A toned-down "Sex and the City" meets the University tonight at the premiere of this year's new programming for HooTV.
My friends, it's a bleak time of year to be in Charlottesville -- or anywhere else on the East Coast, for that matter. The sidewalks are soggy, the roads are mushy and all that most of us have to do is work. Even our diversions have been disappointing, as anyone who watched the finale of "Joe Millionaire" can attest. About the only positive of the recent snowfall is that it doesn't appear to have blackened the cars of those of us who live in the 14th Street area.
The debate is finally over: first-year students no longer will be permitted to bring their cars to Grounds during the spring semester, in accordance with an Oct. 4 announcement from Leonard W. Sandridge, the University's executive vice president and chief operating officer.
F luorescent frisbees whirling past sun-tanned students. Puppies frolicking past dis- cussion sections seated in the shade of the trees. Such idyllic scenes typically characterize spring on the South Lawn.
A bomb threat on New and Old Cabell Halls yesterday tested the effectiveness of the University's bomb threat protocol and created a hectic and unique situation for students and visitors alike.
You coward. Your name remains unknown, mostly because you are the coward that called in a bomb threat - maybe to get out of your ENLT 382 exam. Or maybe you're the coward who thought that idea was so bright, you'd use it to get out of your midterms only days later. Whoever you are, your immaturity, lack of judgment, cowardice and stupidity are disgusting.
Following a string of erroneous bomb threats on University buildings, the administration has revised and clarified its policies for such situations.
Fourth-year College student Cavan Doyle is not getting any homework accomplished over Spring Break. Instead, she is doing something she finds much more worthwhile - traveling to Milan, Italy and Paris, two cities she never has visited before. Doyle has been planning her trip for some time and got her airplane tickets in November. She flies alone, but is meeting up with an Italian friend who lives in Milan who she became acquainted with two years ago during a summer volunteer program in Kenya.
With midterms drawing to a close, many University students are eagerly anticipating Spring Break. Although alternate Spring Break activities are increasingly popular, many students still choose a traditional trip to tropical overseas destinations such as Mexico or the Caribbean.
Everyone comes to the University looking for a niche. Some find theirs in intramural sports or acting troupes, others, in a cappella groups and the mainstream Greek system.
The job hunt is on. But with an abundance of predators and not enough prey, University students are starting to feel the heat of the jungle.
Third-year College student Laura Dozier woke up at 8 a.m. on the Friday before Fall Break not to leave town, but to wait in line. Sleeping bag and snack food in hand, Dozier planned to spend the night on the sidewalk in front of the Wade Apartments office in line with about 50 other students to sign a lease.
Ask average Americans what they've seen in the last four years, and they'll probably give you one of a number of answers.
In no other sport are mallets and wickets so important.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE to ignore these bells when you hear them ringing. Yes, the infamous sound of the Salvation Army bells can now be heard all over town. Indeed, the time of year when society collectively pauses to indulge in the so-called "spirit of giving" has come once again. At the University, it's hardly noticeable.
As the University begins to shake off the cobwebs after Thanksgiving Break, we find that things are getting pretty hectic. Quizzes and papers loom and final exams lurk on the horizon. And, oh yes, the fate of the honor system as we know it hangs in the balance.
The weekend starts tonight. No, it's not time for T.G.I.F yet. Weekend celebrations start Thursday night at the University.
Things got off to a wild start for the Class of 2000 in their first semester when Hurricane Fran stormed through Grounds, causing classes to be cancelled for only the fourth time in University history. Mad Bowl was transformed into a muddy, rain-drenched playground, with students mud sliding, playing football and dancing in knee-deep water. The high winds and pouring rain damaged property and kept Charlottesville in the dark because of power outages that lasted through the weekend.
DURING spring break, my dad informed me that the final tuition check of my undergraduate career had left the Startt family coffers to subsidize my University education. At the time, this news served merely as a reminder of impending separation anxiety - just one more indication that my University career draws quickly to a close. Now, however, I also am reminded that as a student paying out-of-state tuition, my family's dollars - covering 133 percent of my educational costs - fund not only my education, but any number of other financial endeavors at the University.
The Honor Committee's referendum on the seriousness clause, slated to take place from April 3 to 6, is already off to a terrible start. Student Council denied the Committee use of the Council Web server for the referendum at their March 7 meeting, and we have seen little action from the Committee since that time.
