As the United States accustoms itself to the drastic changes which this new presidency has brought, the shift in environmental policies has been especially notable, with 31 deregulatory changes that will be made in the upcoming days. From reconsidering power plant emissions standards to potentially eliminating the greenhouse gas reporting requirements, these changes will have dire consequences for the environment. Universities have also been impacted by these changes — most notably, Executive Order 14008, which integrated climate change education into curricula and advised universities to embrace more sustainable practices, has been rescinded. In this increasingly concerning political climate which has de-emphasized sustainability, the University is steadfastly continuing to work toward its sustainability goals, something which is worthy of commendation.

While Virginia showed a much stronger performance than its previous outing against Boston College, the Cavaliers were still unable to stop the highest scoring offense in the nation, losing 7-17 to the Eagles.

After it all — the flabbergasting early losses, the seesaw of drudgery, the bright starts in conference games that dimmed and then darkened in the second half — it comes down to this, to one game, a chance to somehow salvage a postseason berth.

Since the beginning of my time here at the University, I’ve consistently observed a certain predicament be a central conversation of premature relationships — the “body count.” For those unfamiliar with the phrase, according to a well-vetted source, the Urban Dictionary, a body count conventionally refers to “how many people you’ve had sex with.”

Now, it is Griffin and Lara — the twin siblings, anchoring the defense of the Virginia men's and women's lacrosse squads in their own right, just like their older brother once did. And this spring, for the first time in their college careers, they are doing it together.

Homelessness in Charlottesville has nearly doubled since 2017, rising from approximately 115 to 228 unhoused people. Yet even as the crisis has grown, the city has continued to focus its resources on temporary relief rather than long-term solutions, leading to a deepened cycle of instability. Most recently, it slashed housing services by 57 percent in its 2025 budget — a move that undercuts the very infrastructure needed to break that cycle. The city has made several past efforts to reduce homelessness, but the growing number of unhoused people suggests that these temporary solutions are simply not enough. We cannot afford to treat housing as a solely temporary fix — it is imperative that local officials invest in permanent solutions as well.

After an exciting senior day and a much-needed series win against Louisville over the weekend, No. 25 Virginia returned to action Tuesday for a midweek showdown at James Madison.

In today’s Hollywood scene, big-budget movie studios are increasingly prone to leaning on commercially safe, but creatively devoid projects. In particular, this has led to a drastic increase in sequels, reboots and spin-offs. “The Legend of Ochi,” the newest adventure-fantasy film by independent studio A24, proves that original narratives deserve to be told on screen, even if they rely heavily on works from the past.
