University of Virginia

The University of Virginia, founded by Thomas Jefferson himself in Charlottesville, Virginia, has been declared a World Heritage Site and is a famous example of neoclassical architecture, in addition to being consistently regarded as one of the best universities in the United States of America.

Despite the University's prestige and status as one of the most respected universities in the West, this cannot save it from the unfortunate fame of being one of Chris's prime attraction locations for his Love Quest.

As early as 2005, Chris spent time in the Alderman Library and the café playing his DS in hopes of attracting a boyfriend-free girl to be his sweetheart. According to local Something Awful goon vikivil, Chris would also leave some business cards behind in the library with the address to his Sonichu site printed on them. It can be reasonably assumed that these cards might have been one of the early seeds to his later Internet infamy.

Chris was spotted by a student at UVA there on 26 October 2007. He would go on to discuss Chris on Something Awful, marking the first step in Chris's higher profile on the internet and the beginning of constant trolling.

Chris alluded to "the campus" in his 22 May 2009 video, suggesting that he may still have been considering UVA as an attraction location at this time.

Despite the fact that Chris has never set foot on the campus for any other reason than his Love Quest, Chris has taken part in several events held at the university, even making a television appearance while participating in one of them.

Sonichu on UVA
In Sonichu's News Dash #5, "Sonichu" (read: Chris) did a review of the UVA Library:

Fake number
On 12 March 2009, Chris talked to seven girls at Alderman Library. One of them gave him a number. "But unfortunately it was a fake... but unfortunately it was a bad number" because it was out of service. Chris was emotionally prepared for that though, since he had watched an episode of Seinfeld where Elaine gives fake numbers to guys and a funny situation resulted with her wanting a free sub.

2017 events
Chris attended the Love is Love event on 10 February. It consisted of people wearing shirts supplied by the UVA's LGBTQ center and gathering to sing Good Old Song, UVA's school anthem.

According to Facebook posts, he made plans to attend a date auction charity event at the campus on 9 February.

In June 2017, he attended the UVA Remembers Pulse event, where he was quoted by local news media.
