Remarks by the Rector

The Rector began the meeting by thanking the chairs of the Honor Committee and the University Judiciary Committee, Laura Howard and Harper Jones respectively, for speaking so candidly and with such eloquence at the Academic and Student Life Committee meeting. He said we have exceptional students at this University who balance optimism with the future of the great university. He said this university has been fortunate to have great people work and serve in the University and on the Board that care deeply about this special place. He said that as we enter the holiday season, he hoped everyone will take time to reflect on this university and the sometimes difficult events this year, and that we continue to move forward. UVA continues to provide a world-class education for students, great care to patients at UVA Health, and a great workplace environment for employees. He ended his remarks by wishing everyone a joyous holiday season.

The Rector called on student representative Lisa Kopelnik to give her remarks. Her remarks are reproduced verbatim, below.

Remarks by the Student Representative

Thank you, Mr. Rector.

It is so good to see everyone, and I can’t believe it’s almost the end of the year! I want to start by saying how grateful I am to have the opportunity to represent students on the Board.

While there was much uncertainty about what the year would look like in September, students have embarked on a new path this semester. From my conversations with students from across the University, both undergraduate and graduate, there is one resounding theme that has come to define our shared experience this fall. Students say that this semester has felt different: there is a sense of calm, a sense of normalcy, and a renewed sense of community. Students have described it as a “lighter air”, a semester “with room to breathe”. And though each student grapples with their own set of pressures and concerns, this semester, students have been given the room to be students – a testament to our growth as a community and student self-governance, the support of the Board and the administration, and the many people who make UVA special.

In my remarks, I hope to reflect on how we have steadied the ship amid what has been a turbulent period for higher education. To start, our students deeply appreciate UVA’s strong sense of community and togetherness. Fall is filled with special events, including Trick or Treating on the Lawn, different athletics events, acapella and comedy shows, and more. Student affairs, as well as our student-run class councils and University Programs Council, have provided weekly spaces for students to gather and enjoy one another. Following a spring in which many students expressed feeling exhaustion, these efforts have restored the energy and spirit of the student body.

Students have also expressed continued gratitude for the mentorship and personal relationships they are able to develop with faculty and administrators – from close relationships with professors and advisors in an academic setting, to support from University offices ranging from the Office of Student Engagement to the Office of African American Affairs. In partnership with Student Leaders, the University has worked to build relationships with students across many backgrounds, ensuring transparency, communication, and trust. Students deeply appreciate relationships with faculty and administrators’ that provide them with the support to excel during their time on grounds. Many feel that faculty and administrators’ desire to get to know students here is what sets us apart from other institutions.

One anecdote that represents the best of UVA students, administration, and faculty working together is a new program initiated by the School of Engineering’s Student Council. Under the leadership of the student council’s treasurer, Zachary Palazatto, the Council recently launched a new initiative with Hoos First in Student Affairs to allocate funding and provide support for students to travel, attend, and present at research conferences across the United States with the goal of personal professional development and expanding UVA’s reach. One student, Juan Gomez, recently received this funding and as a result, was able to travel to Los Angeles to attend a research conference, where with the guidance of his faculty, he was able to make meaningful connections that later translated into a job post-grad working for Kimley-Horn, a dream job with a premier planning and design engineering firm. There are thousands of examples of students looking out for each other, and the incredible outcomes arise when students, faculty, and the administration partner together.

Furthermore, this semester, Students have not shied away from difficult dialogue. There have been peaceful vigils with regards to the war in the Middle East, and students stood together in a student-organized vigil to commemorate the second anniversary of the November 13th Shooting.

There was also a national election, in which many student groups participated in voter registration and awareness efforts. The morning after the election, there was a post-election analysis event hosted by the Karsh Institute for Democracy. The President of the University Democrats and the President of the College Republicans spoke at the beginning of the event – Student Leaders setting the standard that we must lead with empathy and an open mind.

In my conversations with students, people have different levels of understanding of the Board: many are attentive to what we do, many are not, but almost all are curious. One question I often get is why the Board is called the Board of Visitors. While thousands of schools have a Board of Trustees, there are few that have a Board of Visitors, and the term is largely rooted in Virginia’s history. The Board of Visitors was established with people who were appointed to “visit” the university with the purpose of oversight, to ensure that it was succeeding in its mission of service to the commonwealth. So while a trustee’s obligations are to the institution alone, a Visitor’s obligations are to the people of Virginia and to the Commonwealth, in addition to the university and its students. In this way, I explain to students that the Board is and was designed to be much bigger than allegiance to a political party or appointment – every Visitor is tasked with something much greater, a commitment to the people of the University and the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Students have expressed serious concerns that polarization and politicization of higher education at the national level have and will continue to affect the decisions we make as a Board, a concern that has been shared across the aisle. I am grateful to the Board for its commitment to hearing the many perspectives of students. While it is our responsibility as students to continue to invest in student self-governance and UVA’s institutions, it is our responsibility as the Board to model the open-minded discourse and consideration of student voices that ensures students’ faith in our governance.

Staying true to my roots as a Politics Major, I have one final historical reference. Jefferson once wrote: “I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and constitutions, but laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed…as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times.”

In my conversations with students this semester, it has become clear that the greatness of UVA lies in its balance of tradition with progress and the pursuit of truth. Students express that beloved multi-generational traditions make this place what it is: singing the Good Old Song, participating in the storied legacy of student self-governance, going to events like the Lighting of the Lawn, eating dinners in Pavilions with faculty – this is the magic. But as Jefferson imagined, students are also deeply appreciative of the Board’s and the administration’s efforts to ensure our institution keeps up with the progress of our society – as represented in our new and hugely popular School of Data Science, and the institutes and centers devoted to researching and discussing modern and complex issues; and as shown through AccessUVA and similar programs that ensure UVA is accessible and instills a sense of belonging in the modern day. On behalf of students, I want to thank the Board for its many efforts to ensure that this university fulfills its mission to the people of the University and the Commonwealth of Virginia. Thank you, and happy holidays.

Remarks by the Faculty Senate Chair

Mr. James Lambert, Chair of the Faculty Senate, thanked the Rector for inviting him to make a report. He said he has been a professor at UVA since 1996, he is an alum of Virginia public schools all the way through high school, and he is a double Hoo. The message he brought to the Board was one of unity and collegiality of the Faculty Senate with the Board and the administration. Unity and action where there may be a plurality of thoughts and views, with all working together in governance-- shared governance--the term they use in the Faculty Senate.
