Hi, Emory!We hope you enjoyed your fall break! Campus is already busy again, with Homecoming activities kicking off this weekend and Tibet Week beginning on Monday. Later this month, you can join discussions about honoring the Indigenous peoples who lived on the land where Emory is located. If you’re a photographer, submit your entry to the Global Health Photography Contest by Oct. 16. And if you want to watch some cool films from Emory Libraries’ collections, grab some popcorn and join Home Movie Day on Oct. 20. Plus, be sure to watch our video of highlights from the Atlanta Pride Parade. The Emory community was a strong supporter! Have a great weekend! |
