The plan this season is to keep star junior guard Kymora Johnson airborne less often, but she closed the first pre-practice huddle of the fall with a flying chest bump. After averaging nearly 37 minutes per game last season, Virginia’s All-ACC guard finally has reinforcements within the Cavalier ranks.
Football season is already in full swing at Scott Stadium, and as the leaves begin to change, cuffing season also takes to the field.
University students predictably hit the ground running with their schoolwork as soon as they return to Grounds. This, combined with balancing extracurriculars and social life, can leave students feeling stretched thin.
When the McIntire School of Commerce expanded its curriculum to three years long — and grew its student body by roughly 400 — a corresponding increase in its physical presence on Grounds accompanied the change. The 86,000-square-foot Shumway Hall, funded by a $30 million gift from the Chris and Carrie Shumway Foundation, has been the largest addition to the Breeden Commerce Grounds. The building’s construction was accommodated by a demolition and renovation to pre-existing Cobb Hall, which now sits just across Shumway on the southeast corner of the Lawn.
This semester, Ellie’s Country Club on the Corner welcomed crowds for watch parties of the third season of “The Summer I Turned Pretty” every Wednesday evening, giving avid fans and newcomers alike the opportunity to experience the show’s weekly release in a lively, communal setting.
The University recently announced that its Honor the Future campaign, launched in 2019 under former President Jim Ryan, raised $6 billion — surpassing its original goal by more than $1 billion and marking the largest fundraising effort in University history. This milestone reflects an extraordinary level of alumni and donor engagement, and it has already supported a range of ambitious scholarships, research projects and academic initiatives on Grounds. These successes underscore how fundraising does not just come with resources, but also the responsibility for leaders to direct them in a way that prioritizes student experiences and makes the University’s resources more accessible to the community.
As a fresh semester begins, second chances seem to be everywhere. Perhaps you are extending them to your first-year roommate who always demands to close the blinds. Or, maybe you cut some slack to the TA you run into in the Bodo’s line who graded your final way too low in May. For many students, however, retaking a class is the only second chance they are opting to extend.
The Honor Committee met Sunday, with the primary agenda items being the introduction of three new representatives and a report on the end of support officer recruitment. The Committee now has a full composition of 30 representatives for the first time since the term began in April.
The University’s presidential search committee held its second meeting Monday, where it heard updates on the search from external search firm Isaacson, Miller. The firm shared that it is moving through the steps of the search faster than expected and that it is dedicated to preserving the University’s commitments to academic freedom, student self-governance and affordability throughout the process.
When University students contemplate what to bring to school, they typically weigh which smaller objects — from shirts to desk decor — are worth the suitcase space. An even bigger choice these students face, though, is whether or not their car should make the journey back to Charlottesville with them.
In the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination Sept. 10, there has been renewed debate at colleges and universities nationwide about free speech and political messaging in higher education. Multiple universities have let faculty and staff members go, expelled students or promised to investigate and discipline educators who have responded to Kirk’s death “inappropriately.”

Friday’s clash with No. 8 Florida State marks the first time in the Coach Tony Elliott era that a top-10 opponent is coming to Scott Stadium.
Coach Steve Swanson has a favorite line.
All breaths were held and eyes were locked on junior midfielder Mia Abello with 54.6 seconds remaining in the game Sunday. She stood over the ball as if she was the only player on the entire field. That was not the case, however, as Syracuse freshman goalkeeper Tane King stood seven yards away from her and in the cage, at the ready to protect the net from a last minute Abello invasion.
When soccer players enter college and stare down the barrel of a compressed two-week preseason, it can be a struggle to acclimate quickly and make an early impact. But, for men’s soccer’s freshman forward Nicholas Simmonds, that was not the case.
In their September meeting earlier this year, the Board of Visitors’ Audit, Compliance and Risk Committee laid out a promising new proposal through which the University will retire its patchwork of discretionary privacy rules and replace them with a single, comprehensive privacy framework. This step forward is significant for all stakeholders at the University — after all, elevating privacy from scattered provisions to a coherent, enforceable framework is more than administrative housekeeping. Rather, it is a substantive step toward safeguarding student autonomy in an era when it is most at risk.
