In what was perhaps the worst late April Fools’ Day prank of all time, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that it would halt testing for rabies and pause tracking for over two dozen other diseases. The CDC acts as an important reference point for state and local health authorities when diagnosing rabies and other diseases. Unfortunately, this drastic upheaval carries not just political consequences, but real human costs in Virginia and beyond. Testing and tracking programs help doctors confirm suspected cases. Limiting these practices may result in less accurate diagnoses, especially with a disease like rabies where early symptoms can resemble other diseases prior to more severe stages. This is a serious mistake that the Virginia Department of Health will be forced to mitigate.

The J. Sanford Miller Arts Scholars Program fosters a community of growth, collaboration, learning and mentorship for undergraduate students heavily involved in the arts at the University. With applications open for first and second years, students are admitted to study one of five disciplines — Studio Art, Drama, Music, Dance or Creative Writing — with increased access to grants in their fields as well. Before the end of a Miller Arts Scholar’s time at the University, they complete a final project that encompasses their journey throughout the program.
As a new class of graduates walk the Lawn, pops of color will mark the crowd. While the typical graduation fixtures of caps and gowns adorn the soon-to-be-alumni of the University, there is something atypical in the hands of many students — a balloon.
“Imagine you're in a yoga class,” Virginia women’s rowing Coach Wesley Ng tells his crew over the megaphone, his voice cutting through the silence of the morning. “That you're very in-tune with your body.”
If anyone started driving to Richmond at the start of the fourth inning, they probably would have made some half-decent progress before its conclusion. They certainly would have made it well outside the farthest corners of Charlottesville. That is because during the fourth inning, Virginia batted around and then some.
The Fourth-Year Trustees and University administrative members began planning and organizing this year’s graduation weekend over a year in advance, according to Keoni Vega, Class of 2026 president and fourth-year College student. Graduation weekend includes Valedictory Exercises, the Fourth-Year Class Party Friday and the graduation ceremonies that take place Saturday and Sunday.
For fourth-year student leaders, the weeks before graduation are a time to reflect on the contributions of the outgoing class to the University’s long-held tradition of student self-governance. The tradition, often considered unique from other higher education institutions to the University’s experience, affords student-run organizations like Student Council, the University Judiciary Committee and the Honor Committee significant power to sanction their peers or to lobby on behalf of the student body’s needs to other stakeholders.
Each May, thousands of students cross the Lawn for Final Exercises and leave the University as graduates. But for many, their relationship with the University continues through a network of alumni programs, regional events, career resources, reunions and volunteer opportunities coordinated by the U.Va. Alumni Association.
