WHAT ARE CLASS NOTES?

Class Notes are a way to share what's going on in your life with your U.Va. classmates. Browse by graduation year to find news of your classmates and be sure to submit an update of your own.

U.Va. Magazine Class Notes are now entirely online, which allows our alums to update more frequently and include information that might not fit into our print edition. When you submit a class note, it will remain online for a period of one year and replace any previous class note you've submitted. We'll also include an edited version of the note in our print magazine, unless otherwise specified.
