12 years representing (before Virgil Goode lost to Tom Perriello)
11 years a-chairing (before University professor Julian Bond announced he will step down as chair of the NAACP)
10 Republicans electing (before Virginia voted for a Democratic candidate for president for the first time since 1964)
9 Olympians competing (current and former Cavalier took how several medals in Beijing)
8 Lawns a-lighting (this time, using energy-efficient bulbs)
7 Society a-giving (14,777.77 to a student-proposed project)
6 percent a-voting (in a fall student referendum)
5 football wins!
4 Unity initiatives (FreeRide, Lighten’ Up, Don’t Sign It!, and a request for free parking at the Central Grounds garage)
3 more years of Al Groh
2 shipboard trials (prompting the Honor Committee to amend its Semester at Sea policies)
