To the Class of2000
When you first arrived on campus, you were strangers with a common goal to pursue your studies and intellectual interest in the arena of higher educa¬ tion. Four years later you are no longer strangers, you are now alumni of a world class institution. As your undergraduate career draws to a close, you have accomplished something truly magnificent. I would like to congratula! and thank each one of you for committing yourselves these last four years t(; much more than just your studies. In addition to being dedicated scholars, you have also been community activists, student leaders, athletes, concerne citizens and above all, friends to each other.

'lie remarkable attention paid by all of us to the end of the century and the end of the t illennium will truly impact you and your class. You have been reminded, even isaulted, with being the first graduates to move into the 21st century. The expectations t e high: comfort and ability to lead in the new age of global information; increased responsibilities to deal with social ills by being part of an active citizenry; and ommitment to lifelong learning in an era of incredibly rapid change.
Challenges indeed, but, as Tufts graduates, you are well prepared not only to cope but nso to lead. Your liberal education, with its emphasis on critical thinking, a broad range « communication skills, and the ability to live and flourish in an internationally focussed 'orld, are the requisite skills for global leadership in the new millennium. I know I beak for all in the Tufts community when I voice confidence in your prospects to be laders in such an environment.

TUFTS UNIVERSITY
To the Class of 2000:
Well, there it is: the Class of 2000. You are the first class to
carry the designation of the new millennium. Knowing as many of
you as I do, I believe this is very appropriate. Your class had
a deeper, more mature sense of historical perspective and significance
than any class in my memory. You demonstrated more historical
curiosity, a keener understanding of the events of this century.
You were the first class to seek some sort of connection with the
past, particularly the two cataclysmic world wars which marked this
century's tragic confrontations in the name of nationalism and
ideology. You used your years at Tufts to prepare yourselves to
become citizens of the world. While remaining quintessentially
Americans, you seemed to understand that technology was going to
force you to accept a more global kind of life, one which will
take you and your families far from these shores. You are adventurers,
explorers, and people of action. I would like to be a fly on the
wall, when you are finished making your mark on this earth, because
I believe that we will be vastly better off as human beings for you
having made a difference to humanity.

The Observer is Tufts' 104 year-old
newspaper. As the weekly paper at Tufts,
The Observer prides itself on giving in-
depth coverage of campus news and
sports. It has over 30 editors and a vari¬
ety of writers and reporters. The Observer
is the oldest student organization on cam¬
pus and has been the home of several
prominent journalists.
This year Queen's Head & Arti¬
choke celebrates its tenth year as Tufts
Journal of Art and Literature. The
magazine comes out once every semes¬
ter and publishes student artwork, po¬
etry, prose, and short stories. Students
get involved in a variety of ways in¬
cluding submission, selection, produc¬
tion and readings.
Walk into any classroom, any din¬
ing hall, any study spot at Tufts and
you're sure to see someone reading the
Tufts Daily. Although we're probably
most known for our crossword puzzles,
students and faculty alike also turn to
the Daily for campus news, sports, en¬
tertainment and opinion pieces. We are
an entirely student-run publication with
a staff of approximately 50 editors, not
to mention all of the writers, office
workers, and delivery people who help
the paper come out every day. Founded
in February 1980, this marks the 20th
anniversary year of the paper. For those
of us who are a part of the Daily, the
paper is more than just an activity; it is
a true family and a home away from
home. From Friday meetings, to trips
to IHOP, to basketball against the Ob¬
server and softball against the Senate,
the Daily has a culture all its own.
WMFO exist as a student/commu¬
nity radio station for the Tufts commu¬
nity and the surrounding area. Our call
letters are WMFO and we are located
at 91.5 on the FM dial. We are entirely
student-run.

