Cavalier Admission Volunteers Handbook

"Enlighten the people generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like evil spirits at the dawn of day…"

The greatness of this University ultimately depends on the caliber of the faculty and student body. The mission of the Admission Office and the Cavalier Admission Volunteers (formerly the UVaClub Schools Committees) is to find and attract to the University the kinds of students who will benefit from the educational experience offered here, contribute to that experience and then go on to lead lives filled with achievement and satisfaction. We also must make every effort to see that these students have chosen their college wisely and that the University is indeed the best choice for them. Our responsibility, therefore, is to both the University and to the students.

In the process of undergraduate recruiting, informed and energetic Cavalier Admission Volunteers are of tremendous help. Alumni can convey to students the academic excellence, commitment to student self-governance, and physical beauty that make Mr. Jefferson's University so unique.

We thank you for agreeing to work with us as a Cavalier Admission Volunteer. Your efforts will
be invaluable to us and to the students you reach. This handbook will describe policies and
procedures of the Admission and Jefferson Scholar offices and will explain the ways in which
you can serve the University as a volunteer.
