FBI National Academy/ UVA MPS Grads

Law enforcement professionals from around the world come together for executive training provided at the FBI National Academy, with the opportunity to pursue an MPS at the University of Virginia. It was great to gather with L.E. classmates and the brilliant UVA faculty to celebrate our monumental accomplishment in 2024!

A typical social gathering on the lawn ! 1978

I don’t specifically remember what this gathering was about but we would often get together on the lawn with groups of friends to socialize. The place to be!

Cocktail party before the ADPi sorority formal! Spring 1978

Back in the day-1978- we had many cocktail parties outside our friend’s lawn room. (Before the drinking age was raised!). Always a lovely spot….the Lawn is a small slice of heaven.

The Virginia Sil’hooettes 35th Anniversary Weekend with 100 past and present Sils

The Virginia Sil’hooettes, UVA’s most award-winning a cappella group, celebrated their 35th anniversary this spring with an entire weekend of events dedicated to celebrating their alumni. Over 100 graduated Sils came back to grounds, including their four founders and many of the original members from the group’s inaugural year in 1989.

License to Graduate

When I was accepted to UVA in December 1990, my dad ordered a personalized license plate to celebrate the Class of 1995 before I had even stepped foot into LeFevre dorm for first year. After finding my car missing the prized plate more than once during my four years on Grounds, I had an extra for display. It seemed only fitting to wear the plate on gravitation day for the final walk down the Lawn. My car still bears the 1995 brand, and I often hear a honk and “Wahoowa” from fellow drivers.
