HOT ITEMS
YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN ABOUT TUFTS THROUGH RANDOM OM ITEMS FOUND ALL OVER CAMPUS.
CANDLE
DRY ERASE MARKERS
ID HOLDER
Take Back the Night is an annual event to stand up against sexual assault on college campuses. This year, students marched through campus holding candles to show that sexual assault has no place on our campus. Nights like these make me extra proud to be part of this community.
Colorful dry erase markers are a fun study tool, especially when you have a wall of windows in your dorm common room to serve as your canvas. Visually working out my study material helps me remember it, and also makes for some nice window decor.
Sure other schools hand out these life savers that stick ck to the back of phones so that at us college students don’t constantly lose our IDs, butt do theirs have an elephant head on them? NO. Not only is this an aesthetically pleasing and incredibly useful tool, it is also a great conversation starter.

TUFTS DAILY Tufts is the smallest university that publishes a student-run daily newspaper. That means, on any given weekday, you can pick up a copy of The Tufts Daily to get your fill of campus events, politics, sports, and pop culture commentary. Not much of a news junkie? Daily crossword and Sudoku puzzles are a huge hit with students who like their morning eggs and coffee with a bit of an intellectual challenge. —LIAM KNOX ’19
FOAM FINGER If you see one of these bad boys around campus, chances are Tufts is coming down from a home game high supporting one of the many Jumbo teams who so often make the community proud. Win or lose, though, Tufts students love to show their Jumbo spirit, and what better way to cheer on the stampede than to whip the foam finger out for the ‘Bos? —LIAM KNOX ‘19
ZIPCAR CARD
CHALK BAG
DADFRAT STICKER
A convenient alternative to taking the train, ZipCar allows students who miss driving to school every day a chance to get behind the wheel again. Travel into Boston, to a nearby apple orchard, or to the coast. Just hop into one of the cars located around campus at designated spots and go!
I’ve recently gotten really into rock climbing! I go to a nearby gym with the Tufts Climbing Team for weekly coached sessions, and I climb with friends through Tufts Mountain Club (which even leads outdoor climbing trips)! It’s a really fun way to get in some exercise while staying far away from the treadmills.
Designed by two Tufts sophomores, this innovative clothing line has been spreading around campus since its creation last year. Students rock the DF logo on hats and t-shirts, but their most trendy item is their stickers. No pledging necessary—Dadfrat is for everyone.
