Each year, thousands of Tufts parents make gifts to the Parents Fund, and each contribution goes a long way to help Tufts support and strengthen the undergraduate experience. I am pleased to report that this generosity continues to grow. Philanthropic participation by parents of Tufts students in the past fiscal year increased by 50 percent. You also contributed to a 103 percent increase from the total amount of dollars raised during the last school year, bringing the Parents Fund total to $1,785,562. (See illustrations below.) There were also many special gifts toward endowment and building projects, as well as other areas of the university, that are not represented in this total. Your gifts support what makes Tufts such an exceptional and indelible experience. These gifts touch every aspect of the academic mission of Tufts and campus life for students and faculty. Certainly one of the hallmarks of that mission is cultivating an international and global perspective; your sons and daughters have unprecedented opportunities to study abroad and to connect with the communities surrounding P A masterpiece in the works Tufts; we see a steady increase in interest from students in this kind of engagement. At the same time, Tufts remains true to its liberal arts tradition, offering students small classes taught by professors committed to excellence in teaching and inquiry. This great university will undoubtedly continue to thrive thanks to the restless yearning of young men and women to learn. The Parents Fund plays a central part in ensuring that their inquiry is challenging and exhilarating. Thank you for your support and for the difference you make in the lives of Tufts students. Jessica Papatolicas Director, Parents Program P.S. Please join me in welcoming our newest staff member, Linda Levin-Scherz, whose daughter is a freshman at Tufts. I hope you’ll have the opportunity to meet Linda at our next Parents Program event.

In support of general operations for the fiscal year 2004–5 budget, Arts, Sciences & Engineering revenue totals $261 million and expense totals $256 million.

The recital hall inside is designed, for acoustic reasons, as a building within a building, or as Linbeck Construction Project Manager Matt Horrigan says, “a box within a box.” As a result: “An airplane will be able to fly overhead and you won’t hear it in the hall.” The new building, to be completed in December, will give a striking new home to Tufts’ music program, which currently enrolls more than 1,000 students in academic and performance courses while staging more than 80 concerts and recitals a year. Work began in May 2005 on the 55,000-square-foot music building, located adjacent to the Aidekman Arts Center, and soon to be connected by corridor to the Cohen Auditorium. Designed by Perkins + Will of Boston and Babcock Design Group of Salt Lake City, the building will seat 300 in its recording-quality recital hall, while housing Music Department classrooms and offices, a music library, rehearsal space, and practice rooms.

Fundraising coordinator for Tufts Hillel. Marketing specialist for a start-up company in Manhattan. The common thread is not evident at first glance, but it’s there. All three— Jackie Stone, A06, Dan Palay, A06, and Julie Burstein, A05—worked as interns in the Tufts Parents Parents Program office. They each chose their internships for different reasons. Jackie, the crew team captain, wanted a summer internship close to her home in Winchester, Massachusetts. Dan was coordinator of Hillelathon, the Hillel telefund, and when he found he enjoyed it a lot, Hillel Director of Development Jerry Tuckman suggested an internship with the Parents Program. Tuckman also pointed Julie, a political science major interested in marketing and public relations, in the same direction. Dan, who comes from Madison, Wisconsin, says the greatest joy of the experience was the people. “I couldn’t have had better people to work with,” he raves. “They created a wonderful environment.” The others agree. They also appreciate the varied assignments that gave them the chance to develop career skills. “My internship gave me excellent practice in multitasking,” Dan says. “I had to go back and forth between projects—and as C 4 Picking Up the Pieces D A N PA L AY, A 0 6 something came across my desk, I did it. In my coursework, I have the luxury of being able to focus on one thing at a time. And I don’t have professors calling me