Dear Parents and Families,
Greetings from Tufts! The last month has been a thrilling start to the new academic year. First-year students have met new friends and are adjusting to being away from home, and returning students have come back with tales of internships and other summer opportunities. The campus is alive with energy again, and we’re looking forward to an exciting fall semester.
At Tufts, students get an education beyond the classroom. Participation in the full life of the university is a transformational experience, one that teaches all of us how to situate ourselves in relation to our community, solve conflicts, manage emotions, interact socially, and grow personally. In Student Affairs, one of our most important roles is to facilitate this kind of co-curricular learning by maintaining an environment of mutual care and respect. Together, we work to make Tufts a place known for its ethos of care, as well as its rigorous academic quality.
