A perennial NCAA powerhouse, Virginia field hockey routinely attracts players not only from all over the country, but also the world. Yet, despite representing a state school that pledges to maintain a two-thirds ratio of Virginians, the program’s in-state recruitment numbers have waned in the last few years — right now, there is just one Virginian on the team. But high school junior Brayden Johnston — the Cavaliers’ new recruit in the class of 2027 — just changed that.

Charlottesville’s robust transportation system is one of the strongest achievements of the city. Charlottesville Area Transport, the University Transportation Service and Airbus are all readily available for students to navigate within and outside of the city comfortably without their own car. However, the Federal Department of Transportation is set to undergo significant deregulation after President Donald Trump’s addition of two new executive orders in February of 2025. These regulations are characterized by the removal of environmental regulations, reduction in funding and slashing of jobs in the department. These significant changes will threaten students’ ability to utilize public transportation throughout the city and Virginia if unchecked.

Life is not easy being a submarine sandwich investigative journalist. The sandwich game is dry in Charlottesville — the old joints are vanishing, and every cohort of first-years endures more bowl-based food. Slop in a trough. All my buddies have moved onto bigger and better things — bagels, for example. But as a longtime Subway fanatic myself, it was a dream come true to have a woman in a comically large hat strut into The Cavalier Daily office. The cigarette butt lazily hanging off my lips nearly fell to the floor when she exclaimed that she had a story. A sandwich story.

Released in theaters nationwide on June 13, A24’s proverbial second date with Celine Song features the triumvirate of Dakota Johnson, Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal in a glossy meditation on the perils and pitfalls of modern dating. “Materialists” is incredibly pleasant to look at –– which makes sense for a film about beautiful people and beautiful things, and the natural desire thereof –– but often falls short of holding any deeper meaning.

These year-long agreements may leave students paying rent even when they are away, such as if they are studying abroad or living at home over the summer.

When students arrive at the University, they might feel pressure to have a strictly laid-out plan for their course of study. However, many students change their initial plans and switch their intended or declared major after taking a variety of courses. According to the National Center for Education Statistics, within three years of initial enrollment, 30 percent of undergraduates who had declared their major changed it at least once. Furthermore, students may change their minds many times between the time they arrive at the University and when they officially declare at the end of their second year.
