And once again, our All-Time Greatest Hit:
By far the most viewed article of the last four years (nearly 8,800 views this year alone, averaging more than 30 and as many as 50 views a day) is this 2016 profile of then-sophomore Mark Loving, who graciously shared about the legacy of his great-grandparents, Richard and Mildred Loving.
The Virginia couple went to the U.S. Supreme Court to defend their right to marry and live together; their story is dramatized in the fall 2016 release 鈥淟oving.鈥�
Readership spikes around June 12, known as 鈥淟oving Day鈥� in the United States, to commemorate the 1967 ruling by the Supreme Court to disband all anti-miscegenation laws.
Mark graduated this spring. Here he is receiving his diploma and congratulations from President Susan Schultz Huxman.
