No. 13 Virginia women's rowing goes 11-0 on weekend
We're just as loath to quote Mr. Jefferson from beyond the graveas anyone, but we can't help but think the new school of publicpolicy aligns well with his original vision. For a university built upon a legacy of public service, what better way to fulfill that legacy than to provide a place for the world's best scholars to come, debate the intricacies public policy and learn the words to the Good Ol' Song.
Despite initial concerns, the Buildings and Grounds Committee of the Board of Visitors approved the construction of the Frederic W. Scott Memorial, to be located within the McCormick Road housing area, last Friday.

Pause over this quotation for a second: "In the days of Thomas Jefferson, no one thought that black people would want to attenda university. No one thought women would want to go to a university, either." This delightful anecdote came not from Ed Ayers' final lecture or the University Guide Service as you might have expected, but from a section of the University's official Web site entitled "U.Va.

The article, written on behalf of the University by author Susan Tyler Hitchcock, who received her Ph.D. in English from the University in 1978, attempts to encapsulate University history in a few pithy paragraphs styled in that graceful, familiar Sesame Street syntax ("One night in 1840

U.S. Congressman Virgil Goode, R-Va., was issued a citizens' indictment April 6 after allegedly failing to meet the demands of constituents protesting his support for the war in Iraq.
Graduate fellowships should be designed with graduate students in mind. This seems like an obvious point, but the Jefferson Fellowship -- a graduate fellowship similar to the undergraduate Jefferson Scholarship -- fails to bear in mind the need for qualified faculty, not alumni, to choose which students receive the fellowship's generous funding and which don't.

As the great pranksters of history have taught us, the deftly performed prank requires wit, ingenuity and a keen ability to distinguish the difference between a funny joke and a not-so-funny felony. Great pranks needn't be obscene or destructive. A great prank probably should not involve a crime. Whoever hacked the precious Hokie Bird statue off at the ankles and carted it back to Charlottesville, essentially destroying it in the process, obviously lacks a well-honed sense of subtlety. In fact, the decision to steal and destroy an item valued at almost $7,500 illustrates the lack of judgment for which some fraternity men are known.
