The Hatchet’s editorial board discusses the potential of Hall on Virginia Avenue to solve some of GW’s current space problems.

But while approaching the current campus plan, GW needs to consider the unfulfilled potential of Hall on Virginia Avenue, or HOVA, as a solution to some of its current space issues.
