In light of recent events and the impending arrival of the new semester, the University of Virginia is making every effort to ensure that students can thrive in a safe and secure environment. UVA President Teresa A. Sullivan has repeatedly addressed the importance of promoting safety and security on Grounds following Friday and Saturday’s events, and as president, she’s stated, “Because we value safety, all of us in this community share a sense of responsibility for ourselves and for one another.” |

Conspicuously absent: Firearm safety training, situational awareness & defensive shooting techniques, as well as a concealed carry permit.
The rest of that list is either impotent or after-the-fact. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
