The VCU Rams men’s basketball team ignited the campus (and the nation) with its incredible performance in the 2011 NCAA Tournament, winning the Southwest Regional title by defeating No. 1 ranked Kansas and making it to the Final Four in Houston. Students were solidly behind the team all the way and showed their support. 8 – Students watched games at many locations. Many filled the Siegel Center to watch the action en masse on a big screen. 9 – Students poured onto the streets around campus after the victories. The atmosphere in the city was truly exhilarating. April 10 –The annual Ukrop’s Monument Avenue 10k was held April 2, the same day as the Rams’ Final Four basketball game in Houston. In honor of the Rams’ success, the 10K was dubbed the Rampede. Thousands showed up for the race wearing black and gold to show their support. 11 – VCU Health System leaders and employees celebrate after being re-designated as a Magnet hospital. The Magnet Recognition Program® recognizes healthcare organizations for quality patient care, nursing excellence and innovations in professional nursing practice. Consumers rely on Magnet designation as the ultimate credential for high-quality nursing. Developed by the American Nurses Credentialing Center, Magnet is the leading source of successful nursing practices and strategies worldwide. 12 – A beautiful day is just another good excuse to hang out on the wall outside the Shafer Court Dining Center.

In addition, “Ramifications,” an interactive rams horns sculpture designed by alumnus Timothy Blum (M.F.A.’92/A), was added in 2009. A new tradition during New Student Orientation encourages students to walk by and touch the horns. Also, visitors can stand at a certain spot in the plaza and take a picture so it looks like the subject has horns. A series of such photographs are featured at the Richmond International Airport. 20 – Students on the MCV Campus enjoy studying in the recently renovated Hunton Student Center.

Franklin St., is a stellar example of the American Renaissance. Patterned after the Petit Trianon at Versailles, the mansion reflects the grandeur and prosperity of Richmond’s early-20th century, when it was one of the principal insurance and banking centers of the South. The upper floors are home to the VCU Development offices, but the building hosts many events during the year. 25 – The Ram Spirit Walk, sponsored by the VCU Alumni Association, is the welcoming event for VCU freshmen.
