This weekend, our beloved University and its surrounding Charlottesville community were under siege.
Ordinarily, you come to Streaking the Lawn to catch up on the latest happenings in Virginia athletics. You read our analysis and you laugh at our jokes. But there’s nothing funny about what transpired this weekend.
As we followed along on social and national media, our hearts ached in support of the University and Charlottesville communities - indeed for all of America. What happened this weekend in Charlottesville was not a protest. It wasn’t a rally, and it certainly wasn’t a display of unity.