up, saying, ‘You’ve got to do this right now.’” Jackie, an economics major, spent part of her internship on recruiting activities such as showing prospective students around Somerville’s Davis Square, a popular nearby shopping and entertainment destination. She also researched other universities’ fundraising programs for comparative analysis. And, though her internship has officially ended, she still works occasionally in the Parents Fund office, assisting with special events. Julie used her internship to sharpen her research and organizational skills. In the process, she gained “a better understanding of all that is involved with fundraising—a side of Tufts I never really thought about as a student.” These skills are particularly important as she contemplates her future as an entrepreneur. Now living in Manhattan, she is the conference director for the World Research Group in New York City. She sees business school in her future, and someday wants to start her own film production company. Dan credits his work with the Parents Program for developing his analytical skills in a structured workplace setting. His projects included analyzing the performance of past fundraising programs and mapping the geographic dispersion of current and potential donors. Between his internship and his work with Hillel, he became increasingly interested in professional fundraising as a career. He, like Julie, expects to attend business school, but for now is exploring the possibility of working for a fundraising consulting firm. As a result of her internship, Jackie, is considering a career in development. Her work taught her the importance of interacting with alumni in ways that keep them connected to the university. This was clearly brought home to her during a recent trip to London, when the Tufts women’s crew team was competing at the Henley Regatta. Their evening social with the London Tufts Alliance, a chapter of the Tufts University Alumni Association, Jackie recalls, was “a wonderful time. It was amazing to meet people who were still so strongly connected to the university even though they were across the Atlantic.” “I couldn’t have wished for better interns than these,” says Parents Program Director Jessica Papatolicas. “With their energy and enthusiasm, not only did they give a tremendous boost to the efforts of this office, but they were a joy to work with.” LESLIE LIMON BRIAN LOEB JULIE BURSTEIN, A05 Big leaps Men’s track finishes 11th in New England Open With two top-five finishes, junior Fred Jones led the Jumbos to an 11th-place finish at the All-New England Indoor Open Track and Field Championships at Boston University February 24–25. Jones, a history major, came in second in the long jump with a distance of 23 feet, 3/4 inches—a season best—and fifth in the triple jump, with a leap of 46 feet, 11 1/2 inches. Also at the meet, the Tufts 4x400 meter relay team recorded an NCAA provisional qualifying time of 3 minutes, 18.91 seconds. The foursome of Nate Scott, Nate Cleveland, Will Forde, and Trevor Williams came in seventh. Senior Pat Mahoney added another provisional qualifying time for Tufts at the meet, finishing the 800 meters in 1:54.02 for seventh place. Junior Josh Kennedy was one of three Jumbos in the 5K, placing sixth in 14:54.57. PA U L S W E E N E Y Tufts students and alumni reached out to those in need over their winter break when they spent a week in Gulfport, Mississippi, helping people recover from Hurricane Katrina. The Volunteer Vacation, organized through the Leonard Carmichael Society, paired the 87 undergraduates, 12 graduate students, and seven alumni with needy families. “I think it was a huge success,” said Alexandra Kramer, A06, who planned the trip with Rachel Rosen, A06. “People were able to understand what life is like for those who still live on the Gulf Coast and how much help they still need in order to rebuild.” Tufts connected with approximately 20 different projects and families. While the jobs were mostly limited to cleanup work such as debris-clearing or demolition, one group of students helped build a house from the foundation up, as its future inhabitants watched from their FEMA trailer. Much of what still needs to be done on the “People were able to coast involves clearing away mounds of trash and understand what life is garbage. “It may not seem like we’re doing much, like for those who still but walking along the beach, where everything is completely destroyed, you realize