In the final year of an athlete’s collegiate career, there are plenty of emotions surrounding their season. Many feel as though there are goals still left to achieve, plenty of ambitions for their team’s regular season and hopes for a playoff appearance.
After losing each of the first two games in their weekend series against Pitt, No. 10 Virginia baseball needed a win to salvage its road trip. But the series finale felt like more of the same from the first two games as the Cavaliers (29-16, 12-12 ACC) fell 7-3 to the Panthers (28-14, 10-11 ACC).
Few musicians have left a cultural footprint as enduring and globally recognized as Michael Jackson. As a result, any cinematic portrayal of his life faces the challenge of striking a delicate balance between homage and honest storytelling. “Michael,” a heavily anticipated biopic depicting the life of the King of Pop from his childhood stardom to solo rise, promised the former — revealing detailed reenactments of the singer’s most famous performances, outfits and songs in trailers and early press releases. Following the film’s Friday release, it is apparent that while it shines in the homage, it ultimately falters in its storytelling, struggling to compile a cohesive narrative that delves deeper into the star’s life.
Third-year College student Ella Gilmore assumed the role of chair of the University Board of Elections April 1 amid the appeals process tied to the 2026 Student Council presidential election. The case — which was reviewed by the University Judicial Review Board for the second time and received its final decision April 27 — has drawn attention to UBE procedures, including its handling of complaints, appeals and transparency to the student body.
The General Assembly reconvened Wednesday to act upon Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s (D) recommended amendments to bills proposed in the 2026 legislative session. The House of Delegates and state Senate accepted the majority of Spanberger’s recommendations, according to VPM, but legislators did not accept amendments to marquee bills on gun control, drug affordability and collective bargaining.

The final stretch of the spring semester can be both an exciting and stressful period, especially for soon-to-be-graduating fourth-year students. With final exercises rapidly approaching, some graduates may find themselves heading towards an uncertain future as they leave the place they have called home and enter the so-called “real world.” These final weeks may be difficult to process, but these four songs can provide an outlet for those complicated emotions. Together, they speak to the importance of cherishing past memories while preparing for what lies ahead.
For the first time since 2021, no Virginia football alumni were selected in the NFL Draft. As of Sunday, though, five Cavaliers signed undrafted free agent deals and five more received invitations to an organization’s rookie camp.
University Programs Council hosts annual events, Wahoo Welcome and Springfest, featuring artists, comedians, student bands and more to celebrate the beginning and end of the academic year. Past performers have included acts such as Peach Pit and Sean Kingston, to more recent names such as Quavo and Andrew Dismukes, all bringing energy and entertainment to Grounds. This week, we look back at some of the entertainers who have had the pleasure to take the stage and connect with students over the years through artistry.
Recently, the Albemarle County School Board voted to pass a policy that instructs middle school and high school administrators to classify clubs into “co-curricular” and “non-curricular” clubs. By their definition, non-curricular clubs are ones that the board determines are affiliated with a political, religious or special interest motive. Co-curricular organizations are clubs that are deemed by the board to extend school curriculum and supplement course material — the board highlighted performing arts groups, language clubs and art activities as examples of this. This classification comes with new stipulations for “non-curricular” clubs, consisting of limited teacher involvement, guest speaker appearances only after school hours and potential restrictions on access to funding. At a surface level, this policy can be seen as a valid attempt to address legitimate concerns about hateful speech and student safety, but the problem lies in its execution. The new distinction between “co-curricular” and “non-curricular” clubs creates vague and deleterious gray areas that risk undermining student expression.
The Charlottesville City Council heard a report from 3TP Ventures — a community planning consultancy firm — and Neighborhood Development Services on possible changes to the City’s Affordable Dwelling Unit Monitoring and Procedures Manual at a regular meeting Monday. The report suggested increasing the fees private student housing developers pay to support affordable housing in the City.
Folk-pop singer-songwriter Noah Kahan released his latest project Friday after two years with the album, “The Great Divide.” Kahan is known for his viral tracks that deeply resonate with audiences for their authenticity and lyricism. This personal work — a story of masterful songwriting and vulnerability — contains 17 tracks with a total runtime of one hour and 17 minutes.
On this episode of On Record, we sit down with Lela Garner, sustainability manager of student outreach and engagement at U.Va. Sustainability. Garner discusses sustainability initiatives on Grounds, the 2030 U.Va. Sustainability Plan and Earth Month celebrations.
All it takes is one round. One round of precise, explosive golf can provide the momentum needed to survive and advance. The Cavaliers were not going to beat No. 18 Stanford after the first 18 holes. But they didn’t have to.
April 21 marked yet another setback for any sense of political stability or restraint in the Commonwealth of Virginia. When Democrats campaigned for statewide office in November, they hammered home a message of affordability, pragmatism and a return to normal governance after years of turbulence. Yet, only a few months into Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s term, the reality appears strikingly different. Instead of measured, consensus-driven leadership, Democrats have treated Virginians to a Nicolae Ceausescu fever dream. Rather than addressing real concerns like the rising cost of living and economic uncertainty, Democrats seem hellbent on destroying Virginia’s political institutions and violently muzzling half of the state with one of the most egregiously gerrymandered maps in the nation.
Broadly speaking, Virginia has performed well. This is the No. 10 team in the country for a reason. However, in a strange twist, the Cavaliers (29-15, 12-11 ACC) have been prone to the occasional blowout loss — as seen against Charlotte and Boston College.
Virginia cruised through its initial run of ACC competition, downing North Carolina and Syracuse in its first two conference series. After a sweep of Pitt in their third series, the Cavaliers (35-12, 12-10 ACC) entered the toughest stretch of their season — series against No. 12 Duke, No. 16 Virginia Tech and No. 23 Clemson — with plenty of momentum.
Massive whimsical creatures took over Arts Grounds and the Rotunda Thursday evening as a celebration of students’ semester-long work. The Stan Winston and Steve Warner Festival of the Moving Creature was first hosted at the University in 2013 before its revival in 2024 — and has since dazzled crowds annually with puppets large and small. This year’s creatures were brought to life Thursday as student puppeteers gave out high-fives to children and onlookers.
