• We have some incredible news to share with you – As part of our annual Horizons by Hopkins Career Conference, the one and only Tan France will be gracing our campus for an intimate conversation on November 16 at Shriver Hall. You won't want to miss this!  But here's the exciting part - this event isn't just a one-way conversation with Tan. We're creating an interactive experience where six members of our community - undergraduates, doctoral candidates, and post-docs - will have the chance to ask Tan their burning questions. They'll delve into career challenges, triumphs, and his role as an LGBTQ icon.  We want every single one of you to be a part of this enlightening conversation. However, seats are limited, so make sure you grab your tickets early!
