GED Tutoring

The GED Tutoring part, I'd like to say that the activity will officially begin next semester. We'll be working with another nonprofit group in Baltimore called The Webb Group, Inc. Educational Learning Center who's currently looking to cooperate with local colleges to help locals prepare for GED. They have their instructors, so we're there to serve as "TA's". Contact Hwa Huang (hhuang35@jhu.edu) and David Moorshead (dmoorsh1@jhu.edu)

Kaplan

Kaplan is also thinking about doing a personal statement workshop on the upcoming February. If you'd like to work on personal statements, make note of that in your agenda (even though it's far into the future)
