute’s COVID-19 model predicts a peak in COVID-19 cases in Virginia in February if the cold weather or new variants continue to increase case growth. Based on current trends as of Jan. 7, these circumstances may cause new cases in Virginia to peak at around 57,000 per week during the week leading up to Feb. 21. If additional measures are taken to control the spread, however, new cases may peak at around 30,000 per week leading up to Jan. 10.

This semester — unlike any other in the University’s history — has been characterized by change after change. A delayed return to Grounds, evolving COVID-19 restrictions and hybrid and online classes have all demanded that students and faculty members be exceptionally adaptable over the past 15 weeks. In this final stretch of the semester, modifications to the traditional exam schedule pose no exception to this trend.

As finals season comes to an end, a new season is upon us and it is time to relax and take a break — especially after a hectic and unique school year. With a longer winter break, it provides a perfect opportunity to rewind and prepare even more for the upcoming spring semester. Furthermore, this allows more time to safely celebrate the holidays with loved ones and friends.

After the University canceled in-person classes for the semester and highly encouraged students not to return to Grounds after spring break, many students found themselves back in their hometowns unexpectedly early. For international students, however, home isn’t simply a three-hour drive or two-hour plane ride away.

After a week of staying home and practicing social distancing, I realized that every day had consisted of consuming endless amounts of snacks and a futile attempt to compensate by walking a whopping 500 steps. At some point it occurred to me that I should make the most out of this unfortunate situation and find ways to efficiently utilize the extra time I have now.

It’s the atypical office romance — late deadlines, cutting and pasting headlines and resisting the Oxford comma to abide by AP-style guidelines. It’s the ‘70s, ‘80s and ‘90s — dozens of young college students are bonding in The Cavalier Daily office over sleepless nights. While covering Watergate, President Hereford’s election and even facing the University administration’s shutdown of the paper, some staff members also found their lifelong partners among their companions in the office.

The stage was set for Rockn’ to Lockn’ on a chilly night at Sprint Pavilion. The mid-Spring classic — as advertised by the promoters — took place Saturday and was meant to give the perception of summer and, more significantly, festival season on the horizon. Not many people dawned the standard no shirt, no shoes, no problem festival gear that Lockn’-goers are familiar with as temperatures got down in the low 50s. Most opted to add on particular blanket or shawl, perhaps thinking of the time in August when they’d be dancing on top of it in the summer heat, surrounded by thousands of like-minded festival goers all having the time of their lives.

Walking through the Nazi concentration camp of Sachsenhausen did not feel right. As a Jewish individual, I had always imagined what my first experience at a concentration camp would be like. Many say that you never feel exactly what you expect to feel. I did not expect to see high school students laughing, playing games and rapping on the site of a former concentration camp. I did not expect to be stared and pointed at by European visitors for wearing a yarmulke at a place where Jewish people were imprisoned in horrible conditions less than a century ago. Although it is understandable for high schoolers to be immature and unfamiliar with Jewish dress, we need to recognize the continued threat of anti-Semitism in present-day Europe.

Wherever you’re venturing off to this spring break, there are sure to be some staple foods you must try. After all, trying new restaurants and dishes is probably one of the best parts about traveling. Whether you will be roughing it in Joshua Tree National Park on an Alternative Spring Break trip or laying on the beaches of Cancun, you must knock a new food off your bucket list before you come back to the University.

Acclaimed composer Leonard Bernstein’s 99th birthday last August initiated a year of celebration for many music lovers across the globe. The so called “Bernstein Centennial,” a year-long celebration of the life and work of the influential musician, was embraced by a wide variety of performance groups and has resulted in his work springing up in many different areas. The University Singers brought this excitement to Charlottesville over the past weekend, through the production of one of Bernstein’s most well-known pieces — “Mass,” a theatrical exploration of the questions of faith and doubt. Over 150 performers joined together to present two shows at the Paramount Theater.
