Johns Hopkins University's Class of 2029—the 150th undergraduate class in the university's history—has officially arrived, and we've got the class photo to prove it.

Members of the new first-year class, about 1,300 students in all, arranged themselves on Keyser Quad last week to form JHU 29, a Hopkins Orientation Week tradition. The class photo was unveiled to the class during Sunday's Convocation event.

Zoom in on the image below to see our newest Blue Jays, and check out drone flyover footage of the big photo shoot.
