Beat Week brings a friendly competition between the University of Virginia and Virginia Tech, building on the long-standing rivalry of the Commonwealth Clash, which has been played for 55 years. While we have a heated rivalry on the field, that spirit of competition can bring us together and lift each of our beloved schools to greater heights. This spirited event unites both schools in a head-to-head giving challenge. Starting on November 17, UVA and Virginia Tech will compete to see which university can gain the greatest number of new donors over a two-week period. Fourth-years at UVA and seniors at Virginia Tech are encouraged to give their class gift during this time to celebrate school pride, embody the spirit of philanthropy, and support a growing Cavalier-Hokie tradition!
