Why didn’t the URPD contact students when there was a person with a knife on campus?
At the University of Richmond, it is easy to get trapped into what I will call social bubbles. For example, I’m a Black woman and a senior on campus.
Dear Maddy, I don’t know if I can keep eating DHall food. What are some recipes or restaurants that you love?
To me, it was all foreign. In high school, I attended a few birthday parties here and there. But the students here were hungry for parties, and fraternities were ready to serve.
Hypothetically, if UR were to rebrand and get a new mascot what should it be? The squirrel, the owl, dhall cat, the geese, or something totally diff?
Dear Maddy, Do I need to graduate with a job already lined up? In other words, how do I not feel like a failure if I’m the only one without any concrete plans for post grad?
One of the first things I’ll say is that it may not be easy. Whether it’s a breakup with a boyfriend or personal family conflicts, college life seems more challenging while navigating relationships.
How do you stop yourself from crying when you think about graduation? Also, how many tickets do we get?
As a rule, I try not to think about my regrets too often, but there are actually several things I wish I would have done differently during my time at the University of Richmond.
The Center for Student Involvement hosted a grand opening tour of The Cave on April 9. The lodge, formerly used by Sigma Alpha Epsilon, will be available for all registered student organizations to use starting in the fall.
