Tufts lost three members of the community during the summer of 2007: Professor Gerald Gill and recent alumni Paul Farris (LA '06) and David Rawson (LA '07). Gill, a renowned historian and professor, taught race relations during his 27 years at Tufts. Farris, who graduated with degrees in history and political science, was the lead singer of theMark, a band comprised of Tufts alumni. Rawson studied international relations at Tufts and spent considerable time in EPIIC. They will be missed.
Although these events would normally fall outside the scope of a daily newspaper, we felt compelled to cover these three tragedies. In doing so, the Daily will reuse reporting about the three posted on its Web site over the summer.
