00:00:01.170 --> 00:00:03.030
It's so important
to see our community

00:00:03.030 --> 00:00:06.090
coming together around this
common concept that is love.

00:00:06.090 --> 00:00:08.039
Today is Valentine's Day.

00:00:08.039 --> 00:00:11.620
And we are celebrating it as
a part of the LGBTQ Center.

00:00:11.620 --> 00:00:13.620
This is something we've
been doing for 10 years,

00:00:13.620 --> 00:00:15.640
standing on the rotunda steps,
singing the good old song.

00:00:15.820 --> 00:00:19.400
The LGBTQ Center is a space
for everyone, queer and allied.

00:00:19.400 --> 00:00:21.120
We host a bunch of different programs

00:00:21.200 --> 00:00:22.860
It's a place where people can just be.

00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:26.100
For 10 years, we've had
shirts that say, love is love.

00:00:26.220 --> 00:00:28.180
And this year, we
wanted to give people

00:00:28.200 --> 00:00:30.800
the opportunity to kind of fill
in the blank for themselves.

00:00:30.880 --> 00:00:33.140
And so we left a
literal blank line.

00:00:33.220 --> 00:00:34.880
By leaving a blank at
the end of the phrase,

00:00:35.060 --> 00:00:37.360
we hope to start a dialogue
about how to make the world

00:00:37.440 --> 00:00:39.360
a place where all
people know that they're

00:00:39.360 --> 00:00:40.960
loved and can love freely.

00:00:41.020 --> 00:00:43.540
It's just been a wonderful
day to see people

00:00:43.540 --> 00:00:47.420
coming together and sharing in
this beautiful mystical thing

00:00:47.420 --> 00:00:48.600
that is love.

00:00:48.660 --> 00:00:54.200
(SINGING) Let's all join
hands and give a yell for dear

00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:56.819
old UVA.

00:00:56.820 --> 00:00:59.680
[CHANTING] Wah hoo wah, Wah
hoo wah, UVV, Virginia!

00:00:59.680 --> 00:01:07.200
Hoo rah ray, hoo rah
ray, ray, ray, UVA!

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:10.260
[APPLAUSE]
