About
The President's Commendation for Achievement in the Arts is a service award established in 1989 by former Johns Hopkins President Steven Muller to honor a graduating senior who has contributed extensively to the arts by service to the Homewood and/or Baltimore communities. The winner of the President's Commendation receives a certificate, and their name appears in the Commencement program.
Eligibility
Graduating undergraduate seniors in the Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences, the G.W.C. Whiting School of Engineering, or the Peabody Institute who are in good standing and on track to receive a degree at Commencement, may apply for the commendation.
All art forms are eligible for consideration. Only individual students may apply. Group applications are not accepted.
The winner of the President's Commendation for Achievement in the Arts will have made significant and lasting contributions to the arts by service to the Homewood and/or Baltimore communities.
