We are writing today advocating for our advocate, Nicole Eramo. As her students, and as her friends, we feel it’s our responsibility to speak up on her behalf, especially when she has spoken up on ours so many times before.
Peter Cuskley D’Agostino, 20, of Greenwich, died suddenly on Thursday, Nov. 20, in Charlottesville, Va. A second-year student at the University of Virginia, Peter graduated in 2013 from St.
Peter D’Agostino was one of the rare people who always gave more than he received. Despite facing more than his fair share of adversity, especially over the last few years, you could always count on him to greet you with a smile, a hug, and as much friendly conversation as you had time for.
We are adrift. We have faced tragedy upon tragedy. We have been asked to contend with the inexplicable, with the horrendous, and with the deeply unfair.
Although at this time we have no specific knowledge of the claims set out in the Rolling Stone Article, we take this matter — and these tragic allegations — very seriously.
We won’t recognize Connor the way we recognized Hannah, but if we truly want to make our community safer, we need to change that.One reason for the difference is that there is no hope for Connor like there was for Hannah when she went missing; until this weekend, and especially early in the search, we could believe that if we helped and hoped and pushed, maybe we would find her alive.
One of the University’s most notable recent accomplishments, in my mind, is the push for environmental sustainability on Grounds.
We write as concerned students who are seeking a formal avenue of communication with the Board of Visitors.
I have read with interest the articles in The Cavalier Daily regarding the disappearance of Hannah Graham, in large part as the parent of a daughter who attended and graduated from the University and as an alumnus who is closely involved with working with undergraduates at the University.My daughter lived off-Grounds for three of her four years, including at the 14th street corridor where Hannah Graham was living, and my wife I continued to remain concerned about our daughter’s safety, reminding her regularly, I am sure to her annoyance, to be conscious of the need for personal security.
As a female student that frequents the Downtown Mall, I consider the disappearance of Hannah Graham to be particularly unnerving.
The University relies on its Community of Trust ? a “benefit” at the University that binds its students not to lie, cheat or steal ? to protect one another when we perceive something wrong.
Every day in court, I see college students plead guilty to relatively minor crimes — trespass, public intoxication, urinating in public, possession of marijuana, shoplifting, writing a bad check, obstruction of justice, simple assault, etc.
Constantly shifting security measures are considered a best practice among terrorism analysts precisely because they tend to thwart terrorist attacks in the short-term and force the bad guys to change tactics over the long-term.
The continuance of the system is important to not only undergraduates but also to the alumni who became members as undergraduates and developed friendships during their years at the University which remain important to many.
The Z Society is pleased to announce that Nicole Eramo, associate dean of students, has received the Pale Z Award.
Moving Final Exercises off the Lawn also undermines Thomas Jefferson’s original vision of the Lawn as the center of the University.
This will not be the only time the principles of our community are challenged. But, the takeaway from this event is that our community can face those challenges head on.
So we thank you for being you; for living up to the ideals set forth by Mr. Jefferson to educate others and share the blessings of liberty.
In recent years, a “tradition” of yelling “Hoos!” during the singing of the National Anthem at football and basketball games has become more pronounced.
In cities, traffic is normal. Anyone driving up 29 during rush hour knows traffic. Anyone who has been to DC, New York, London, Rome, Tokyo or Jerusalem knows traffic.
