Confronting racism and racist symbols in Virginia and beyond

Richmond Mayor Levar M. Stoney said Monday that communities with Confederate monuments need to have blunt conversations about racism.

“Every community has to find their voice in this conversation,” Stoney said. He said communities with Confederate monuments have options in facing their racist history, including providing context, removing them and enacting monuments to African American heroes.

As part of the continued evolution of the university’s centralized student services model, the Mason Student Services Center will manage all walk-in traffic for the Registrar’s Office.

Beginning Monday, March 9, any student needs that would have previously been taken care of by a member of the registrar’s staff on the second floor of Student Union Building (SUB) I will now be served at the Mason Student Services Center in SUB I’s lower-level lobby.
