A Message from the Director of Athletics and Recreation

Dear Friends of Hopkins Athletics,

Academic excellence and athletic drive are extremely important to Johns Hopkins University alumni, parents and fans. Whether they are competing for our University in they gym, on the courts and fields, or in the pool, or acing a classroom exam, our student-athletes' successes are the foundation of Hopkins Athletics.

Over the years, the level of our success has been a direct reflection of the support we have received from you, the Blue Jay family. We encourage you to help us build on our winning tradition by becoming a member of Blue Jays Unlimited and supporting our student-athlete fund or one or more of our athletic teams.

The programs within our athletic department have all risen in national stature recently. This upturn is parallel to the increased participation in Blue Jays Unlimited. Your investment in our athletic programs will lay the groundwork for our student-athletes' continued success in the classroom and on the play field for many years to come.

For that, we are sincerely grateful.

Go Blue Jays!

Thomas P. Calder
Director of Athletics and Recreation
