The College Anonymous Confession Board, a Web site commonly known as College ACB, has recently raised concerns on Grounds. Even though a number of potentially derogatory posts, such as sorority rankings and racial slurs, have been noted on the site in the past, a recent list of possibly gay students heightened tensions among several University community members, especially those listed on the board. The College ACB site consists of student-run message boards composed entirely of anonymous posts in which students can both comment and vote on the messages of other posters from their colleges. “It’s basically just to promote a student controlled space where people can say whatever they want without fear of social backlash,” said Peter Frank, current owner of College ACB and freshman at Weslyean University.
As of Monday afternoon, 17 cases of swine flu have been reported this semester among University students, said Student Health Executive Director James Turner.

The University Judiciary Committee entered the world of new media Aug. 26, launching its own Youtube channel to better educate students about the organization's frequently misunderstood system. The channel is currently home to five videos that range in topics from "Filing a Complaint" to "Judge Information." Each video acts as an instructional video, in which either University students or UJC members learn the steps necessary to navigate through a certain area of UJC's Web site, co-Senior Data Manager Gavin Reddick said.

Several of the University's first black students in the 1950s and 1960s returned to Grounds Friday to speak about their past University experiences, the challenges they faced and the institutional changes they have seen since departing Charlottesville. "The Early Days Celebration" began with a discussion panel, titled "Looking Back, Moving Forward," which was held Friday. "Today we honor those who made it, who could get in, and who went on to do great things with their lives," said Maurice Apprey, dean of the Office of African-American Affairs, in his opening statement. Panelists included 1969 graduate David Temple, who was the first black student to integrate the fraternity system; John Merchant, the first black student to graduate from the Law school in 1958; and Dr. Vivian Pinn of the class of 1967, the first black woman to graduate from the medical school. The discussion featured accounts of racism that students had experienced during their time here.
The University Law School's entering class of 2012 is its most diverse class ever. In Jason Trujillo's first year as the Law School's senior assistant dean for admissions in financial aid, the Law School managed to improve both its academic profile and its diversity simultaneously by actively recruiting students who were offered admission to the University.