that there’s just live on the Gulf Coast an unbelievable amount of cleanup still to be and how much help they done,” said Elizabeth Fusco, A09. still need in order to Some students spent a day clearing branches, garbage, and fallen trees from a park in the Bayou rebuild.” View area of Gulfport. By evening, the park was clean and safe to walk through again. “It showed that it doesn’t have to take years and millions of dollars to make a difference,” said Nicole Guanzon, G08. The students also visited the house of Verlon Herbert, whose son had seen a TV advertisement about the cleanup efforts and called for help. When the volunteers arrived, they spent the morning spackling the walls, painting and filling in cracks, removing floor tiles, and discarding damaged goods. Herbert tearfully struggled to part with her belongings. “It’s so hard,” she said, “but I feel blessed and grateful that you’re here.” Edited from a longer piece by Rebecca Dince, A06, which can be found on the Tufts website (www.tufts.edu). 5 { “These students are making a difference in themselves, in the community—and at Tufts as well. They come back to Tufts and change the dynamics in the classroom.” Parents Weekend 1 T orrential rain didn’t dampen spirits for Parents Weekend, Oct. 14–16, attended by more than 3,000 parents. The program, “Going the Distance: Tufts and Its Communities,” brought parents from as far away as Australia and China for a weekend packed with purpose and fun. The academic program was a natural fit for Tufts; it underscored the university’s commitment to active service, showcasing how the college remains true to its calling as a “Light on a Hill.” “One of Tufts’ greatest strengths has always been its dedication to promoting exemplary citizenship among its students, faculty, and staff,” said Jessica Papatolicas, director of the Parents Program. “We wanted to showcase this aspect of the university during Parents Weekend so that our parents would be made aware of some of the ways in which Tufts effects positive change through its outreach to communities in the Medford/Somerville area, and in cities and towns around the world. In selecting this theme, we also sought to demonstrate to parents that their Tufts students would undoubtedly graduate with a strong sense of commitment to active citizenship.” The keynote address on Oct. 15 by Molly Mead, Lincoln Filene Professor in the University College of Citizenship and Public Service, spotlighted four Tufts students distinguished in their public-spiritedness. “These students are making a difference in themselves, in the community — and at Tufts as well,” Mead said. “They come back to Tufts and change the dynamics in the classroom.” Their field experience adds measurably to classroom discussions on topics from engineering to public policy,” she said. “We don’t just speak theoretically about immigration when students have been out working in the immigrant community. They come back and hold the bar higher for us.” The civic theme was borne out in a varied program of faculty presentations over the weekend. Parents took in a talk by Peace and Justice Studies Assistant Director Dale Bryan on sustainability in the Mystic River watershed, and by Fletcher School Professor of International Environmental Policy William Moomaw on global climate change. They listened to Jonathan Wilson, Fletcher Professor of Rhetoric and Debate, read from his collection of comic and bittersweet short stories on American middleclass life, An Ambulance is on the Way: Stories of Men in Trouble. More than 100 visitors filled one corner of Tisch Library to hear political scientist Jeffrey Berry hold forth on topics in American politics, from the effect of the Internet to the impact of the Miers Supreme Court nomination. In another room, anthropologist Rosalind Shaw described an oral-history project under way in the AfricanAmerican neighborhood of West Medford. An ambitious program of offerings in the arts and letters highlighted the buzz of cultural activity at Tufts. Pulitzer Prize-winning historian David Herbert Donald spoke at the Tisch Library opening of “Forever Free: Abraham Lincoln’s Journey to Emancipation,” a national traveling exhibition on Lincoln’s quest to restore a Union divided by war. Civil War re-enactors staged an encampment on the Tisch Library lawn in conjunction with the exhibition’s opening. 6 2 3 4 “One of Tufts’ greatest strengths has always been 5 6 its dedication to promoting 1.

