Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes

I purchased my cap and gown at the Tufts bookstore today! I also received embossed graduation announcements and a brown and blue "08" tassel.

So, now, the pressure's fully on: I better graduate!

It's a pretty hectic time at Undergraduate Admissions right now, what with high school students beginning the college search process and admitted students still deciding among colleges.

But there's an even bigger change: Bendetson Hall has undergone a major renovation. For the past month, prospective students and their families have gone to Dowling Hall, the Student Services building, for information sessions and tours. As of this week, we are once again greeting visitors at Bendetson Hall!

Walls were knocked down and repainted and all of the old furniture was replaced. Gone are the chairs with the elephant-print fabric. In their place, swanky (and super comfortable) chairs and settees in muted tones of brown and blue have taken over the lobby. The new interior design accommodates more visitors and enables them to have discreet conversation clusters.

We hope you enjoy the new and improved Bendetson!
