On Wednesday, December 11, at 5–7 p.m. at Goddard Chapel, join the Interfaith Student Council for a decompression space. Take a break from studying with crafts, snacks, ice cream, LEGOs, and friends. Come and go as you please.

You are invited to the annual Late-Night Breakfast celebrating the end of the fall semester and start of final exams. Come to Dewick Dining Center on Wednesday, December 11, at 10 p.m.–12 midnight for a delicious late-night meal sponsored by Tufts Dining, Office for Campus Life (OCL), and Student Life. This event is open to undergraduates only with valid Tufts ID.

Join us on Friday, December 13, at 11 a.m.–2 p.m. in the Campus Center Upper Lobby for hot cocoa and treats to celebrate your amazing support on Tufts Giving Tuesday!

Students and Student Organizations can submit events to JumboLife! Add your event by Thursday at 12 noon each week, and we'll include it in the Jumbo Digest on Sunday.

Donation bins are at Ballou Hall, Dowling Hall, and the Tsungming Tu Complex (TTC) near Kindlevan Café. Food can also be donated at the fridge and pantry, which is behind Dewick.

Are you working late? Tisch Library is open until 4 a.m. through December 19.

We need your input! Take just 10 minutes to share your thoughts on how Tufts can stand out, amplify its strengths, and achieve continued excellence. Your feedback is 100% anonymous and will be aggregated. Thank you for being part of this!

Do you have extra meal swipes as we approach the end of the semester? Donate them to another student via Swipe it Forward! The Swipe It Forward program provides free dining center meals to students who are having difficulty finding their next meal by giving them access to meals donated by students who have extra swipes. Currently, the bank of donated meals is low, and donations will make a big difference!

The Undergraduate Advising teams are available for questions about course enrollment, majors, and minors.

The Office of the Provost invites the Tufts community to host and attend events related to this year's Global Tufts Month theme: Global Health Equity. These events aim to foster cross-boundary dialogue and learning, transcending national and cultural barriers, and can range from lectures and film showings to cultural events, social programs, and more. Mini grants up to $500 are available for event funding; submit a grant proposal by February 4.

Jumbos, meet your new and improved mobile experience! Based on student feedback and user research, the redesigned Tufts Mobile App is built for YOU, with a student-focused persona and enhanced navigation to make campus life simpler and smarter. You'll still have access to features you love like Canvas, Laundry, Dining, and Campus maps. And we're excited that coming soon is access to Free Food Alerts! Access the updated app by refreshing at m.tufts.edu or updating the app on your phone.
