The recent announcement of the Tufts Tuition Pact, a program that will cover tuition for U.S. students from families who earn less than $150,000 per year, has received many responses from the university’s community. While some concerns exist over the program’s timeframe and level of comprehensiveness, the Tufts Tuition Pact has received overall positive feedback due to its ability to make attending Tufts more affordable for middle-income families.
Amid the near-total Israeli blockade, those in Gaza are facing a new threat to their lives — paralytic diseases. According to Nasser Hospital’s head of pediatrics, Dr. Ahmed Al-Farra, “Before the war, we used to see one case of Guillain-Barré syndrome yearly, but in the last three months, we have already diagnosed nearly 100 cases. We are seeing an outbreak of acute flaccid paralysis as a result … Patients are fatigued, unable to stand or sit. Then, as the paralysis increases, it affects patients’ respiratory muscles and can lead to respiratory failure. This can, in some cases, result in cardiac arrest.”
September after dark makes a football game feel bigger. The lights sharpen everything: edges of pads, breath in the air, the collective wince of a crowd when a return man gets the corner and the volume turns from murmur to, ‘Oh my god, go.’ Ellis Oval had all of that Saturday, and then some. Tufts defeated Wesleyan 22–20, a win stapled together with all the duct tape a football team keeps in the equipment trunk: defense, field position, special teams, grit, more special teams and, when it absolutely had to happen, one burst through daylight to slam the door.
In our dining halls, plates are merely vessels of utility. Students stack them high with Dewick-MacPhie Dining Center fries or Fresh at Carmichael Dining Center pancakes, slam them down on plastic trays beside their friends, and later let them rattle down a conveyor belt to be stripped of ketchup stains and congealed maple syrup residue by custodial staff. For those living off campus, Amazon boxes and Target bags deliver inexpensive, replaceable dishware, valued for durability. Beauty here is an afterthought, or not a thought at all — a convenience that disappears into the dishwasher before a 9 a.m. class.
Hello! Welcome back to another semester of “Through Indigenous Eyes.”
It’s a Friday on the Tufts Reservoir Quad, and among the bustle of students finishing up their classes before the weekend, you hear the squeals of excited kids. You look to the right, and there’s a capture the flag game going on between local Somerville children and Tufts student volunteers.
When senior Vanessa John toured Tufts in the spring of her last year of high school, she was met with the very beginnings of the university’s newest affinity space: the Indigenous Center. The center, which had been approved in fall 2021 and opened during spring 2022, promised to be a welcoming, open space for both Indigenous students and anyone else who wanted to learn about Indigeneity. However, back then, the center still had a long way to go.
Residents protested Tuesday night outside the Hyatt Place in Medford in response to reports of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents staying at the hotel. The demonstrations were a follow up to a similar protest on Saturday on the Hyatt’s premises.
The first tip-off of the 2025–26 college basketball season comes on Nov. 3. With just under six weeks left, the excitement leading up to opening day is starting to build up. Still, we don’t have official preseason rankings, schedules are being finalized and, apparently, the coaching carousel is still taking its course. While we wait for the actual basketball to start, these are the offseason storylines I found to be interesting and also important for this year of college hoops.
Welcome to the third installment of “Dissertation Diaries.” This week, we will focus on Bradley Pedro, a fifth-year biology doctoral candidate in the Romero Lab at Tufts!
The Sept. 10 assassination of Charlie Kirk, a 31-year-old right-wing activist and co-founder of Turning Point USA, has led to shock across Tufts’ campus, along with reconsiderations of political discourse within the university.
For decades, American television followed a rigid formula: around 22-episode seasons running from September to May. Think “Grey’s Anatomy” (2005–) or “Gilmore Girls” (2000–2007). That structure was built to fill primetime every week, creating a seasonal rhythm for viewers — fall premieres, winter cliffhangers and spring finales.
Tufts recently announced the launch of the Tufts Center for Expanding Viewpoints in Higher Education, which is based in the Office of the President. Dr. Eitan Hersh, a professor in the Department of Political Science, helped create the center and serves as its director.
Michael Jordan. Mario Lemieux. Tom Brady. All greats of their respective sports. All retired, reversed their decision and then came back to dominate.
