Virginia fans showed out in force. Through 40 minutes of play against one of the three best teams in college basketball, the student section stayed loud and on its feet, as the Cavaliers (13-13, 6-9 ACC) put in a ferocious, but ultimately fruitless, effort against the dreadnought that is No. 3 Duke.

Paul Chang narrates his hole-in-one over a phone call, and it’s all a bit of a puzzle. A milestone achieved, a curse broken, an immediate call to the parents? All things that happened. Forgetting two holes later about the feat? Also something that happened.
Coach Tony Elliott and company entered Blacksburg’s Lane Stadium on a cold November night, the fate of Virginia’s season resting upon the three hours of football about to take place. Virginia, 5-6, arrived in the midst of a free fall after a blazing 4-1 start. Luckily, Elliott looked across the sideline at a Virginia Tech team with the same record. Even more, the Hokies were now reduced to a freshman quarterback making his first career start. A Cavalier win, which seemed eminently feasible, would mean a return to postseason play, the program’s first bowl appearance since 2019.
Following the revival of the Sex and Relationship Column, Life desk editors Kate Johnson and Dana Douglas reflect on the process of developing and producing the new column as well as the importance of having safe spaces on Grounds to discuss often stigmatized and taboo topics.
Pearl Island Café is a charming shop that offers delectable Caribbean dishes — which the cafe describes as a fusion of African, Amerindian, European, East Indian, Arab and Chinese cuisine, with influence from the indigenous population of the Caribbean as well. Not only does the Black-owned restaurant provide tasty bites in a sustainable manner, but they educate the patrons on what they’re eating and its history — one of my favorite aspects.

Virginia saw several worthy opponents at the Invitational, going 2-3, giving other big names such as No. 5 Texas A&M and Auburn a run for their money.
The trouble was the fusion. How to devise a lie that simultaneously felt funny and clever and ultimately harmless. Which combination of words, about Duke freshman Cooper Flagg, to slap on a poster?
The small island nation of Barbados — off the coast of Puerto Rico and Venezuela — is most commonly known for its stunning beaches and vibrant culture. But one thing it is definitely not recognized for is the sport of squash.

For a president and vice president who both attended the best institutions of higher education, the leaders of our country are unusually hellbent on deconstructing the nature of academia. In recent executive orders, President Donald Trump has attempted to cut research funding to colleges across the United States by amounts that would produce drastic drops in research at universities, including ours. The impetus for the order purports to reduce government inefficiencies and eliminate research programs associated with diversity, equity and inclusion. Though this action has been temporarily blocked by the judicial system, the threat to research remains real and potent. Whatever the root cause, our government has lost a perception of research it used to espouse — university research moves humanity forward. While eliminating research funding associated with DEI may cut costs, the potential for and investment into new learning is halted by an efficiency-crazed government.
