By Jon Svenningsen It’s 11 in the morning and drinks are already being served. Different friends are having different parties and pre-games—some even have their grills fired up. Everyone starts in different places or hops from one location to another, but no one wants to be too late for the big game… No, this is [...]

by Kyle Carnes on Sunday, November 20th, 2011Is Our School Spirit Deflated?
By Elisa Magalhaes on Sunday, November 20th, 2011It’s no secret that Tufts’ school spirit isn’t at the forefront of most students’ minds.
