/ Published Feb 24, 2023It's still winter in Baltimore, but it really didn't feel like it on Thursday, when temperatures soared into the high 70s and students flocked to The Beach to soak up some sun. Other highlights this week included a talk with a retired general about the war in Ukraine as part of the Foreign Affairs Symposium, a Hopkins Symphony Orchestra rehearsal for an upcoming special performance, and a game night in honor of Black History Month. Check out those happenings and more with this gallery by University Photographer Will Kirk.