Here is just a sampling from travels in the summers of 2004 and 2005. CENTRAL AMERICA UGANDA TIBET Mauricio Artinano, A06, has worked with Habitat for Humanity’s Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean, researching the practices of micro-credit loan management for poverty relief. His experience in the summer of 2004 led to his coordinating an international conference on the Central American peace process in 2005. In July 2004, students Sarah Arkin, A06, Tiffany Chen, A06 and Ana Martinez, A05, conducted research on the refugee and internally displaced person policies in Uganda. Their efforts included work with Ugandan faculty refugee specialists and visits to refugee and IDP communities. Ana Martinez then spent a year developing a Tufts-inUganda internship program that began last summer. Recent graduates and current students Jonathan Crocker, E07, Sarah Freeman, E05, Hoi Yee Lam, A05, Elliot Hirshon, A05, Grant Sharpe, E06, and Julia Tong, A07 traveled to Tibet as members of the first Engineers Without Borders. Their project involved working in the rural village of Gyatsa, Tibet. They also built a latrine system, researched solar cookers, and conducted a water assessment in the community. NICARAGUA Carolyn Matheson, A08, traveled to Managua, Nicaragua, to work with the organization “Asociación San Francisco de Asis in Nicaragua,” focusing on children suffering from parasitic infestations. By the end of the project, she had created and distributed an educational pamphlet to at-risk populations. MEXICO Julia Goldberg, A07, in 2004 worked with “Way of the Heart: The Promatora Institute,” a community-based organization in Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales, Sonora, Mexico. Julia returned in 2005 to partner within an infrastructure of seven promoters of good health. She also composed a Spanish and English survey and interviewed women of both sides of the Nogales border (in Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, and Nogales, Arizona) to compare birth outcomes. The longitudinal study will follow the women for five years. ISRAEL As a dual degree student at Tufts and the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Chloe Pinto, A08, used her talents and interests working with children in Israel combining art and reconciliation. She brought together children’s art projects exploring understanding of their different cultural and religious backgrounds. Through photography, drawing, painting, and sculpting, she created a community for self-expression, allowing children to develop a better sense of themselves and each other. THAILAND GHANA CENTRAL AMERICA NICARAGUA U G A N DA MEXICO GHANA ENGLAND TIBET ISRAEL THAILAND SOUTH AMERICA Takhani Kromah, A06, and Shanique Streek, A06, were based last summer in Medina, Ghana, with the Madamfo African Fabrics Organization, committed to the task of supporting the education of low-income, at-risk children who otherwise would not attend or complete their preschool, elementary, and primary education. These efforts are supported by the sale of quilted textiles made by community volunteers. Takhani and Shanique taught English and created a short advertisement/film highlighting the textiles made by Madamfo African Fabrics, which will be used to generate awareness and support for the work being done. ENGLAND The Tufts women’s varsity crew team, led by team captains Loi Sessions, A05, and Ashley Korb, A05, competed in the Henley Regatta. To develop her project “Advertising as an Agent for Social Change: Thailand’s 100% Condom Campaign,” Zeleka Yeraswork, A05, went to Thailand to conduct interviews and research with leaders in Thailand’s “100% Condom Campaign.” When Zeleka returned to Tufts in the fall, she gathered students from across Tufts who had each been working on AIDS-related research over the summer. This event, called “AIDS Cocktails,” allowed students to share their findings and collaborate on future projects. SOUTH AMERICA Shoshana Grossman-Crist, A07, partnered with “Dirección Provincial del Menor, la Mujer y la Familia in Rosario,” an agency in Argentina that runs a number of centers offering aid to mothers and children in poverty. Seeing the need for self-expression and communication, she provided teens with guidance and resources to develop a weekly newsletter. 