As an organization, Association of
Latin American Students is perhaps
the most unique one on campus. Not
only does it embrace the tremendous
cultural and geographical diversity
that underly Latino relations; it also
works as a voice to a population with
a diverse mix of political and cultural
needs.
The Latino population on Tufts is
growing, and with it ALAS as well.
La Casa Latina was perhaps the first
spinoff of the concern for Latino cul¬
ture housing. From there it has been
the parent of the Latino Center, from
where the work of developing better
student relations is done by its direc¬
tor.
In the long run ALAS hopes to be
the foreground of change while main¬
taining a vibe of approachability on
the Tufts Campus. Whether it is
through sharing poetry, holding a
dance party, or a forum concentrat¬
ing on Latino student issues we have
and will continue to try to cover the
spectrum of needs our population
feels are pressing.
Just as the club has always been
composed of Carribean, Central
South American, and Mexican na¬
tionals and American-born Latinos, it
will continue to work towards provid¬
ing some common ground for enjoy¬
ment and enlightenment in their
Tufts experience.
The goal of Asian Community at
Tufts is to unify the Asian groups on
campus by raising political awareness
concerning Asian/Asian-American is¬
sues in the Tufts community. This
goal is achieved by providing vari¬
ous political, educational, and social
events that serve to educate and unite
the Asian community at Tufts. We
host the Asian-American Culture
Show, Pan-Asian Club Night, and are
currently trying to bring a big name
Asian speaker to Tufts.

Tufts Association of South
Asians (TASA) is one of Tufts
University's largest student orga¬
nizations. TASA's main mission is
to provide cultural, educational,
and religious programming for
students interested in South Asia.
Lectures, poetry readings, con¬
certs, theater productions, reli¬
gious festivals, and culture shows
are examples of the programming
TASA organizes. While TASA's
programming is geared primarily
towards South Asians, the organi¬
zation strives to make its events
as accessible as possible to the
greater Tufts community and the
Boston community.
Now in its fifth year, the Tufts
Filipino Cultural Society (FCS)
continues to offer Filipino culture
to the Tufts community, promote
awareness of Filipino and Fili¬
pino-American issues and create a
network for all those interested in
Filipino culture on and off the
Tufts campus. Since the club’s in¬
ception, membership has grown
immensely in both number and di¬
versity. Members bond through
participation in some of the club’s
many events. Major FCS activi¬
ties include a Parents’ Weekend
Reception, involvement with Dis¬
trict I (the Boston conglomerate of
all collegiate Filipino cultural or¬
ganizations) and participation in
the F.I.N.D. Conferences (the Fili¬
pino Inter-Collegiate Networking
Dialogue). Through Philippine In¬
ternational Aid, FCS also proudly
sponsors the education of two teen-
aged girls in the Philippines. Of,
course, we can’t forget about
Piestang Filipino, the club’s unique
display of traditional Filipino
dance, music and food. The club
is a wonderful medley of person¬
alities and talent, the FCS dedi¬
cated officers and members will
ensure that the family continues to
strengthen and grow.
The purpose of the Interna¬
tional Club is to promote foreign
culture on campus and integrate in¬
ternational and American students,
so that mutual understanding can be
achieved. Social events include the
International Cruise, the Intercul-
tural Festival, and helping out at
Tufts' International Orientation.
Members number over 200 students.

Alpha Omicron Pi’s main purpose
is fun and friends, but we are also very
big in philanthropy. We sponsored our
first ever “Run for the Roses 5K and
Raffle” on October 23rd with all ben¬
efits for arthritis research, our national
philanthropy. It was a huge success and
we had great time putting it together.
This past Halloween we did our annual
Trick-or-Treating for Cans with ZBT
to benefit a local soup kitchen. We col¬
lected over 1275 cans! In the spring,
we look forward to our Valentine “Help
AOII Lick Arthritis” lollipop sale and
formal rush. On the outside, Alpha
Omicron Pi looks like an ordinary
“club” of 60 girls. What makes us spe¬

