As JHU celebrates its sesquicentennial year, join Hopkins Retrospective Program Manager Allison Seyler as she takes us back to the beginning. With a nod to the week’s Commemoration Day celebrations, Seyler describes the founder Johns Hopkins’ visionary gift, delves into the early history of the university, and shares archival photographs from the library’s collections.
