For years on end, graduate student workers at the University have long protested serious delays in the reception of their stipends. The United Campus Workers of Virginia, a local chapter of a union which represents higher education workers, regularly advocates for wage and stipend raises. But at our University, this union has not been able to advocate for raises because the more pressing problem is the all too-frequent absence of stipends. Stipend checks received weeks late and thousands of dollars short are particularly unacceptable for a university that regularly boasts about its financial accessibility. In this way, such systemic problems at the graduate level undermine the institution’s proclaimed support for diverse financial backgrounds. The University must restoratively respond to these failures, locating tangible solutions to a system that continues to mistreat and undervalue the graduate student community.

Virginia trounced Georgia Tech in the first half and never looked back behind an electric Senior Day crowd at John Paul Jones Arena Saturday. The Cavaliers (22-9, 13-7 ACC) entered the game on the bubble of making the NCAA Tournament, while the Yellow Jackets (14-17, 7-13 ACC) sought to continue a three-game winning streak.

Virginia men’s basketball has had an uncharacteristically streaky season in 2023-24. The Cavaliers (22-9, 13-7 ACC) won nine of their first ten before dropping four of their next six. Then, to start off the academic semester, they won eight games in a row, then dropped four of seven, only to close out the regular season with a quality 72-57 win against Georgia Tech. The win against the Yellow Jackets clinched the No. 3 seed for Virginia in the ACC Tournament.

Virginia women’s lacrosse’s quick turnaround from a Wednesday win over No. 23 Richmond did not deter the No. 13 Cavaliers (7-1, 2-1 ACC) when they traveled to South Bend, Ind. to face Notre Dame Saturday afternoon. Virginia earned a gritty 12-10 victory against the No. 4 Fighting Irish (5-1, 1-2 ACC), and it took a strong all-around showing from the Cavaliers to add to the win column.

Virginia women’s basketball watched its season come to a crashing conclusion in the ACC Tournament March 6. The Cavaliers led by 11 points over Wake Forest — holders of the No. 14 seed out of 15 and a 2-16 conference record — heading into the fourth quarter, only for Virginia to miss 14 of its first 15 field goal attempts en route to a shocking 58-55 defeat. However, despite a disastrous end to the year, the 2023-24 season should be viewed as a success for Coach Amaka Agugua-Hamilton and her Cavaliers.

Before departing Charlottesville for spring break, my friends and I had two things on our to-do lists — fill our gas tanks and fill our bellies. However, we were each in the mood for something different. In order to satisfy everyone’s cravings, we decided to go somewhere with a diverse menu, and we settled on the Blue Moon Diner, recommended to me by two other food writers for The Cavalier Daily. The restaurant was reasonably priced relative to its ample portion sizes — with the average dish priced below $15 — making the diner perfect for an affordable outing with friends.

Virginia women’s basketball traveled to the Greensboro Coliseum Wednesday evening to take on Wake Forest in the first round of the ACC Tournament. The Cavaliers (15-15, 7-11 ACC) were coming in with momentum, winning five of their last seven games, including an incredible upset Sunday against No. 11 Virginia Tech. The Demon Deacons (7-24, 2-16 ACC) had defeated Virginia in the last two ACC Tournaments and were hoping to make it a third. Unfortunately for the Cavaliers, they fell apart in the final frame and lost the game 58-55.

With the University spanning around 1,682 acres of land, walking to class is not always the easiest commute. Long routes, crowded sidewalks and vehicle traffic pose challenges for students who travel on foot. As a result, micro-mobility vehicles — which consist of low-speed, human- or electric-powered devices — have become popular alternatives to walking at the University. From traditional bikes to electric scooters and unicycles, students are traveling more efficiently on wheels, although some raise concerns over their safety on the roads.

An explosive opening quarter put the Cavaliers ahead 6-1, and they did not look back the rest of the game.

Days after ringing in the new year, 18 students and two professors closed out their study abroad trip in Ecuador in an unexpected way — leaving amid a nationwide lockdown. The 60-day state of emergency, declared Jan. 8 when the notorious drug lord Adolfo Macías disappeared from prison, began while students were on-site for the U.Va. in Ecuador & the Galápagos Islands January Term. The state of emergency was extended Friday due to ongoing gang violence. Two months after their departure, students express mixed feelings about the trip, and the International Studies Office continues to evaluate whether the study abroad program will be reoffered next year.

It is not often that the concepts we learn in class apply directly to our lives, but price discrimination is a phenomenon college students — particularly out-of-state students — know all too well. Price discrimination is an economic term used to describe how an organization can charge different prices to different customers based on an individual’s willingness to pay. An easy example would be a restaurant that offers a student or senior citizen a discount. By offering a lower price to certain groups, a company increases demand in these groups and, theoretically, both the company and the individuals win.
