What is Common Question (CQ)? Each year, CQ poses one big question to the Hopkins community, curates a set of relevant sources, and creates spaces for conversation. But instead of exploring our question through a single source, CQ expands our aperture to investigate sources from natural science, social science, and humanistic and creative perspectives. CQ host events around the Hopkins community to encourage students and faculty to seek out challenging conversations and questions that inspire them.
