WFNX 101.7 plays WMFO for a day

From 11 to 1 p.m. Tuesday, the steps of the Campus Center were filled with the sound of WFNX 101.7's "True Alternative" rock. Tufts marked the radio station's fifth stop in WFNX's "Campus Invasion," a program aimed to introduce Boston's incoming college crowd to the station and to a variety of WFNX's sponsors' products. Most notable among these were free samples of Tribe Hummus and Jordan's Furniture's new Roommate: a bed complete with a memory foam pad, as well as various sanitary measures to protect against questionable activities and new hygienically-challenged friends.

It's time to wake up: Iraq, jihad and America's choice

"I would like to tell you that the war is for you or for us to win. If we win it, it means your defeat and disgrace forever as the wind blows in this direction with God's help. If you win it, you should read the history. We are a nation that does not tolerate injustice and seek revenge forever. Days and nights will not go by until we take revenge as we did on 11 September, God willing, and until your minds are exhausted and your lives become miserable." (Osama bin-Laden, January 19, 2006)

Increasingly popular Birthright trip takes students from Medford to Middle East

If there's one thing the leaders at Tufts' Hillel have learned, it's that a free 10-day trip to one of the most religiously and politically important places in the world is not a tough sell. Hillel's annual Birthright Israel trip, which brings a group of students to Israel over winter break to tour the country's natural and historical sites, has long been popular among Tufts' roughly 25 percent Jewish population.

Stealing is stealing

The constant exposure to computer technology that has marked our generation has had an impact more meaningful than any social movement or political event of the times. Our parents went to Woodstock and to rallies on the mall in D.C. while we've gone on Facebook.com and invited our friends to the kegger on Saturday night.

MFA's Japanese exhibit shows dialogue between West and East

There is a game of tug of war going on in Japan today. The country that once stood in perfect isolation is now the center of a flowering of visual arts that takes as much from western pop and commodity art as it does from traditional Zen aesthetics and the innate Japanese sense of calligraphy and draftsmanship.

Lyons versus Jumbos, take five: Tufts and Wheaton meet tomorrow

The women's soccer team knows that it can never take the beginning of its schedule for granted.

The three Tufts teams finished a combined 31-12-7 in those three seasons, but went 1-3-2 in the two opening games.
