Is Baltimore a collegetown?
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrase “student council”.
Summary
- This News-Letter article reports on Hopkins students’ interaction with other Baltimore-area colleges.
- The paper reported that Baltimore has more than 20 colleges and universities, but surveyed students said interaction with nearby Loyola, Towson and MICA was not extensive.
- The article says Student Council tried to organise a joint club night, but only Goucher showed interest.
- The reporter writes that some fraternities held mixers with Loyola and Towson sororities and distributed party flyers at those schools.
- The article adds that senior Jesse Dennis spent time with MICA students after meeting one student, while other students mentioned dating or visiting people at the Naval Academy, Delaware and Maryland.
- According to the article, most students named Towson, Loyola, MICA and Notre Dame of Maryland as the main “other Baltimore colleges” and did not know about several smaller institutions.
