Smiles illuminating as they reminisce. Hearts palpitating in the suspense. Cheers roaring as the envelopes rip. This was the scene at the Anne and Mike Armstrong Medical Education Building on Friday, March 20 at noon when Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine students learned where they will spend the next chapter of their medical training.

The Society of Scholars first began at Johns Hopkins in 1967 after being approved by the Board of Trustees. It was created on the recommendation of then University President Milton S. Eisenhower. The society inducts former postdoctoral fellows, postdoctoral degree recipients, house staff and junior or visiting faculty who have served at least a year at Johns Hopkins and for whom at least five years have elapsed since their last Johns Hopkins affiliation. Inductees have gained marked distinction elsewhere in their fields of physical, biological, medical, social or engineering sciences or in the humanities.
A Selection Committee, whose members are equally distributed among the academic divisions, elects a limited number of scholars from the candidates nominated by the academic divisions with postdoctoral programs. There are now more than 600 gifted scholars who make up the society. The inductees are honored earlier in the day at a luncheon hosted by Dr. Paul Rothman in the Dean's Board Room. The scholars are also presented with a certificate and a medallion on a black and gold ribbon at an annual induction ceremony in the evening, which will be held this year at the Peabody Institute.
The 2015 inductees are as follows:
Douglas A. Jabs, M.D., Keith Lillemoe, M.D., Santa Jeremy Ono, Ph.D., Carole Parent, Ph.D., Ramon Parsons, M.D., Ph.D., Godfrey Pearlson, M.A., M.D., M.B.B.S., Elise Stanley, M.D., Rolf-Detlef Treede, M.D., and Judith Wasserheit, M.D., M.P.H.
Congratulations!
