In this must-watch address, Joel Gardner shines a spotlight on the growing concerns at the University of Virginia — from the unchecked expansion of DEI bureaucracies and a lack of institutional transparency, to the political climate impacting free expression and the disturbing targeting of dissenting students. As a UVA alumnus and committed advocate for the University’s founding principles, Gardner makes a compelling case for reform, accountability, and a return to Jeffersonian values of intellectual freedom.
