Seeking Your Ideas
In 2013, we launched a bold strategic vision for Johns Hopkins, the Ten by Twenty, which would steer our institution through the remainder of the decade. The ambitious goals we set together were shaped by conversations with more than 1,000 of you, and your ideas and efforts have driven many of our extraordinary successes in the years since.
Now it’s time to take stock of how far we have come and to dream together, once again, about the institution’s future.

We are convening a series of focused conversations with faculty, students, and staff across the university to hear your thoughts on our achievements and the challenges we have not yet addressed under the Ten by Twenty’s four priorities: One University, Individual Excellence, Commitment to our Communities, and Institution Building.
In partnership with deans, administrators, and student leaders, we are holding over 50 conversations to hear your perspectives on these and other important issues. Through these dialogues, we will seek to develop a clear-eyed understanding of where we stand against the goals we articulated seven years ago.

Ongoing Questions
Have we accomplished our aim of knitting together One University, and what are the obstacles that still stand in the way of meaningful interdisciplinary collaboration?
Does our undergraduate experience truly stand among the nation’s best, and have we sufficiently shored up the rigor and excellence of our selective doctoral programs?
How might our new home at 555 Pennsylvania Avenue, enable us to bring research to bear on shaping national debates, and should we be playing a different role on the global stage?
How can we continue to requite our mission to be both in and truly of Baltimore, and what must we do to remain a true partner to our neighbors and communities?
In the wake of a record-setting capital campaign, have we established a base of resources that will allow us to advance our boldest aspiration for education, service, and discovery?
Which Ten by Twenty priorities should continue to guide our work? And are there new priorities that have risen to the fore in recent years and must be reflected in our next strategic vision?
Developing a clear-eyed understanding of where we stand against the goals set seven years ago.
Since 2013, we have regularly assessed and reported on our progress toward the Ten by Twenty goals in the spirit of full transparency and accountability. Your insights will add new context and nuance to our understanding of how far we’ve come and what remains to be done. Your divisional, departmental, and individual assessments and ideas will also help us to think boldly about the goals to set for our university in the years ahead.
You’re invited to take part in the conversation through the comment form on this page, or by emailing 10by20@jhu.edu with your thoughts or request to connect. The original Ten by Twenty plan and progress reports to date are available online and we will regularly update this page to share information about opportunities for input.
Thank you for all you have done to advance our work and lift Johns Hopkins to new heights over the past seven years. I look forward to working with you to set our course for the future.
