The
University’s January Term or ‘J-term,’ will
run from Tuesday, Jan. 3 to Friday, Jan.
13, 2006. This two-week period will give
students an opportunity to study topics
for which their
schedules might not otherwise allow.
Classes will be held on Saturday, Jan.
7. This calendar adjustment allows two
weekdays between the end of J-term and
the beginning of the spring semester, Wednesday,
Jan. 18, and will eliminate the need for
class on Monday, Jan. 16, Martin Luther
King Jr. Day. Final Exercises 2007 will
be held on May 20. Further information
about the 2006-2007 academic
calendar will be distributed
and posted online soon.

It’s
hard to fathom the millions of children
in Kenya who spend their every moment on
the streets, living on sidewalks,
at dump
sites and in sewers, often afflicted with
festering wounds and disease. Kenya native
Wambui Jackie Chege (above) was merely
a child herself when, at age 12, she began
reaching
out to street children. Now an adult, Chege
is on a quest to save the lives of the
more than 60,000 orphaned children who
roam the streets of Nairobi. Chege visited
U.Va. on Nov. 9 to speak about her work. Full
story.
