Alumni Update Fall 2016

Susan Kulik

Dear Alumni,

Alumni Weekend was a huge success! Thank you to all who came to celebrate with classmates and friends. From the Bond Street Social, Hampton House tours, the WWI nurse performance, dinner and gala events, we shared many great memories and created new ones. See photos in this section and on our alumni website. A special congratulations to our 50th anniversary honorees, the Class  of 1966, and this year’s JHU alumni reward recipients:

  • Kaci Hickox—Outstanding Recent Graduate Award
  • Dr. Alexis Bakos—Woodrow Wilson Award for Distinguished Government Service
  • Dr. Jessica Gill—Distinguished Alumni Award.

We’re excited to begin planning next year’s event! If you would like to be involved, please contact the Alumni Office at jhnaa@jhu.edu.

I would like to thank the Johns Hopkins Nurses’ Alumni Association board for its dedication and service. Do not hesitate to reach out to us with your ideas!

Other Thoughts

I had the honor of attending the graduation ceremony for students in the final baccalaureate class, who walked the stage during their July 2016 Degree Completion Ceremony. Congratulations to a class making a special place in the school’s history.
