I am writing on behalf of the University of Virginia's Department of Athletics to apologize for the use of an image of a Native American in the pre-game video at last week's game against the College of William & Mary. William & Mary relinquished its use of the "Indians" nickname and its American Indian mascot in the 1980s.

I have a minor issue with the ongoing gubernatorial race in my home state of Virginia. Let me be clear.

AS THE hunt to replace President John T. Casteen III begins, the search committee should keep three priorities in mind: intellectual capital, human capital, and financial capital.
Due to a production error, yesterday's Opinion page featured several outdated pieces of content, including the lead editorial and the day's letters to the editor.

AN INTERESTING article by Time magazine's Amanda Ripley regarding the September 11 attacks outlines how much a life is worth after death.
