Student Council presidential candidates for the 2026 election — third-year College student Micah Andrews and third-year Commerce student Michael Mitchell — participated in a Student Council presidential debate hosted by The Cavalier Daily and the University Board of Elections Sunday. The two candidates discussed their intentions to increase access to University mental health services and better publicize the work of Student Council so that more students can utilize its resources. The debate was open to audience members and was live streamed.
Some of my fondest memories come from hair salons. I can still feel the booster seat settled beneath my thighs before I was big enough to sit in the chair. I can still see the stylist behind me, rat-tailed comb pinned between her teeth, scooping copious amounts of hair gel out onto the back of her hand. I can still smell the aroma of peppermint and herbs saturating the room, knowing I will be sitting in that salon chair for hours to come.
Virginia squash enjoyed successes, both tangible and intangible over the weekend at the Mid-Atlantic Squash Conference Championships in Charlottesville at its own McArthur Squash Center. The No. 5 men’s team (13-3, 4-1 MASC) competed in the Holley Cup, winning their fifth title in seven years, while the No. 5 women’s team (11-4, 4-1 MASC) fell in the final of the Gaynor Cup.
Lyle Lovett told us that despite our not being from Texas, Texas would “want [us] anyway.” It seems that Texas has decided to come to us instead — the Austin-based real estate firm LV Collective has purchased the vacant lot next to Yugo Crestline, formally the Standard, with intentions to build an 11-story student housing complex. Residents of Westhaven, a public housing complex, who live directly behind this proposed skyscraper, are demanding the City Council put a stop to this construction. Further, calling this project a student housing project is deeply ironic — the high cost of living at such locations only serves the fraction of students who can afford to live there. City Council needs to halt this development before it promotes a dangerous precedent for student housing and damages a community.
Just nine days after suffering its first loss of the season in Columbus, Ohio, No. 1 Virginia faced a familiar challenge Monday afternoon. And once again, No. 2 Ohio State worked past the Cavaliers (8-2, 0-0 ACC).
Editor’s Note: The Cavalier Daily Editorial Board interviewed two candidates for Student Council President, two candidates for Vice President for Organizations and two candidates for Vice President for Administration. Each interview lasted approximately 30 minutes, and all candidates were asked the same baseline questions. The endorsements below are based solely on the content of these interviews and the Student Council debate held by The Cavalier Daily and the University Board of Elections.
This past weekend, the Virginia long distance team headed back up north to Boston for the David Hemery Valentine Invitational. The meet included many personal best times for the Cavaliers along with a surprising turn of events in the men’s 800-meter invite.
Virginia track and field brought the excitement and electricity from Charlottesville to Lynchburg and Clemson, competing in a series of events highlighted by the team’s sprinters and jumpers on Friday and Saturday. The team as a whole was spread throughout the country, but the short-distance bunches at Liberty and Clemson held it down strongly for the Cavalier collective.
What does a film adaptation owe its source material? What if, say, that source material is one of the most famous novels of all time — Emily Brontë’s 1847 novel “Wuthering Heights?” Ever since news broke of director and writer Emerald Fennell’s plans to adapt Brontë’s classic Gothic love story, reactions have been divisive. Many people believe that Fennell owes the original text quite a lot, and have been put off by the modernized costumes, inaccurate racial casting and hypersexualization promised by promotional materials. Now that the movie — released on Thursday — has made its way into the public sphere, it is evident that while some of these twists are eye-catching, they fail to coalesce into something truly visionary.
The Paramount Theater on the Downtown Mall had a line out the door Friday for the Black History Month Gospel Concert featuring opening act Madison Ryann Ward and five time-Grammy Award Winner Chandler Moore. The concert — presented by the University’s Division for Community Engagement and Equal Opportunity — was rooted in Christian faith and served as a worship event as well as a musical one.

College athletics are unique in that fans themselves can often swing the tide in favor of their school’s team. Home advantage is certainly a factor in professional leagues, but the camaraderie and passion at that level pales in comparison to the high-energy, field-rushing, court-storming ways of collegiate sports.
After falling behind 7-4 midway through the second quarter, junior attackman McCabe Millon erupted with three straight goals in 65 seconds. Virginia’s leading scorer, McCabe displayed his wide array of skills — hitting his first goal on a fastball from 10 yards out, ripping an even stronger shot from 15 yards away for his second and pulling off a dazzling spin move that completely lost his defender to give him a point-blank shot at the net to cap off his hat-trick speedrun.
Less than 24 hours after a dominating performance against Delaware State, No. 25 Virginia headed up to Farmville, Va., to partake in the Longwood Invitational. However, what was supposed to be a weekend full of softball quickly turned into just two games thanks to mother nature. Still, the Cavaliers (7-1, 0-0 ACC) were able to advance their winning streak seven, defeating both Longwood (1-7, 0-0 BSC) and Toledo (1-7, 0-0 MAC).
Virginia headed to the heart of Silicon Valley Sunday for the final stop on its West Coast trip against Stanford. The Cavaliers (18-8, 10-5 ACC) ultimately held off the Cardinal (16-11, 5-9 ACC) in a seesaw of a game, the final score 75-69.
The rivalry between No. 12 Virginia and No. 6 Maryland has been forged by decades of lacrosse battles and a mutual, begrudging respect. But on Saturday afternoon at SECU Stadium in College Park, Md., that history felt like a heavy weight for the No. 12 Cavaliers (0-4, 0–0, ACC). Despite moments of offensive excellence and a gritty first-half stand, Virginia could not contain a relentless Terrapins (3–0, 0–0, Big 10) attack and ultimately fell 17–9.

Student-operated arts publication V Magazine, student radio station WXTJ Radio and the newly-opened Ginkgo Bookshop — a non-profit used bookstore run by three University students — came together to host a jazz night Thursday, full of upbeat music and fundraising for the Legal Aid Justice Center. Three student bands — 4E Combo, Vacuum Decay and Loose Champagne — all played exciting selections of jazz music that had the crowd swaying to saxophonic melodies.
