Alumni Association Awards
Every year, the Johns Hopkins Alumni Association presents six categories of awards to honor outstanding alumni, faculty, and friends of Johns Hopkins. This year, our community recognized our 2022 recipients during our in person celebration on October 7 at the B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore.
