While you're studying and preparing for final exams and review boards, Student Life will launch Jumbo Pet Palooza (April 27–May 4) and share pet photos (submitted by Tufts parents and families) to ease the stress! Let's face it, our pets have a special way of keeping us calm by reminding us to go for walks, socialize, give ourselves treats, and enjoy each day. Follow along with Tufts Student Life Facebook and Instagram for daily posts at 11 a.m. Enjoy the pet pics, and good luck on your finals!

Good luck with the end of your semester and final exams! If you need support during this time, reach out to your Advising Team or take advantage of the resources offered through Student Accessibility and Academic Resources (StAAR) Center and CMHS.
