Campus Comment | Tufts reacts to the end of the Boloco era

Boloco announced this month that it will likely shutter its location at 340 Boston Ave., drawing both ire and indifference from across the campus. This isn't the first time that the burrito restaurant has sounded the alarm, but now it seems like they may be serious. Here's what Tufts had to say.

"It doesn't really affect me because I never went there. I thought the burritos were small and overpriced, and I could just go to Chipotle."

—Michael Borys, junior

"I think it's another bluff, they've been saying this for years that they're going to close. [If it closed] I would be sad, but there are a lot of other places around that will fill the void."

—Lloyd Olson, senior

"It's sad, I've been there twice. I'm only a freshman. It was going to be my go-to non-Chipotle burrito place."

—Lily Sieradzki, freshman

"My sister went here, and she always told me that Boloco was the best. I was looking forward to coming here and going. It's really sad. Rest in pico de gallo, Boloco."

—Julia Stein, freshman

"I can make better Mexican than them anyway."

—Ian Grant, junior

"To be honest, I don't really like Boloco at all, so I'm kind of indifferent."

—Noah Jefferson, senior

"It's just so sad, I feel like there's nothing I can protest, but I wish I could because it's a tragedy. I went more last year when I lived uphill, but I feel very fondly about it."

—Michael Fishman, junior