AOII sisterhood is unconditional, like
family. Organizations can be friends,
but AOII are sisters.
Zeta Beta Tau is a fraternity of just
under forty brothers, dedicated to shar¬
ing a common commitment while en¬
joying lifelong friendships. ZBT is a
diverse brotherhood of Tufts males
whose extracurricular involvement
spans the spectrum of activities at
Tufts. The brothers of Zeta Beta Tau
are dedicated to the university, to the
community and to each other. Whether
it is a spontaneous gathering of broth¬
ers at 126 Packard Avenue, initiating
new men into the fraternity, going away
on retreat together, or organizing phil¬
anthropic events such as the 50 inning
softball marathon (in which proceeds
go to the Make A Wish Foundation),
ZBT offers to its brothers the opportu¬
nity to make lasting friendships and to
serve the community and the school.
One brother describes the fraternity
best, “When I first met the brothers, I
realized that they had a bond with each
other that I had with few people at
Tufts. It was that sense of brotherhood
and trust that convinced me that I
wanted to be a brother of Zeta Beta Tau
Fraternity.” To its brothers, ZBT is
about brotherhood, trust and charity.
Since 1998, the Omicron Chapter of
Zeta Beta Tau has made itself known
as a powerhouse of excellence at Tufts
University. Our brothers have distin¬
guished themselves as true campus
leaders, heading organizations such as
the Inter-Greek Council, Concert
Board, TUTV, The Zamboni, The Tufts
Daily, and others. As a fraternity we
have dedicated ourselves to volunteer
service (running major events through¬
out the year for charities like the
Somerville Battered Women Shelter
and The Make-A-Wish Foundation), as
well as to excelling academically. Talk
to any one of us and you’ll see why we
say that it’s great to be a Zebe!
The Inter-Greek Council is the
governing body for the ten fraternities
three sororities, and one Co-ed Greek
House at Tufts University. We workj
closely with every Greed Organization
on campus, the Inter-Fraternity Coun¬
cil (IFC), the Pan-Hellenic Council
(PHC), and the Dean of Students Of¬
fice. Through these numerous organi¬
zations, we oversee Fraternity and So¬
rority Rush and plan events including Fall
Formal, Homecoming Block Party, anc
Spring Block Party. We have an active
IGC-Judiciary Board that handles mosi
problems that arise within the Greek
Community and we have a students ac¬
tive on the Dean of Student’s Committee
on Social Fraternity and Sorority Life
(CFS). Our executive board has mem¬
bers from many of the Greek Organiza¬
tions who work closely together to plan
events, support philanthropies, and iml
prove the general view of the Greek Com¬
munity.

activity of the year?

The Fencing Club exists as a club
sport for men and a program whereby
people interested in the sport of fenc¬
ing can come and learn about fencing,
and how to fence, and ultimately can
compete with us in the NESCAC con¬
ference. We coexist with the Women’s
Varsity Fencing Team, working to¬
gether to improve our skills and reach
fencing to people interested. Last year
the men’s team placed fourth in the
conference and the women’s team tied
for first. We compete in three weap¬
ons: foil, epee, and saber.
The Tufts Mountain Club is a non-
Senate funded organization with over
300 members, making it the second
largest group on campus. The Moun¬
tain Club’s prupose is to provide a form
for nautre interested souls at Tufts. Our
activities include regular training and
excursions in technical rock climbing,
weekend-long trips throughout the wil¬
derness of New England for warm and
cold weather backpacking, kayaking,
canoeing, white-water rafting, ice
climbing, skiing (both cross-country
and downhill), showshoeing, hiking,
skydiving, spelunking, mountain bik¬
ing, and other diversions. The members
of the Club are the caretakers of the
‘Loj,’ a log cabin style building located
on a large plot of forested land in North
Woodstock,New Hampshire. Club mem¬
bers and other Tufts students can pay a
small fee to spend a weekend of rug¬
ged-style relaxation away from classes
and the uncivilized urban world of Bos¬
ton. The club is organized and run by a
member-elected board of executives,
who undertake such responsibilities as
organizing trips and events, the upkeep
of the Loj, and care of Club equipment.
The Taekwondo Club is a very
hard-working and fun oriented group.
We enjoy our vigorous workouts,
which keep us in great shape and also
prepare us to fight against other
schools. We’ve had great memories to¬
gether which include flap jacks and
forties, our annual 24 hour pre-spring
fling party, and regular get togethers at
Neha’s house, torturing her cat and
“walking the dog.” Although we’ve
suffered our share of dislocated fingers,
fractures, kicks below the belt, run-ins
with wooden boards, sprained ankles,
and many nights praying to the
porcelian gods, it’s been great and
there’s always more to come.
“Fencing attracts people who are look¬
ing for a new way to keep fit and to
learn discipline. You can only improve
if you’re focused, and I think people
know that once they show up, so they
want to try harder to become
competative. It’s one of the few sports
you can pick up when you get to col¬
lege, and be a champion by the time you
leave.” - Saeed Farouky

