Football players pose with Jumbo in 1935. Jumbo was destroyed by fire in 1975. The Tufts football program is one of the oldest in the country. The 1,000th game in team history was played during the 2006 season. Historians point [3] to a Tufts versus Harvard game in 1875 as the first game of College Football between two American colleges using American football rules [25].
Every semester, Tufts students file into dorms and off-campus houses and begin to pour their funds into area businesses. Students frequent neighborhood dining establishments and other businesses, providing the local market with an opportunity to thrive. This does not even include the rents paid by students living in off-campus houses. The businesses in this community benefit a great deal from Tufts and its students. Moreover, residents of local neighborhoods have plenty of opportunity to take advantage of the number of jobs that Tufts creates in the community. Any institution or corporation that brings employment opportunities to a community is one that residents of said community should appreciate, not berate.
In 2007, Tufts men's lacrosse made their first appearance in the NCAA Division III Men's Lacrosse Tournament in 2007, making it to the second round before losing to Gettysburg College. In addition, the Jumbos had the best regular season NESCAC record, earning the first seed in the NESCAC tournament. Also in 2007, Women’s softball won the NESCAC Championship and advanced to the final of the 2007 NCAA Div. III Softball New England Regional Tournament.
The Tufts-NEMC and TUHS IRB is divided into two IRBs, IRB-Red and IRB-Blue. Each IRB meets once a month. The IRBs do not specialize; each is constituted and equipped to review any type of research study involving human subjects.
Massachusetts No-Interest Loans (NIL) are awarded to Massachusetts students of exceptional need from funds allocated annually to Tufts by the Commonwealth. They carry no interest, and repayment begins six months after the student leaves school and extends for up to ten years. Undergraduates are limited to $4,000 per year.
Among the more than 1,000 Tufts alumni working in communications, many hold senior positions at major corporations such as Paramount Pictures, Warner Brothers, The New York Times, NBC, Condé Nast, and the William Morris Agency. Recent graduates have landed jobs at Burson-Marsteller, VH-1, the Boston Globe, Scholastic, BBC Worldwide, Houghton-Mifflin, NBC, CBS Boston, and Sony Pictures.
