Latest tuition increase at a best-value university: UVA ups its in-state tuition and fees 3.8 percent to $12,458 a year, making a year there around $26,000. Out-of state students get hit with a 4.8 percent bump up to $39,844, and once room and board are added in, they're looking at about $53,800 a year, according to a release. 

Most disruptive: Living Wage protestors are evicted from the more tightly clamped down Board of Visitors meeting– twice– April 18, Sandy Hausman reports for WVTF.

Latest traffic fatality: Thomas C. Jakubowski, 52, of Charlottesville, dies in a three-car wreck April 19 on U.S. 250 in Fluvanna when his westbound 1991 Chevrolet Astro Van crosses the center line and sideswipes an eastbound 2013 Ford pickup, then hits a 2008 GMC 4500 truck head-on, according to Virginia State Police.

Worst getaway: Christopher Lee Snow, 25, of Crozet, tries to dodge Albemarle sheriff's deputies April 17 on U.S.250/29 bypass for a couple of miles and hits two cars. He's charged with two counts felony hit-and-run and one felony count for eluding police, according to WINA.

Worst place to commit suicide: A man kills himself while driving on the U.S. 29/250 bypass and crashes Sunday morning, April 21, shutting down the northbound lanes for about three hours. Albemarle police spokesperson Carter Johnson refuses to release the deceased's age, identity, or any further details. No one else was injured in the public demise.

Worst lawyer: The Virginia State Bar orders Robert P. Dwoskin, 71, to close his practice after he allegedly violated ethics rules involving diligence, client communication, fees and disobedience of a court order in the case of a woman claiming police excessive force, the Daily Progress reports.
