Lights out
Tufts University Police Department (TUPD) officers at 2:59 a.m. on March 16 negotiated a heated dispute between a student and his roommate in Metcalf Hall after the roommate refused to turn the room's light off. The student called in TUPD to resolve the conflict. Following the intervention of two TUPD officers, the roommate agreed to turn the light off.
Such great heights
A TUPD officer at 5 a.m. on March 17 spotted a student on top of the central heating plant's chimney behind East Hall. The student had placed a stuffed animal on top of the chimney and attached to the chimney a large banner advertising a vegetarian event reading, "Beatin' the Meat in Eaton." The officer called him down, but the stuffed animal and banner were still there as of yesterday afternoon.
