The Virginia football team will take the field for its first game of the year Saturday. The start of a new season always draws predictions from fans and a degree of suspense about how the team will fare, but the uncertainty is particularly high this year.

Today, The Cavalier Daily features a Focus piece about the University's authority over its online network as it relates to student privacy concerns. The feature outlines how the University's department of Information Technology and Communication justifies and explains its stance on Internet activity and cites an example of how a student was caught cheating on an exam by way of an ITC investigation.

Any information of significance that students provide will be locked in a "password-protected" database. The policy has led some to question if administrators are encroaching upon students' privacy.
