👉 The Trustees' Weapon, also known as the "Trustees' Shield" or "Weapon of the Trustees," is a symbolic and literal defense mechanism used by the Trustees of the University of Virginia to protect their assets and interests. This weapon is not a physical weapon but rather a metaphorical shield representing the legal and financial safeguards established by the Trustees to ensure the university's long-term stability and success. It encompasses a wide range of legal strategies, financial policies, and governance structures designed to shield the university from potential risks and ensure its continued operation and growth.