Spirit of Color members, more aware
of the rich and various historical cul¬

sity population. We strive to achieve
this through singing, dancing, and act¬

The Poets Society is a newly resur¬
rected organization whose mission is to
find the writers hiding on campus and in
other Boston schools and bring them to¬
gether to inspire one another. In prosaic
terms, we are trying to build a literary
community that spans the gap between
students of different Alma Maters and
those that move in different campus
circles. To facilitate this, we are pursu¬
ing multiple projects. ARIAS (a rose is
a stinkbomb) are small groups of writers
that meet weekly to discuss and critique
one another's work. Weekend excursions
allow us to explore the literary history of
Boston and the physical world beyond
campus. With other universities, we hold
informal readings and inspiration work¬
shops, which introduce us to different per¬
spectives and styles. In the spring, we
hope to publish the first annual anthol¬
ogy of student poetry, which will include
works from each school involved in the
exchange.

campus publications and worked for
elected officials such as Senator John

others. We also work with college

Friends of Israel is an organization
that seeks to promote awareness about
Israeli politics and culture. Although

Oxfam Cafe is a comfy student-run
cafe, tucked away in back of Miller

poverty in Third World Countries. The
Collective organizes a 24 hour Fast in

Tufts Men Against Violence are a
group of Tufts men dedicated to creat¬
ing social change through personal ac¬
tivism, self-exploration, and education.
Tufts Republicans is an organiza¬
tion devoted to protecting the rights of
each individual and the philosophy of
conservatism, fiscally and socially.
The mission of United Leaders for
a Better Tomorrow, a nonprofit, pub¬
lic service organization, is to promote
statesmanship in politics across the
country. United Leaders seeks to get
more college students interested in a
career of public service and to show
people that you can enter the field of
politics without compromising your
beliefs.
The Leonard Carmichael Society,
Tufts' community service umbrella or¬
ganization, surpassed all expectations
in this, its 41st year. LCS's 40 pro¬
grams, which are completely student-
run, were staffed by over 85 talented
and dedicated Jumbos this year. These
programs offered a variety of commu¬
nity service activities related to the is¬
sues of hunger, homelessness,
mentoring, literacy, education, health,
and other special interests. Since the
spring of 1999, LCS has expanded on
the diversity of its programming by ac¬
cepting three new programs: Kids to
College, Tufts Elementary Science En¬
richment Program (T.E.S.E.P.), and
College High School Alliance: A Nexus
for Creative Education (C.H. A.N.C.E.).
This diversity, coupled with an increas¬
ingly civic-minded student body, caused
LCS's volunteer membership to soar
above the 1000 mark last spring for the
first time in over 20 years.
LCS welcomed the Class of 2003
and kicked off the year with some
"M.A.D."ness at the Made A Difference
Rally and volunteer trips held during
Fall Orientation. Over 250 incoming
freshmen were inspired to get involved
thanks to guest speakers President
DiBiaggio and Robyn Gittleman. Hun¬
dreds of Jumbos enjoyed a night out on
the town on October 1st compliments
of the 4th annual LCS Semiformal.
This year's event raised over $4500 for
the Welcome Project, a community-
based organization in Somerville.
LCS members also planned more
than a week's worth of concentrated
LCS events during mid-October called
Into the Streets. More than 30 events
were offered to the Tufts community
during these nine days. These events
focused on both providing volunteer op¬
portunities aimed at addressing the
needs of the surrounding communities
as well as educational events which
attempted to address the problems in th
communities and potential solutions t
them. In addition, LCS continued t
increase its campus-wide appeal b
publishing four more installments of th
recently created LCS newsletter1
Leonard's Letter.
The past few years have been on
long success story for the Leonar
Carmichael Society. LCS would lik
to thank all the Jumbos who took tl
time to make a difference this year
each one of you is a hero. And a vei
special thanks to the Class of 2000.
Because of your compassion for otl
ers and dedication to your communit
you have changed countless lives in tl
course of your years at Tufts. Aiwa};
remember where you got this passic
from, and be sure to spread it whe|
ever you go.
Best of luck in all you do.
Programming Organ AppleJam, Midnight Cafe, Off-Hill Council, Programming Board, Class Councils, Concert Board, Entertainment Board, Film Series, Lecture Series, Spirit Collation
Senior Class Council is comprised
of a group of seniors that work all year
to bring activities and class spirit to the
Tufts campus.
The mission of the Concert Board
is to provide quality music entertain¬
ment for the Tufts Community by open¬
ing our stage to both local and national
music arts. Wc produce four concerts
each year, the largest of which is Spring
Fling on the President’s Lawn. Wc also
run an annual “Battle of the Bands” to
allow Tufts-based bands to compete to
open for larger headlining acts. As a
board, we vote on which acts to bring
ton Tufts, as well as work security for
each concert. CBK.A!
Tufts University Spirit Coalition
is responsible for improving the sense
of community and general morale at
Tufts through social programming.
Our goal is to increase the spirit and
Tufts pride on campus by helping plan
Orientation, Homecoming, Winter
Weekend, and Spring Fling, in addition
to many other events.

