Hello, Emory!As the Emory community holds President Carter and his family in our thoughts, we look back on 40 years of partnership between Emory and The Carter Center. You can share messages of peace and comfort with President Carter through the center’s website. We’re also highlighting two projects that feature the work of students: “Buried Truths,” a podcast based on the Georgia Civil Rights Cold Cases Project course, and Frontline Immunity, a grassroots organization some School of Medicine students have joined to help others become health and vaccine ambassadors. If you’re looking for a challenge tonight, watch senior Maya Wright compete in the “Jeopardy! High School Reunion Tournament” at 7:30 p.m. EST. Would you earn a spot in the Tournament of Champions? Take care, Emory family. |
