Mourners attending a Roman Catholic Mass honoring slain Virginia lacrosse player Yeardley Love were urged Friday to also pray for the player on the men's team who's accused of beating her to death. Father Joseph Scordo told his audience of about 100 at the campus chapel that they should treat even enemies with love and forgiveness. Love's body was found early Monday in her off-campus apartment.
Every new student at the University of Virginia attends an orientation where they break into small groups to discuss sexual consent and respect. October brings a flurry of public events pegged to Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and students are confronted with ubiquitous "red flag" posters. Then in April it's the weeklong Take Back the Night program, with students sharing their own harrowing stories of abuse.
Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli's demand for a wide range of documents related to the work of a former University of Virginia climate scientist has triggered a backlash from academics who consider Cuccinelli's tactic an assault on academic freedom and a threat to the state's competitiveness in scientific research.
The University of Virginia received the No. 1 seed for the men’s national lacrosse tournament less than 24 hours after players attended the funeral of a classmate police said was murdered by one of their teammates.
In April, University of Virginia associate law professor Brandon L. Garrett shared his research about false confessions of people exonerated by DNA with about 90 such people. Garrett traveled to Atlanta to discuss his new paper, which was printed in the Stanford Law Review, at the Innocence Network conference.
Nearly 2,000 mourners joined hands and lifted their voices Saturday morning, not in prayer but in a cheer, filling a cathedral with an inspirational chant once uttered by Yeardley Love on a lacrosse field.

A new research has shown how the immune system's T cells can influence learning and memory. Now, a new study has shown that T cells can level the learning curve by producing a protein that fights inflammation. Learning defects had been reported in mice lacking T cells, but how these cells boosted brain power was unknown. A team led by Jonathan Kipnis at the University of Virginia investigated the activity of these cells in mice trained to find their way through a water maze. Training the mice caused T cells to accumulate in the membrane that surrounds the brain.
The University of Virginia’s Faculty Senate is condemning Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli’s demand that UVa turn over documents related to a former UVa climate scientist.
We knew Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli II (R) had declared war on reality. Now he has declared war on the freedom of academic inquiry as well. We hope that Gov. Robert F. McDonnell (R) and the University of Virginia have the spine to repudiate Mr. Cuccinelli's abuse of the legal code. If they do not, the quality of Virginia's universities will suffer for years to come.
Following the death of a student, apparently at the hands of another, University of Virginia President John T. Casteen III is asking the obvious questions: what did officials know of George Huguely's past behavior, what should they have known, and might they have somehow prevented the death of Yeardley Love?
The president of the University of Virginia will meet with the state's governor to consider tougher laws protecting university students from violence — a response to the death of a senior from Cockeysville who, police say, was killed by her boyfriend. Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell and university President John T. Casteen will discuss potential legislation, McDonnell's office said Thursday. Among the topics may be legislation requiring police to report student arrests to the university.
… Inspired by this kind of enthusiasm, my other company Azure Worldwide has partnered with the University of Virginia to pioneer new technology by developing a totally new kind of interactive video game, the "U.Va. Bay Game" -- which simulates any natural habitat where the players take on the roles of people who live and work in that particular environment.
It looks like the University of Virginia does not plan to resist a subpoena from Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R) asking for documents related to the work of climate scientist and former professor Michael Mann, despite requests from some advocacy groups that it does so.
