A truly memorable Senior Class Gift must be more than just material items that students will soon take for granted or ignore. Senior Class Gifts in the past years have been practical and fun. For example, one class purchased tables and chairs for the Levering courtyard, and another class gave videogames for E-Level. This year's Senior Class Gift Committee (of which I am a member) sought a more meaningful gift for the Class of 2005.
It goes without saying that college students bombarded with academic and social pressures will feel stressed-out occasionally. When stress becomes unmanageable, however, students may look to the following campus resources for help and perspective.
When the Senior Class Council was planning and scheduling the events for Senior Week early this semester, the group had a few criteria in mind.
Charles Village residents needn't worry that the neon signs boasting pizza at the front Saint Paul Street shop, Sam's Bagels, means an end to their regular breakfast or lunch order.
While a formal interview may not be required for every internship you covet, you should nonetheless be prepared for this potentially anxiety-causing part of the process. Like any other interview, a conversation with a potential internship provider is an opportunity for you to sell yourself and to bring to life the words and phrases that make up your resume. Internships themselves give you experience in a field you're interested in and help you build a resume. Internship interviews have similar potential as learning experiences because you'll, of course, only get better the more you tackle.
Remember when you first visited Hopkins and your tour guide told you this was a "lacrosse school?" Remember when she or he told you homecoming was held in the spring to coincide with lacrosse season instead of in the fall during football season? Remember how this seemed kind of strange, especially if you didn't grow up in Maryland (which is, it is probably safe to say, the lacrosse capital of the world)?
When some of their classmates will be lounging on sunny beaches, basking in the luxury of a week free of classes, nine Hopkins students will be putting down their notebooks and problem sets in exchange for construction paraphernalia. They'll be spending spring break in El Paso, Texas at one of the city's Habitat for Humanity sites.
Three Intersessions ago, when senior Irun Bhan was deciding how to spend his January break, he wasn't exactly looking for a massage class. What he was trying to find, however, was an excuse to stay in Baltimore and something fun to do with his friends. The massage class offered by the department of Student Development and Programming for the January term simply fit the bill.
When sophomore Ellen Harry answers her mobile phone, a device she uses for 30 minutes to an hour each day, she's usually not thinking about health, safety or rumored links between cancer and cell phones. "There are so many other things that have such a greater risk factor," she said, citing frequenting bars where patrons are smoking as an example.
If Condoleeza Rice and Dick Cheney walked into PJs for Taco Tuesday, many Hopkins students would recognize the National Security Advisor and Vice President. Who knows, a student might even offer to spot them a pitcher of Yuengling. Despite a looming election, however, if any of the other notable individuals pictured above graced us with his or her presence in Charles Village, the average Hopkins student wouldn't even notice.
Before you can guzzle your weight in liquid in the Beer Garden and fly upside down with the flesh you've recently gnawed off sticks rattling around in your stomach, someone has to organize Spring Fair.
Maybe I was absent that day in kindergarten and missed the part of the Ugly Duckling where the bird has a tummy tuck and a beak job before emerging victorious as a stunning swan.
You're a college student. You need a major. That's easy. No options there. But, in order to be a competitive candidate in the graduate school and employment markets, do you also need something more -- maybe a minor?
The words "course registration" may conjure several images depending on your major, your year and your ability to cope in situations with the potential to be less enjoyable then walking to Olin Hall for a 9 a.m. class or finding out your new roommate is a country music fan.
No, my dear froshies, you aren't in Kansas anymore. (And if that really is where you hail from, I certainly do apologize.) No, you're now in "Charm City," "Mobtown," and the "City that Reads." It's a port city and the largest the state of Maryland has to offer. It's a peculiar place called Baltimore...unless you were born here, in which case it's "Bawl-mer."
A short shuttle ride from the Homewood Campus, the Peabody Institute, a division of Johns Hopkins and one of the world's premier music conservatories, lies nestled in the historic Mt. Vernon section of Baltimore.
You're probably a know-it-all. Hopkins is full of 'em.
Hopkins' student yearbook has recorded some of the many changes that the University has experienced in its long history-physical changes to the Homewood campus, the coming and going of University Presidents, and the evolving makeup of the study body.
On Thursday nights, about sixty Hopkins students pile into a mid-sized lecture hall in Hodson ready for a three-hour lecture in a course called Criminal Justice and Corrections. Their real lesson however, does not take place in the classroom, but rather in local courtrooms, police cars, detention centers, and state hospitals.
