A group of students at the University of Virginia are daring to dream. The Latino Student Alliance is trying to raise awareness about a piece of legislation that would allow undocumented students to go to college in the United States. To get their point across, they are not using their voices. Silence and solidarity is what these students want to convey. Close to 30 gathered at Scott Stadium for a silent march Monday morning. Others joined along while en route to the Rotunda.

Coach Mike London has helped the Cavalier football team grow to new heights, and it seems he is climbing the charts when it comes to popularity. "Coach London has done a great job in terms of turning around the program and getting some excitement at the stadium," said Art Fuller while heading to Saturday's game.
For the second year in a row, Virginia used an overtime goal to knock off Michigan State, 3-2, in the NCAA field hockey tournament. This time, it was a little tougher for the Cavaliers. Freshman Elly Buckley scored the tying goal in the second half and the winner in sudden death to send the No. 3 Cavaliers into today’s second round against No. 6 Princeton. Virginia (17-3) trailed for a good portion of the game and sweated out a potential game-winner that was just a bit off before sealing the victory on Saturday at the University Hall Turf Field.
A full two years after the housing-based financial crisis ignited, we again find monetary authorities in the center of the debate over how to deal with an economy still under stress. That realization led me to call together some leading practitioners of monetary affairs to assess how this newfound prominence stacks up against the immense challenges now facing the United States and global economies. Led by former Fed Chairman Paul Volcker, Bank of England Governor Mervyn King, People’s Bank of China Governor Zhou Xiaochuan, former Bank of Japan Governor Toshihiko Fukui and European Centra...
For the first time, researchers at the University of Virginia Health System have imaged the wall of carotid arteries that send blood to the brain while patients are being examined for symptoms consistent with an acute stroke or a mini-stroke (transient ischemic attack or TIA.) What the researchers found contributes much to the current theory about how strokes, and heart attacks as well, occur. Namely, that bleeding into the plaque in the arterial wall leads to strokes, not tight blockages as was once thought in the 1970's and 80's. Prior studies of this type were usually performed weeks or mon...
An analysis by the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission and economists at the University of Virginia concluded that the state would need to attract 160,000 new jobs to break even on revenue, or 12 times more than even their rosiest scenarios can conjure.

The Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia is showing people how to get their ideas off the ground.
