Uggos

There are so few hot girls at Tufts that the ones that are get pretty stuck up about it. There's a lot of ugly people, although not that many fat people. It's depressing.

One word: Awful.

Don't be fooled by people who tell you there are good-looking students here. There is even a joke about things called "Tufts Goggles" that you have to leave on for four years to remain sane due to the lack of attractive classmates. Sad really.

Everyone's Really in Shape and Really Smart

The fact that you're on a giant hill probably plays into that, but seriously, almost everyone is in shape. The rule at Tufts is that there's no freshman-15; if anything, there's a freshman-7. And everyone's absolutely brilliant. I had a conversation my first week of classes with an incredibly attractive girl over how the position and influence of domestic US politics plays into the world's view of United States hegemony. It was terrific. the next few weekends I discussed Israel-Palestine and the future of computer software as a conflict predictor with friends.

Having intellectual conversations while a mashup between Dave Brubeck and Radiohead blasts in the background at a party isn't normal, but at Tufts it is. That being said, if you want to just relax and party it up, everyone's incredibly outgoing and really into the whole party scene. People are smart, but they're not stuck-up about it.

Average life of the Tufts Student: have intellectual conversations during the week, party it up on the weekend (while occasionally throwing in the intellectual conversation), and then buckle down, work hard, and get some A's, while, of course, doing jello shots with your friends.
