THE SEVENTH time in its history, the University

Honor Committee, and Justin Mutter (below left),
a member of the Class of 2003, are among 32 recipients
of one of the
nation’s most distinguished academic honors.
With 45, U.Va. has more Rhodes Scholars than
any other public university. Rhodes Scholarships
provide two or three years of study
at Oxford,
with a
monetary
value worth approximately $35,000 a year. Sullivan
and Mutter
were selected
from among 904 applicants
nationwide
and will enter the University of Oxford in England
in October 2005. Full

Race
relations at the University have improved dramatically
over the years, but there remains work to be
done. Faculty members interested in working to
further alleviate racial tension, racism, self-segregation
and ignorance are invited to attend an information
session that will outline the formation of such
a group. Full
