Abstract
"S.H." is a member of the Johns Hopkins University graduating class of 2019 and was a writing seminars major. In this interview, S.H. describes growing up in Pennsylvania in a close-knit family and the transition to life on their own in college. They discuss the importance of leaving the "Hopkins bubble" and getting involved in the greater Baltimore community while in school, specifically through their participation in a nonprofit organization called Writers in Baltimore Schools. S.H. reflects on their coursework, their experience as a first-generation student, and shares their plan to attend law school following graduation. This oral history is part of the First-generation Students oral histories series.
