Fifty-three weeks after it was moved to Holton Plaza to make way for construction related to the Core Campus Project, the iconic George �鶹��Ƶ statue was returned to its home on �鶹��Ƶ’s Wilkins Plaza.

�鶹��Ƶ was named the top young university in the United States in the recently released 2021 Times Higher Education (THE) Young University Rankings.

INTO �鶹��Ƶ offers both undergraduate and graduate pathway programs for international students who want to study at �鶹��Ƶ. A partnership between �鶹��Ƶ and INTO University Partnerships, INTO �鶹��Ƶ supports a diverse group of students, according to its website, “from application to graduation.”

�鶹��Ƶ’s Schar School of Policy and Government will launch its new Race, Politics, and Policy Center in Fall 2021 under the leadership of Professor Michael Fauntroy. Fauntroy, who taught at �鶹��Ƶ for 11 years before joining the faculty at Howard University in 2013, returned to �鶹��Ƶ in June.

As companies throughout the country transition from remote work back to the office, employers can help their employees through the process by giving them a voice and options, said �鶹��Ƶ School of Business professor Victoria Grady.

�鶹��Ƶ is well represented among the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine.

The two-year program allows enlisted servicemembers from every branch of the military to prepare for medical school.

As �鶹��Ƶ faculty members reflect on their experiences teaching during a global pandemic, they say they’ve learned some lessons they’ll bring into the return to a more traditional academic year.

Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam last week lifted the mask requirement for people who have been fully vaccinated against the coronavirus. As a public university, �鶹��Ƶ is complying with the Governor’s order, eliminating face covering and distancing requirements for all fully vaccinated people, effective today, June 2. 

�鶹��Ƶ has been named a military friendly institution by Viqtory, Military Friendly for the 10th year, an important distinction for a university committed to veterans and other nontraditional students.
