Excellent article detailing the events from the UVA president's perspective. [/quote]

Yes, an excellent article and thanks for sharing. This really shows how unprepared the University was for these events.  The president planned for students on the lawn to be protected by one faculty member.  That's outrageous. Where was law enforcement? Dr. Sabato is an excellent professor and pundit, but he is no substitute for trained security professionals.  Then it appears she trusted Nazis and klansmen to keep their word on where and when they would march. These dispicabe human beings can never be trusted. You have anticipate that they will lie and deceive to get their way. As an alum, I am embarrassed that the University was so negligent in putting the lives of the students at such risk. [/quote]

That article is precisely why admissions will be affected. It shows UVA as willfully negligent or at least inept. Parents, white, asian, black or otherwise want to know their college students will  be safe. This article does nothing to make them think they will be.[/quote]
