Abstract
Shedrick Elliot III is an Assistant Track and Field Coach at Johns Hopkins. In this interview, Elliot shares about his life prior to working at the university, particularly about growing up in the Baltimore area and his religious background. He also describes his initial reaction to the Homewood campus and the perception of a "Hopkins bubble" separating campus from surrounding neighborhoods. Elliot shares what he enjoys about coaching students and how he strives to support student athletes on the track, but especially in their academic and personal lives.
