Following an all-encompassing victory Monday against Miami and its high-octane offense, the Cavaliers (19-5, 10-3 ACC) looked to beat a team of similar firepower in Florida State (13-10, 7-5 ACC) away from the friendly confines of John Paul Jones Arena. Coach Tony Bennett opted for a similar approach to that which has been working for Virginia as of late, featuring graduate forward Jordan Minor in the starting lineup to give the Cavaliers strength in the post.

With Class of 2028 acceptances starting to roll out, I couldn’t help but feel a bit nostalgic. I vividly remember my acceptance to the University three years ago, and the excitement and joy that accompanied my letter of admission. Halfway through my third year, I also now realize how little I knew about the realities of day-to-day college life. Here are some thoughts and reflections about my time at the University so far.

Virginia remains an island amid treacherous seas — the only Southern state to not patently restrict access to abortion after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Our neighbor to the South, North Carolina has blocked abortion access after 12 weeks’ gestation. Our neighbors to the west, Tennessee, West Virginia and Kentucky have all passed total bans to abortion at any stage of pregnancy. These states only encompass a fraction of all national abortion bans — it is estimated that 2 in 5 women in the United States now live in a state that restricts or bans their access to reproductive healthcare. Since Virginia inhabits a unique role as the only state in the Appalachian region to not restrict or ban abortion access, it is imperative that our legislators take action to enshrine and protect abortion rights — not only for the good of Virginians, but also for residents of states surrounding us.

Student-initiated calls for change come as a result of growing student safety concerns following the attempted abduction of a female student last October, among other incidents that have occurred on Grounds. In light of these concerns, the University should change their current policy in order to allow students to bring pepper spray to all university sanctioned events.
