Housing/commute advice without a car?

Hi everyone!

Housing has been a bit of a pain, especially around North Grounds, so I’m trying to figure out which other areas are realistic for getting to the Law School day-to-day without a car.

How manageable is it to live around (primarily) JPA, or areas closer to downtown, to get to the Law School? Is the bus route reliable/is it walkable/bikable or would the distance make it annoying over time?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Vintage-inspired designs for a few classic Charlottesville/UVA spots

Hi everyone! I recently started a small side project called The Glory Dayz, where I make vintage-inspired apparel celebrating legendary college-town bars, restaurants, and local institutions.

http://www.redbubble.com/people/theglorydayz

My first UVA collection features a few places that generations of Hoos will probably recognize:

  • Tokyo Rose
  • Little John's
  • Michael's Bistro
  • The College Inn

The goal wasn't to recreate the original logos exactly, but to capture the nostalgia and feel of these places in a clean, vintage style.

I'd genuinely love some feedback from fellow UVA alumni and students: Which classic Charlottesville spots should I make next? What iconic restaurants, bars, or businesses do you miss the most?

Have VLR invitations/acceptances been offered/released yet?

I know they said they would call those accepted, but not sure if everyone else would get an email or just have to hear word of mouth that decisions had come out. Basically wanted to know if i'm living under a rock and "decisions" had been released

Update: question answered lol

iPad vs. Casebooks for 1L?

Hi all, I’ll be a 1L this fall and am looking for advice on whether it’s a bad idea to plan on buying only digital casebooks.

I don’t really care about physically tabbing or highlighting. I’d honestly prefer to annotate digitally because I can erase mistakes. I’m just worried there may be drawbacks I’m not thinking of

Did anyone go fully digital for 1L and regret it? Also, I know some professors don’t allow laptops in class, does that usually apply to iPads too?
