Whether you're preparing to enter the University of Virginia's hallowed halls for a degree or enjoying a weekend visit to this bastion of tradition, founded by Thomas Jefferson, there's plenty to learn. Cheer on Wahoos sports, walk The Grounds (never "campus"), see the Rotunda or stroll tiered The Lawn, surrounded by historic residences (which once housed Edgar Allan Poe). Down on The Corner you'll find a wonderful selection of casual restaurants with college prices and trendy shops. For complete listings on UVA sports click here.
