Tufts Timeline

It was 20 years ago today that Tufts campus got its first glimpse of a small publication called The Tufts Daily. A group of ten studnets came down to the basement of Curtis Hall, sat down at some typewriters, and put their hearts into writing, editing, and laying out a few articles. Little did they -- or anyone else -- realize tht those first four pages would spawn two decades of student reporting. They had no idea that, over the next 20 years, almost 600 students would become editors, or that Jumbos would wake up every morning expecting their news and crossword puzzle. At that inauspicious beginning, they had no idea what The Tufts Daily would become.
