We Are Georgetown: University President’s Symposium Recognizes Community through Competition
The University President’s Symposium at reunion weekend focused on one of the strongest unifying forces for die-hard Hoyas: Georgetown athletics. As men’s basketball coach John Thompson III explained, "There's a binding force athletics has that supercedes race, supercedes socio-economic status." He added, "It brings people together."
Georgetown College presents a balance between the breadth of knowledge that the 21st century will demand, and the depth that qualifies one’s expertise. Those who are considering applying to the College are on the path of joining a vibrant community characterized by passion that matches the talent of our exceptional student body.
