UVA quarterback Peter Lalilch admitted today in court that he drank alcohol while on probation, but didn’t smoke marijuana.

Now here’s a truly cool project. A bunch of UVA students (in architecture and engineering) spent last Friday assembling, at the Cobham home of architecture prof John Quale, structures they’d designed to shelter two sleeping people.

To celebrate the completion of a five-year renovation, Montpelier opened brand-new doors today, free of charge, to the public.
