Jessica K.
Class of 2011
Read my blog: Caught In-Between—Jessica K.
Hometown: Tenafly, NJ
Major/Minor: Public health studies (social sciences concentration) and environmental studies (minor)
Current residence: Charles Commons
Campus involvement: JHSPH Research Assistant, Public Health Student Forum, Circle K, Hopkins Hosting Society
Why I chose Johns Hopkins: I chose Hopkins because of the vibe I got when I visited. I could tell that Hopkins not only had a beautiful mid-sized campus, but one filled with a unique student body and tons of opportunities.
Favorite class: Environment and Society: Towards Sustainability—it's a small class with students discussing many viewpoints.
What myth about Johns Hopkins frustrates you the most? I hate the myth that there's only one type of student here. The student body is diverse in many ways; there is definitely no typical Hopkins student.
Favorite spot on the Homewood campus: The Pura Vida coffeehouse in Levering Hall. This is a perfect spot between my classes. I usually go here and eat a snack in one of the comfy chairs while reading the newspaper.
Where I see myself in 10 years: I would like to be doing international health research for the World Health Organization while working on becoming a professor.
Three unusual things about myself:
- I faint from blood, hospitals, and needles.
- I don't know what my natural hair color is.
- I don't like cooked vegetables, but I am a vegetarian.
