Consistently ranked among the top law schools in the nation, Virginia has educated generations of lawyers, instilling in them a commitment to leadership, integrity and community service. Virginia is justly famous for its collegial environment that bonds students and faculty, and student satisfaction is consistently cited as among the highest in American law schools. At Virginia, law students share their experiences in a cooperative spirit, both in and out of the classroom, and build a network that lasts well beyond their three years here.

THE 2016 BCG ATTORNEY SEARCH GUIDE TO AMERICA’S TOP 50 LAW SCHOOLS 1 Admission Statistics7 Approximate number of applications 6048 Number accepted 1071 Acceptance rate 17.7% The above admission details are based on 2013 data. Class Ranking and Grades8-10 The Law School does not use or disclose class rank except for limited purposes, such as determination of specific academic awards. Grades in each course are awarded to an enforced mean. Instructors ensure that grades have an adequate distribution around this mean. Under the current grading system, there are 10 possible grades that can be used by the faculty in evaluating performance in courses and seminars: A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, D and F. In a few select courses, the grades S (Satisfactory) and U (Unsatisfactory), or CR (Credit) and NC (No Credit) are awarded. No credit is awarded for a course in which a student receives an F, NC, U, W (Withdrawn) or WF (Withdrawn Failing) grade. The grades U and NC are treated as F grades for all purposes. The numerical grade point values for letter grades are as follows: Letter Grade Value A+ 4.3 A 4.0 A- 3.7 B+ 3.3 B 3.0 B- 2.7 C+ 2.3 C 2.0 D 1.0 F 0.0 Candidates for the J.D. degree must accumulate 86 credits while satisfying two conditions: a student must maintain a minimum grade point average of C+ (2.3) and accumulate fewer than three exclusion points at the conclusion of each academic year. A grade of D carries one exclusion point and a grade of F carries two exclusion points. It is the intent of the faculty that, for the purpose of allocating grades in a course or seminar and to assist in achieving grade uniformity, the mean grade for each course and seminar will be a 3.3. However, there is no particular grading curve to which a faculty member must adhere. Thus, the mean can be achieved either by averaging relatively high and low grades or by having most grades grouped more closely around the B+ (3.3) mean.

    COPYRIGHT © 2018 VIRGINIA LAW REVIEW ASSOCIATION VIRGINIA LAW REVIEW ONLINE VOLUME 104 JANUARY 2018 1–7 FOREWORD Farah Peterson∗ On August 11 and 12, 2017, neo-Nazis and Klansmen came to Charlottesville to hold a rally meant to assert themselves as a force in American society. That event, and the President’s reaction to it, raised the disturbing possibility that for the first time in more than fifty years, white supremacy could be a matter of debate at the highest levels of American politics. This Foreword asks what legal scholarship has to contribute in times like these. It also introduces a partial answer: a group of student and faculty pieces analyzing some of the many difficult legal questions the rally raised. * * * T’S hard to know where to begin the story that culminated in the Imurder of Heather Heyer and the injury to our body politic. It could start in the early twentieth century, when black service in WWI and the rhetoric of that war gave black Americans new hope and inspired them to new militancy in demanding eQual citizenship.1 These hopes, short-lived, were “smashed” by a “reaction of violence that was probably unprecedented.”2 The last six months of 1919 saw twenty-five race riots in American cities, north and south, in which “mobs took over cities for days at a time, flogging, burning, shooting, and torturing at will.”3 It was also in 1919, that Paul Goodloe McIntire, a one-time UVA attendee and a great university benefactor, dedicated the first of the four bronze statues he had * Associate Professor of Law, University of Virginia School of Law.
