Welcome
Our job is to tell the story of The Johns Hopkins University and its students, faculty and staff. We tell that story to people who already have a relationship to the university — to those on campus and to off-campus alumni, parents and others — and to the general public. We tell it through traditional channels, such as our newspaper and magazines; through electronic media; and through the news media. We are stewards of the university's brand. We also provide counsel to the leaders of the university on issues relating to communications, public affairs and crisis management.