11 The Tufts University Parents Committee As of January 2006 Mark & Jane Alpert, A70, A96P, A06P, A06P Massachusetts Erzin & Nilperi Atac, A07P, Florida Jennifer & Steele Belok, A07P, A09P, Massachusetts Philip & Elizabeth Bennett, A09P, London, England Saul & Jann Berman, A06P, California Edward Bloom & Barbara Myerow, A05P, A08P, Massachusetts Alfred & Bonnie Blum, J02P, A04P, Colorado Huseyin & Robin Cavusoglu, A09P, New Hampshire Rajinder & Shashi Chawla, A07P, Massachusetts Ernest & Patricia Corrigan, A08P, Massachusetts Antonio & Joann DeLuca, A06P, Waterloo, Belgium Robert & Mary Eager, A06P, A09P, Maryland Fredric & Karen Edelstein, A07P, Pennsylvania George & Lynn Fina, A06P, New York Itzhak & Ruth Fisher, A04P, A08P, New York Leland & Leonora Jenkins, E66, E01P, Massachusetts Robert & Gina Levine, A08P, New York Barry Paul & Joan Krinsley Rosenthal, A09P, Washington, DC Harold & Stephanie Fowler, A02P, A05P, Washington Norman & Brenda Johanson, A06P, Pennsylvania Steven & Marjorie Lewis, J76, A08P, California Samir Sabet D’Acre & Florence Pucci, A09P, Paris, France Ines Garcia-Thoumi, AG74, A08P, Washington, DC Michael & Betty Kadoorie, A08P, A09P, Hong Kong Andrew & Linda Safran, A76, FG77, A09P, New York Jean Gaulin & Andree Leboeuf, A05P, Texas Gerald & Priscilla Kane, A07P, New York Stephen Livingston & Carolyn Yee Livingston, E02P, A05P, Massachusetts Richard & Lucile Glasebrook, A07P, Connecticut Gerald & Jane Katcher, A05P, Florida Jeffrey & Barbara Gold, A07P, New York John Koeppel & Susan Rothstein, FG70, J71, E05P, A08P, California Margo Golos-Reines, A01P, A04P, M05P, Massachusetts Mark & Karen Green, A08P, Massachusetts Barry & Nancy Greenfield, A04P, California Michael Gross & Nancy Deck, A08P, Washington, DC Lalit & Anubha Gupta, J03P, Florida Lloyd Heller & Cathy Schragis Heller, J75, A07P, New York Seymour & Gayle Israel, A04P, Connecticut Bruce Javors & Susan Cronenberg-Javors, A07P, New York Frank Lloyd & Elizabeth AtheyLloyd, A06P, Washington, DC Steven Manos & Barbara Rubel, AG75, A07P, Massachusetts Fredrick & Robin Miller, A05P, A08P, New York Martin & Sybil Sage, A05P, New York Scott & Rishona Savin, A82, A06P, Florida Steven & Linda Shapiro, A73, J74, A06P, A09P, Virginia Marshall & Heidi Sinick, A08P, Maryland Richard & Robin Landsberger, A07P, London, England Elizabeth Mintz, J81, A08P, Massachusetts Ellen Lane, A07P, Connecticut Sue Mittenthal, A05P, New York Marc & Cathy Langer, A05P, Washington, DC Thomas & Susan Nicholson, A08P, New York John & Randi Lapidus, A78, D81, J78, A05P, A09P, Massachusetts Ronald & Renee Noren, A75, J74, A00P, A09P, Connecticut Alan & Marla Stone, A73, F74, G02, A07P, Massachusetts Thomas Palay & Diane Gutman, A75, J75, A06P, Wisconsin Gary & Sue Tebor, A06P, New York William & Joan Parmer, A05P, A08P, California Robert & Cindy Wang, A06P, California Charles & Carole Pinto, A05P, A08P, Paris, France Charles Zaroulis & Ione Kourides A08P, New York Timothy & Catherine Price, A75, A06P, Maryland Michael Zisman & Linda Gamble, A07P, Pennsylvania Brian & Christa Lee, A08P, Massachusetts Robert & Christine Leibner, A07P, Washington, DC Mark & Judy Lerner, A04P, Washington, DC Alan & Sherry Leventhal, A08P, Massachusetts Paul & Marjorie Stanzler, J73, A09P, Massachusetts Jonathan & Mary Stearns, A66, A01P, Massachusetts Maury & Frances Rice, J99P, A04P, California FIRST CLASS US POSTAGE Parents Program 200 Boston Avenue Suite 2400 Medford, MA 02155 parentsprogram.admin.tufts.edu PAID BOSTON, MA PERMIT NO.1161
