- Welcome back, students!
Everyone's excited for campus to spring back to life.
@tuftsuniversity is getting repopulated! It's awesome to see people all around campus again.- Tufts Admissions tweeted, "Cheers to new beginnings" -- quite literally, as the cannon sported a fresh coat of white paint ahead of the new semester.
Of course, down on the health sciences campus in Boston, students are already knee-deep in the fall semester. Also, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences held its matriculation on Aug. 30. Here's the head count from a Ph.D. drama student:
- Many freshmen came to campus early for pre-orientation activities such as FOCUS (community service), Tufts Wilderness, FIT, CAFE (interfaith) and International Orientation.
Orientation for New Students - Student Services - Tufts UniversityEach year Tufts offers several innovative, optional pre-orientation opportunities to incoming students. Incoming student arrive to campus early and join their classmates in small groups to participate in one of these five programs. Involvement in the programs are based on application processes.- Here, some FOCUS participants load up on breakfast after spending Thursday night camping out in the Gantcher Center before a day of service in the community.
- Tropical Storm Irene interrupted some of the pre-orientation activities for the incoming class, but spirits were undaunted.
Many thanks to @MonacoAnthony for stopping by #FOCUS in the calm of the storm! It was great meeting you and your family. @TuftsUniversityThere's lots of activity to get ready for the start of the semester and freshman orientation. Student groups prep their O-Show performances.
hey #tufts2015, get pumped for your first taste of sexy fabulous mimez at the orientation comedy show! Cohen, 11pm, Thursday. #silenceissexy
Behind the "Fables" (3Ps O-Show 2011)"I call this my 'Trying to look like I haven't eaten' pose" - Kevin Why he is in a dress? Why not? Blocking Scene 6. Practicing lines in the lobby. Cole and Jeff discuss the set. These college boys are models? Blocking Scene 2.
Orientation at @TuftsUniversity is about to begin and the Jills are rehearsing to impress #tufts2015. Who's coming to O-Show on 9/5?
An (Extra)Ordinary TT2 O-Show 2011Prop stock is kind of like the room of requirement. You just need to know what to ask for- everything is in there! (Note: this is kind of a lie. Often a props designer will need to go out and buy something for a show.- Faculty members received props for their training sessions with orientation leaders.
a room full of professors and OLs being taught by Dean Knox is one of the best things I've ever experienced at @TuftsUniversity #Engineering
- Ahead of Matriculation, we crowdsourced tips from students, alumni and parents for the incoming class.
Jumbos Weigh InWhen new students arrive on the Hill each year, their questions typically outnumber their suitcases. Where should I eat? How do I get to Davis Square? And what song should I queue up on my iPod to kick off the next four years of my life?
