Top 10 Ways to Experience Hopkins from Afar
So you want to know what Hopkins is like but you live in Saskatchewan and can't come to visit. Here are 10 helpful things to do to experience Hopkins from afar.

1. Put on your Hopkins hoodie and cheer for the Hopkins lacrosse team. Games are broadcast on ESPNU.
2. Eat some really good crabs.
3. Travel into your basement to read a book. Our library is underground so you'd better get used to it.
4. Start spouting the Hopkins-specific acronyms. AMR, IFP, BME, IR. Your friends will think you're speaking in code.
5. Experience the Hopkins message boards. Start chatting with your classmates before you meet them in person.
6. Scowl when anyone pronounces it "John Hopkins."
7. Run up and down marble steps in the rain. Get the practice in early; slipping on the stairs should be done alone, not in public.
8. Drink a lot of coffee. When writing papers it's a useful skill.
9. Start doing research. Two-thirds of students here do it, so why not get a head start?
10. Look at maps of Hopkins. When you get here all your new friends will be surprised at how you know where Bloomberg, Olin, and Whitehead halls are.
