Hi, Eagles,⛄ Spring semester is off to a snowy start, with two winter storms, plus winter-themed special events. We have photos from both, so check out the gallery from “First Snow” and “Frosty Wonderland,” and follow @EmoryUniversity on Instagram for more. 📚 Want to know what else is planned for the semester? Get the scoop on new programs, special events and more from each of Emory’s nine schools. 🏆 Then keep scrolling to meet Emory’s 11th Schwarzman Scholar, the most recent Sustainability Innovator Award recipients and more. ❄️ But most importantly, stay safe — because cold weather can be dangerous, with or without snow. We’ll be back with more updates next week. |
