The Charlottesville City Council convened Monday for its first regular meeting since a March 30 affordable housing rally took place outside City Hall. At the meeting, residents and University students packed the chamber, calling on the Council to amend the zoning code to further incentivize affordable housing and limit private luxury apartments marketed to students to certain sections of the City.
Coming off a dominant 4-0 senior day win against No. 57 Louisville, No. 3 Virginia entered the day looking to close out the regular season in style. Facing off against Virginia Tech, they did exactly that. What seemed a lopsided matchup on paper swiftly proved to be as the Cavaliers (20-3, 12-1 ACC) cruised past the Hokies (6-15, 3-10 ACC), battling hard to secure the doubles point before crushing their opponents in singles to secure the victory,

In the transformed pine scrub of Calusa Pines Golf Club in Naples, Fla., eight teams battled for the title in a three-day, 54-hole tournament. The Calusa Cup, hosted by Iowa, featured No. 2 Virginia’s final road tournament of the season on one of the premier courses in the United States.
The second pitch of the game was a Louisiana routine groundball to senior infielder Jade Hylton, her throw a little harder than normal. The fourth pitch was a line drive to Hylton who snagged it out of the air. The ninth pitch was a strikeout looking to give No. 21 Virginia its third out of the inning. Running off the field, the team was amped and ready to take out some demons after a dreadful weekend in Durham, N.C. — at first, it didn’t look like they were going to be able to.

Over the past year, trust in the Board of Visitors has been strained. Student and faculty frustrations regarding a lack of transparency, proper governance and political partisanship have run rampant since the Justice Department forced former University President Jim Ryan to resign last summer. In the months that followed, the Faculty Senate, nine University deans, 181 faculty members and numerous student groups, including the Student Council, spoke out, entreating the Board to pause their search for the University’s next president until community concerns could be addressed. The Board’s decision to move forward despite these protests suggests that the existing student and faculty advisory roles on the Board are not sufficient in ensuring community representation and priorities are met. To correct this, student and faculty representatives on the Board must be given voting rights.

Each spring season, thousands of admitted students flock to Charlottesville wondering whether they can see themselves on Grounds for the next four years.

No. 13 Virginia welcomed interstate foe James Madison to Disharoon Park Tuesday evening for a midweek contest for a potential return to the winner’s column following a series loss to then-No. 7 Florida State over the weekend.
On April 21, Virginia will become the latest state to consider a measure to redraw its congressional district in the middle of the typical decade-long redistricting cycle. The referendum, supported by the Democratic-controlled Virginia General Assembly and Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D), follows on the heels of other states either attempting to redraw or actually redrawing their district maps. States such as Texas, California, Missouri, North Carolina and Ohio have already redrawn their maps, while others have initiated the process to do so. By no means has this been a smooth process, either. Rather than this issue producing a reasoned, democratic discussion on the merits and drawbacks of mid-decade redistricting, voters have been inundated with hyperpartisan language that sometimes intentionally misrepresents the redistricting issue. This environment of invective is unproductive and risks simplifying an issue of grave consequence for Virginia’s political influence.
The Board of Visitors Finance Committee hosted and livestreamed a tuition workshop and public comment session Monday morning, in which Jennifer Wagner Davis, University executive vice president and chief operating officer, and College at Wise Chancellor Donna Henry proposed tuition increases for the 2026-27 academic year.
