[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hopkins does not have 17000 grad students.  It has 8,500, only 2000 of which are on the undergrad campus.  There are roughly 6300 undergraduates at the Homewood campus, so they clearly dominate the campus.  Some of you are allergic to facts.  People pursuing online executive certificate programs are not graduate students nor are they on a campus.[/quote]
You are wrong on so many levels. Presumably, you can read: 24000 grad students. The 17k is without the certificate programs. 
Here’s the cite: https://oira.jhu.edu/graduate-enrollment-and-degrees/

Incidentally, grad enrollment has increased 50% the last 10 years…[/quote]

There are still only 2000 graduate students at Homewood, Hopkins may count online executive program students as “graduate” students, but they still are not stepping foot on a campus.[/quote]

This is correct. The PP is amazingly dense. They should perhaps also google total graduate student numbers at other T20 institutions for comparison and may realize that there are a lot everywhere, and that not all of them are actually on the campuses that undergraduates inhabit. Moreover, the top research universities have a significant number of graduate students present on campus, because they are (duh) places of academic research. They are not liberal arts colleges.

As has already been explained, Johns Hopkins is different. Many grad students study on campus. It is a small campus that until recently did not even have a student center. Why is it different than, say, Harvard? Hmnnn. It’s Baltimore. It is not Cambridge/ Boston. There is nowhere else to go.[/quote]
