Several student leaders expressed that the past year has proven students can and should be involved in University governance conversations
The U.S. Department of Justice has increased its focus on higher education reform since the onset of 2025. Its investigations focus on universities’ alleged antisemitism, unfair admissions policies favoring minority students, diversity, equity and inclusion programming in violation of federal civil-rights law and harmful foreign influence.
Each year, thousands of new first-years make their way to Grounds. For many, the University is a place of great opportunity — rigorous classes, prestige as one of the top public universities in the United States, a vibrant social scene and well-rounded athletics. Despite the high standards the University has set in nearly all aspects of undergraduate life, some find that dining options on Grounds fall short.
Every summer, a group of University students head to Camp Kesem to make — in the words of many campers and volunteers — “Kesem Magic.” Kesem, a nationwide nonprofit organization, supports children ages six to 18 who have a parent impacted by cancer. With over 115 chapters at colleges in 41 states, the organization is run by passionate college-aged volunteers, providing year-round peer support, a welcoming community and free summer camps.
Comforting tracks often played through headphones in a quiet library or on a sunset car ride are seeing the big stage this summer as familiar favorite musicians are traveling on tour. From the warm breeze of an outdoor venue to the glow of an orange sunset lighting up the stage, summer nights create a perfect atmosphere to listen to an artist’s discography, ranging from classics to newer tracks.
The Cavalier Daily asked University leaders and faculty from across Grounds — deans, executive administrators and governing members — to weigh in on the University’s institutional stability one year after former University President Jim Ryan’s announcement of his resignation June 27, 2025. The Cavalier Daily asked these leaders how events from the past year have shaped the University, influenced its future direction and revealed characteristics that define it.
Virginia’s congressional primaries will take place Aug. 4 this year, marking the first time in over a decade that the Commonwealth is not holding its nominating contests in the month of June. Early voting in these races officially began June 18, meaning Charlottesville voters have begun selecting their party’s candidates for Virginia’s 5th Congressional District. Republican voters are also weighing in on a three-way contest to challenge Sen. Mark Warner (D) in the fall.
The Fall 2026 semester will mark the beginning of the second year of a new pre-major advising system for non-Echols Scholars in the College of Arts and Sciences — Echols Scholars are students in an honors program who are exempt from many general education requirements, including the Engagements. In this new system, first-year students’ first quarter Engagements professors also serve as their advisor until students declare a major.
Pop superstar Olivia Rodrigo returned for her third studio album June 12 with the release of "you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love." The highly anticipated project consists of 13 songs and has a runtime of 51 minutes that leans into and expands on her foundations of turbulent and heartbroken alternative pop with new production styles yet familiar lyrical themes. It tells a story of a relationship from start to end — which fans theorize is about actor Louis Partridge, whom Rodrigo dated for over two years.
The Charlottesville City Council held its final regular meeting of the month Monday evening, where a presentation from City staff detailed that Charlottesville’s greenhouse gas emissions have been consistently on the rise since 2022.
When walking on Charlottesville’s Downtown Mall, visitors and residents may be surprised to see groups of children wearing costumes, huddled around video cameras and supervised by just a few adults. But this unexpected sight is not a lone venture by some young cinephiles — it is the mark of Light House Studio’s Summer Film Academy, where young people ranging from third graders to college freshmen are able to explore the art of filmmaking under the supervision of trained professionals.
Choosing one’s major seems to remain an eternal challenge for all college students. To many, selecting a major is akin to selecting a path in life. However, despite the perceived gravity that comes with major declarations, many students at the University have found a way to dive into interests across disciplines, making the case that one does not have to sacrifice their affinity for the arts in academia.
Since 2022, the infamous Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision — which overruled the constitutional right to obtain an abortion — has prevented women, especially in historically red states, from receiving essential reproductive care. With national reproductive protections gone, several states around the country have passed their own amendments to protect reproductive rights, such as Maryland, Massachusetts and New York. Now, all eyes are on the Commonwealth voters who will decide Nov. 3 whether to approve the Virginia Right to Reproductive Freedom Amendment, which would add a section to the Constitution of Virginia that establishes the right to reproductive freedom.
