Midway through conference play, Virginia men’s lacrosse is on a trajectory toward its worst season in Coach Lars Tiffany’s nine seasons at the helm. At 5-6 and 0-2 in the ACC, it is the program’s worst record through 11 games since an identical mark by the 2013 team, four years before Tiffany’s arrival.
With a gruesome series loss against conference foe Duke and a humiliating midweek loss to Liberty in Lynchburg Tuesday, the potential for season-ending catastrophe loomed large.

Seeing my time at the University and with The Cavalier Daily come to an end can be summed up into one word — weird. With nostalgia in full force, it is tempting for me to want to wrap up my four years in a neat little bow and proclaim that I have finished the best four years of my life! The truth is, my four years have been a struggle. I have seen the highest of highs and the lowest and lows. I have felt that I could never be good enough or something about me was irrefutably wrong. I have spent countless hours here feeling lost or worried. I won’t get those hours back.
Hundreds of students walked out of classes Wednesday midday and gathered at the south steps of the Rotunda to call for an end to the occupation of Palestine and the release of Mahmoud Khalil — a graduate student activist recently detained by immigration authorities. Protesters also demanded that the University commit to protecting all of its students’ right to free speech.

Tuesday’s Student Council meeting was the final general body meeting of the 78th term. The meeting featured updates of the year in review from outgoing executive members as well as a speech from Kenyon R. Bonner, vice president and chief student affairs officer, who reflected on his experience working with this student organization. The Council also passed three resolutions — the first to limit vehicular traffic on McCormick Road, the second to send out a feedback form to students regarding snow safety and the third to approve four new Contracted Independent Organizations, including University Guides Services, a former Special Status Organization.
At the start of this semester, Library Student Council surveyed students in Shannon, Clemons and Brown libraries. We displayed posters welcoming students to share how much they paid for textbooks and how they felt about the amount they paid by placing stickers on a graph. The stickers were labeled for feelings about their textbook costs — either good, okay or bad. Most feelings, regardless of cost? “Bad.” But why?
Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin removed appointee Bert Ellis from the University’s Board of Visitors Wednesday, following a meeting the two had Tuesday. Youngkin announced plans to appoint Ken Cuccinelli, who served as deputy secretary of Homeland Security and director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services under President Trump’s first term, to the Board as Ellis’s replacement.
Across his previous head coaching stops, Coach Ryan Odom has toted a somewhat fluid play style, opting more often to adapt to his players than to enforce a rigid system. But one thing has always stuck out.
Tucked inside the historic Dinsmore Inn on Main Street, Farm Bell Kitchen delivers traditional Southern flavors and a comforting, inviting atmosphere. With a modern rustic coffee bar and a brunch menu full of alluring options, it’s a great spot for a nice meal with friends, parents or someone special.
Ladies and gentlemen, the most delicate time of the year is upon us — breakup season. The Valentine’s Day propaganda has fully departed all pharmacies and grocery stores, and what’s left of the spring is a graveyard for relationships young and old. Just a few months ago, I myself dug a hole in the relationship cemetery. Then, only a day after my own breakup, my best friend’s semester-long situationship concluded. And finally, not long after this relationship’s death, my roommate called it quits on her three-year-long relationship. Perhaps, these timely splits were a result of the long-awaited promise of a “Hot Girl Summer” drifting closer or the life contemplation that comes along with major rejections.
Virginia’s women’s lacrosse team has, so far, experienced a highly difficult schedule — the ACC itself currently features five teams who sit within the top 10 of the NCAA’s rankings. The Cavaliers are one of them, holding strong at No. 9 with a 8-4 record. However, three of those losses were against ACC opponents which has relegated Virginia to seventh place in the conference standings. In order to earn a top postseason seed, a triumphant push is needed.
As incoming first-year students make their tours of Grounds and begin to think about their first semester courses, an introductory calculus course is a common selection to fulfill quantification requirements. However, what eager students may not be aware of is the growth-based grading system which is being tested in these courses, specifically MATH 1190 and 1210. In this model, a randomly selected half of the class concentrates on mastering specific mathematical skills — rather than acing exams, growth-based students aim to meet particular criteria in assessment “targets.” Although this innovative approach promises to revolutionize the way success is measured, its implementation presents significant challenges which have tangibly disadvantaged students along the way.
A four-game losing streak over the weekend against Duke shook the confidence of this Virginia baseball team, but a midweek matchup at Liberty was a welcome chance to regain momentum, to defeat the Flames (18-8, 1-2 Conference USA) for the sixth consecutive time.
