Collegiates

The Collegiates program offers monthly programs to stellar students from area schools selected for their commitment to education, attitude, and attendance. These students then travel to Johns Hopkins and Baltimore City locations to experience different aspects of college-life and career opportunities. This program allows students to visualize what college and careers will be like upon graduation from high school.

Ongoing ProgramsIn addition to annual programming, Johns Hopkins East Baltimore Community Affairs supports ongoing programs. Two examples of ongoing programs are Days of Taste and Collegiates.

days of taste

Days of Taste is a discovery-based program that brings together chefs, farmers and area students to understand the science of how their food gets from farm to table. Students learn about agriculture, and the chemistry of balancing tastes and textures, and basic nutrition principles for healthy eating.
