WTOP News: “Weeks after some faculty members at Northern Virginia Community College took a ‘no confidence’ vote in regards to President Anne Kress’ leadership, they’re now speaking out about recent policy decisions that they said are harming students.
In a memo sent to members of the college’s full-time, nine-month teaching faculty caucus on Friday afternoon, the group said decisions such as reducing summer classes, ignoring safety concerns and removing athletics programs are negatively impacting students.”

Amazon Web Services has signed three new agreements to develop nuclear power projects for energizing its massive data centers, including one with Virginia’s Dominion Energy.
The Dominion agreement includes exploring the development of Small Modular Reactors, a kind of nuclear reactor with a smaller physical footprint that allows them to be built closer to the grid, and with faster build and delivery times. The project would be near Dominion’s existing nuclear power facilities at Virginia’s Lake Anna.
