the realization that many will graduate having
incurred some type of debt. That’s where
Yvonne Hubbard steps up to the plate. As director
of U.Va.’s Student Financial Services, Hubbard
believes in making education affordable for all
students regardless of their ability to pay. “It’s
important for the University to offer equal access”
to all students, said Hubbard. She served as an
architect for U.Va.’s new financial aid
plan — Access UVa — recently approved
by the Board of Visitors. Full

six consecutive years of gains, median adjusted
gross income for married couples took a dip in
2001. A new report by U.Va.’s Weldon Cooper
Center for Public Service shows that a 1.9 percent
income growth rate could not keep pace with a
2.8 percent annual inflation rate, causing a loss.
“The main reason for the drop was the reversal
of fortune for persons who had previously benefited
from the stock market boom,” said John L.
Knapp, the center’s director of business
and economics research. Full
