A significant contribution made during the 2025 WVU Day of Giving will directly support WVU esports’ expanding youth programs, including summer skills development camps held both in person and online. 

“At Breezeline, we believe in supporting the communities we serve and fostering opportunities for young people,” said Tom Delawder, Breezeline regional marketing manager for West Virginia, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. “We’re thrilled to contribute to WVU esports and help them expand their programs, providing valuable experiences for students and the wider gaming community.”

Mark your calendars for the WVU Department of Biology spring ephemeral wildflowerwalks!  We are very excited to share WVU Core Arboretum’s spectacular old-growth forest and its spring ephemeral wildflowers with the public again this year. 

These free, guided walks will happen on all Sundays in April at noon, 12:30 p.m., 3 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. 

The Center for Community Engagement's annual Excellence in Community Engagement Awards honor extraordinary accomplishments in engaged learning and community impact. 

On Wednesday (April 16), a portion of parking lot ST-6 at Blaney House will be closed. The remainder of the lot will remain open.

During this time, parking is available in other short-term lots on the Evansdale area of campus, like ST-1 at the Art Museum, ST-4 at the Rec Center or ST-9 at Evansdale Crossing.

International students on F-1 and J-1 student visas are also reminded to request a travel signature at least one month prior to any travel outside of the United States. 

Regulations require a student’s I-20/DS-2019 be endorsed by a designated school official/authorized representative organization to ensure the student is in good standing prior to reentering the United States. 

On Monday, April 7, at 9 a.m., the WVU Parking Management Office will begin selling student parking permits for the 2025-2026 academic year.

Students can purchase a permit online by visiting the Parking Portal. Select “Get Permits” and log in with your WVU credentials.

WVU is replacing its current identity management platform with Okta, a new product that will reduce costs and complexity, and gradually improve the single sign-on experience. 

Over the coming months, this change will streamline access to WVU services by granting permission based on your role with the University.
