An
FBI investigation to determine the meaning
of graffiti found last week on U.Va.’s
Beta Bridge has revealed no links
to recent racial incidents or to the Ku
Klux Klan, as first speculated. U.Va. President
John T. Casteen III requested that the
FBI review photos of the graffiti images,
which included, among other things, derogatory
images of women, a red eye and the words “G
Wizard,” “G Society,” and “G
Bug.” “I am grateful to the
many people who worked overtime for several
days to resolve what had become a sensitive
public issue in our community,” said Casteen. Full

This
summer, a group of U.Va. students and faculty
got the chance to step back from the academic
and theoretical side of feminism and see
it through the eyes of women who make it
their jobs to protect and fight for their
rights every day. The group traveled to
Seoul, South Korea, to attend the Ninth
International Interdisciplinary Congress
on Women, held June 19-24, which coincided
with U.Va.’s first international
women’s studies course, ““Local Feminisms,
Global Perspectives.” Full
