Girl power, Hopkins
style
When the December/January issue of CosmoGIRL!
catches your eye in the supermarket check-out line, flip
past the article promising "685 ways to be totally
irresistible" and skip to page 135. There, in the edition
scheduled to hit newsstands tomorrow, you'll find a
full-page photo of three Johns Hopkins seniors who are
among 10 CosmoGIRL! of the Year Award winners.
CosmoGIRL!, Cosmopolitan
magazine's less provocative little sister, publishes the
annual feature to inspire its young adult readers to change
the world. Like the other girls of the year--among them
actress Katie Holmes and figure skater Michelle
Kwan--Hopkins students Lily Daniali, Solmaz Pirzadeh and
Tannaz Rasouli, all 21, were chosen as
role models for "daring to dream big."
