Medford, Somerville local history: Remnants of the Revolutionary War preserved near Tufts

By Arielle Flaherty | November 21

On Sept. 1, 1774, a critical event transpired just minutes from the Tufts Medford-Somerville Campus — an event that some argue altered the course of United States’ history. British soldiers’ seizure of gunpowder from the powder house in Somerville sparked a false alarm that the Revolutionary War had started. Ultimately, this false alarm was a crucial turning point and contributed toward the formation of the Minuteman soldiers and the Battle of Lexington and Concord.

How Tufts students are taking to the slopes this winter

By Arielle Flaherty | February 8

Flying down the mountain as the wind slaps your face: Skiing is a dance of control and freedom. Your skis cut into the edge of the mountain, carving up snow (or ice) as you turn. When you get to the bottom of the mountain, it’s straight back up the lift for another run. Many Tufts students are avid skiers, but the sport’s high entry cost can make it prohibitively expensive. To go skiing, you need to purchase gear, obtain expensive ski tickets and have access to a mountain. Ski passes can be as expensive as $113 on a weekday in New Hampshire. On top of that, gear rentals generally cost over $50 for a single-day rental.
