Online Discussion With President Kim: Mobilizing School Communities

I wanted to share this invitation to join in conversation with President Kim today at 5:30 EST. You can also learn more about last-minute financial aid advice in a chat today hosted by Admissions & Financial Aid at 6:15 EST.

Dear students across the nation,

Dr. Jim Yong Kim will be leading an online discussion on *Tuesday, January 26 at 5:30pm EST* on the national student response to the recent earthquake in Haiti.

To access the online discussion at 5:30pm EST, visit:

As President of Dartmouth College and a co-founder of Partners In Health, Dr. Kim will speak about the earthquake, PIH's response, why national student solidarity is critical to the response, and how students from across the country can help.

The call is open to all students (graduate, undergraduate, high school, middle school, etc) who are interested in learning more about the situation and how to mobilize their school communities to respond to the earthquake in Haiti.

Dr. Kim will be speaking via an online video stream and taking live questions through the video player's chat feature. We will also be accepting questions by email up until the talk begins. To send your question in early, email sdhr@dartmouth.edu with the subject line "JYK TALK: Your name, your school"
