Dear Class of 2020,
Graduation is a time for celebration. On this joyful occasion, we applaud your remarkable
achievement of earning a Johns Hopkins Carey Business School degree. You’ve completed
your studies. You’ve been put to the test and proven more than worthy. We also recognize and
thank those loved ones, teachers, and friends, who guided you, supported you, and inspired
you throughout your lives and careers.
For the Class of 2020, your graduation comes at an extraordinary time as the world grapples
with an unprecedented pandemic. To say that your graduation ceremony was not what you
would have imagined would be an understatement. All of us have been forced to adapt and to
make sacrifices in ways we would not have conceived of before this pandemic crisis. Yet, you
have risen to the challenge in superb fashion.
Consider this time as your “baptism by fire.” The experience you’ve gained, the adaptability
you’ve shown, and the commitment you’ve demonstrated, have given you an important head
start in engaging with the future. With courage and commitment, you’ve truly lived the Carey
Business School motto of “Build for what’s next” by continuing to excel in the challenging
environment thrust upon us.
So, what’s next? You now have a wealth of business knowledge, new skills, and memorable
experiences. What’s next is up to you, as you enter a new phase of your lives and careers. This
next phase may seem daunting, but it is nonetheless exciting in its possibilities. You are the very
leaders that an anxious but hopeful world needs and awaits. Apply the gifts that you have, the
passion and purpose that you already possess, to the good that you can do.
In time, our memory of this pandemic may fade, but life as we have known it will, in many
respects, be forever transformed. There will be exciting new opportunities to make the world
a safer, healthier, and more just and equitable place for all of its citizens. I have no doubt that
many of you will be at the forefront of that change, helping to build a tomorrow full of potential
and promise.
Please know that this is not the end of your relationship with Carey. We view it as just the
beginning. We can’t wait to hear of your plans and read of your achievements. Stay in touch,
and visit us when you can.
I wish you nothing but happiness and the best of luck in your continuing journeys.
Sincerely,
Alexander J. Triantis Dean Johns Hopkins Carey Business School

Mission of the Carey Business SchoolWe expand Johns Hopkins University’s pursuit of research, discovery and education through dynamic
learning opportunities, innovative faculty, and interdisciplinary collaborations to help shape leaders who
seize opportunities to create lasting commercial and societal value.
Johns Hopkins LegacyJohns Hopkins Carey Business School is not the average business school. Just as Johns Hopkins was not the
average business man.
Johns Hopkins’ mother saw her child’s innate business ability and pushed him to “go where the money is.”
After arriving in Baltimore, Johns quickly advanced from store clerk to finance capitalist and ultimately
bank president.
Before Johns Hopkins was a hospital or a university, Johns was a businessman building for what’s next. Even
after he made his fortune, he remained committed to creating lasting value. It was that quest to build for
what’s next that drove Johns to create America’s first research university and set a new course for education.
Business at Johns Hopkins — An Audacious Beginning
Some of the earliest business classes at Johns Hopkins challenged conventional wisdom. From the
beginning, Henry L. Gantt—class of 1880 and inventor of the Gantt Chart, became a leading figure in the
scientific management movement, presenting cutting-edge and often controversial ideas in his lectures at
Johns Hopkins.
In 1916, Johns Hopkins added business and engineering courses for part-time students. Energetic individuals
such as Gantt fostered the growth of the new field of business administration and the concept of “working
smarter” to enhance efficiency and profits. Following World War II, the Johns Hopkins program produced
more CPAs than any other school in Maryland.
Over time, management science program became the first graduate level business degree at Johns Hopkins
with a focus on applying new findings in quantitative analysis and general systems theory. In 1991, the school
developed new programs to address a business landscape incorporating transformed by technological
innovation, emerging economies, and escalating politics, including specialized Master of Science programs
and Master of Business Administration degree.
Establishing Johns Hopkins Carey Business School
On December 4, 2006, Johns Hopkins trustees, in response to a gift from businessman William Polk
Carey, voted to establish a new business school dedicated to producing innovative leaders with broad,
interdisciplinary knowledge. The school was named after Carey’s great-great-great grandfather, James Carey
of Loudon, a successful Baltimore merchant during the 18th and 19th centuries. On January 1, 2007, the new
Carey Business School opened its doors for the first time.
Carey’s $50 million donation, paired with $50 million to be raised by the university, was responsible for
launching the Carey Business School. This was the largest gift ever in support of business education at
Johns Hopkins.
