Dr. Tiffany King, a tenured professor in the University of Virginia's Department of Women, Sexuality, and Gender, spoke in a virtual symposium "At the Edge of Each Other's Battles: Puerto Rican, Palestinian, Black, and Indigenous Futures.”

Whatever UVA leadership might have said to people in private, their words and actions have been ineffectual in altering the reality that pro-Palestinian students feel comfortable wearing their badges of loyalty while most Jews have stopped wearing theirs.

Sometimes we hear from alumni who believe UVA has gone so far down the rabbit hole of wokeness that it's a lost cause. UVA is not a lost cause. If it were, we wouldn't be wasting our time with it.

By manipulating the Board agenda, the Jim Ryan administration has managed to avoid any meaningful accountability at the University of Virginia.

The Racial Equity Task Force, a 2020 document that transformed governance at the University of Virginia, listed 12 top priorities for addressing the legacy of historical racism. One was to address "serious challenges to racial equity in staff hiring, wages, retention, promotion, and procurement" but the report cited no actual evidence of disparities in pay.

Back in 2020, I was saddened and appalled when a student living on the Lawn scrawled "F--- UVA" in massive letters on her door. Where did this animosity originate? How had such thinking gained traction at Mr. Jefferson's University? The EscapeRoom exhibit provides part of the answer.

Meet Marisa Williamson. The Harvard-educated assistant professor in the University of Virginia art department works in video, image-making, installation and performance art around themes of history, race, feminism, and technology.

UVA is in the midst of a $1 billion DEI program. Student tuition, progressive third-party foundations, and taxpayer money fund this massive initiative. However, the tenets of DEI are fundamentally anti-American and radical.

We applaud OpenTheBooks for its extensive research and for its willingness to hold the Ryan administration's feet to the fire over the number of DEI administrators employed by UVA. But we must remember that there is an even bigger story to be told.

The problem at UVA is not showcasing Bartov's perspective. The problem is showcasing only one side of a contentious debate.

Meet Melody Pannell, UVA Health's Director of Diversity and Community Engagement. Her job is to "cultivate an inclusive community, address social disparities and health inequities, and empower others.”

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion staff at the University of Virginia downplayed concerns about Tessa Farmer, an anthropology professor who reportedly offered extra credit to students to attend a Students for Justice in Palestine-organized teach-in.

A review of upcoming events at the University of Virginia shows vividly how UVA has become an intellectual monoculture that explores only ideas that fall within a narrow partisan and ideological range.

Was "student safety" a legitimate reason to reject a call for open debate about one of the most contentious set of issues to afflict UVA in years?

OpenTheBooks' exposé on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion costs at the University of Virginia is generating loads of attention.

For anyone interested in UVA governance, it can be immensely helpful to consult Board of Visitors proceedings. Archiving the video is essential to maintaining transparency and accountability, and if UVA won't do it, The Jefferson Council will.

This grading measure is worthy of attention by the Board of Visitors.

Tens of millions of dollars in student tuition and taxpayer monies are flowing into promoting anti-American notions and radical philosophies that judge the color of one’s skin instead of the content — and competence — of their character.

What do you get when you turn over management of organizational culture to an army of bureaucrats?
