The Cavalier Daily's lead editorial addressing Barbara Pierson's presentation to the Honor Committee ("Trying Times," Sept.
The Washington Times' Web site has an interesting article "Va. event to promote marriage, 2-parent families", including quotes from W.
It is ironic that the national headquarters of Sigma Phi Epsilon would revoke the charter of U.Va.'s Eta Chapter in their effort to "challenge stereotypes" of fraternities and promote a more "personal and professional" fraternal experience.
First, I would like to state that I was not in a fraternity at U.Va. I knew SPE brothers during my time at the University, but anyone who knows me would say that I had a very diverse social circle. Yes, SPE would throw bottles off of their roof, break things, cause a ruckus, and liked to fight a lot.
As an alumna and current graduate student, I was dismayed to read the Sports section on Tuesday and see Dan Stalcup's article ("Hokie for a weekend," Sept.
As a fan of Virginia Athletics since birth, I was incredibly disappointed in Dan Stalcup's article "Hokie for a weekend". It was truly disheartening to read about "a Wahoo at heart" who had no problems with donning a maroon shirt, cheering for our arch-rivals, and storming Worsham Field after a Virginia Tech victory.
Stephanie Waties' article on health care ("The costs of good care", Sept. 17) seemed to have good intentions; however, it was extremely biased.
I am writing on behalf of the University of Virginia's Department of Athletics to apologize for the use of an image of a Native American in the pre-game video at last week's game against the College of William & Mary. William & Mary relinquished its use of the "Indians" nickname and its American Indian mascot in the 1980s.
I regret to say that I have had enough of Mr. Groh and the substandard product he brings to the University.
How is it that when a student passed out from dehydration at the game against William & Mary that she had to purchase water at the first aid station?
I am just writing to say thank you to Charlottesville's firefighters. I live on Brandon Avenue, and while I was not personally affected by the apartment fire that happened there yesterday, I did witness you all in action and your ready response to put it out.
While all Cavalier fans were let down by the losing score of Saturday's football game, I was disappointed by something else: the pregame video.
Unlike most everyone else, I remained in Scott Stadium as the final seconds trickled off the clock and the score became official: 26-14, in favor of William and Mary.
I have a minor issue with the ongoing gubernatorial race in my home state of Virginia. Let me be clear.
Matt Conover's article (Wednesday) regarding the tailgate procedures for the Lawn and Range gives half (or less) of the whole story and smears people who have worked tirelessly to permit students to engage in activities which the University is completely within their rights to prohibit.
Though the loss to William & Mary will unfortunately encourage those students in Williamsburg who mistakenly believe University students care about our "rivalry" with them, it might also have a positive side, in that it will eliminate any lingering doubts about the need to find a new coach. There were stronger forces at play Saturday, however, than horribly incompetent coaching.
The agreement to make water more accessible for students at home football games marks another significant step in a growing relationship between the athletic department and the student body.
Al Groh football teams have disappointed me for many years. Now they embarrass me and our entire University.