The Tufts American Institute of
Chemical Engineers is an active
group of the undergraduate chemical
engineering students. We organize
field trips to local plants to give mem¬
bers a better understanding of what
chemical engineers can do. AIChE
serves the students by bringing in
guest speakers from industry, foster¬
ing a cooperative environment for
students to work together, and creat¬
ing a network of advice and help for
underclassmen to be guided by older
students in their journey through
chemical engineering at Tufts. We
also hold several fun events, includ¬
ing a trip to the Boston Museum of
Science, an annual trip to Busch-
Brewery in the spring, and a "subs
and study" night during finals, where
ChemEs can pool their knowledge
over snacks and a party sub. It's been
a great year for AIChE, and we hope
for many more!
The American Society of Me¬
chanical Engineers gives students a
chance to delve deeper into the field
of mechanical engineering than is
otherwise possible in the classroom.
Through ASME, students can work
on hands-on projects to enhance their
skills such as the Soapbox Derby or
the Oxfam Hunger Project. Students
also have the opportunity to visit
companies, go on tours, and attend
seminars in an effort to find the
branch of mechanical engineering
that best suits the individual.
It is the goal of the Tufts Univer¬
sity Pre-Veterinary Society to pro¬
vide a resource for pre-veterinary stu¬
dents from which they may attain
knowledge about veterinary applica¬
tion requirements, the veterinary ap¬
plication process, and volunteer op¬
portunities. We also work to promote
veterinary knowledge and animal
welfare through current veterinary
topic, community involvement, and
fund raising.
The mission of the Society of Phys¬
ics Students is to provide an enhanced
academic and social experience for Tufts
students interested in physics and to pro¬
mote general public interest in physics.
The Society of Women Engineers
is a group of female engineers repre¬
senting women's interests in engineer¬
ing. We are aimed at engineering out¬
reach to younger girls, professional de¬
velopment and guidance for female en¬
gineers at Tufts and social activities to
provide unity among the engineering
community. Some of our main events
include a student-faculty dinner and
awards ceremony, various seminars and
conferences involving networking, and
a girl scout badge workshop. We have
a lot of fun and over 100 members!
Asian Christian Fellowship, Catholic Center, Christian Fellowship, Episcopal Student Fellowship, Hillel, Islamic Society, Orthodox Christian Fellowship, Protestant Student Fellowship
As the second largest student orga¬
nization on campus, Hillel holds nu¬
merous events for the entire Tufts com¬
munity. Being the center for Jewish
life on campus, we provide services and
meals for Shabbat as well as for all of
the holidays throughout the year. But
our programming is not restricted to
these religious activities. We plan a
yearly semiformal, have a night of jazz
and fondue, bring in speakers from
around the country, hold a weekly text
study, and bring together hundreds of
Jewish students from different back¬
grounds at over two hundred programs
throughout the year. This year was the
first for our Tzedek Hillel Initiative,
-—--at-—-——---
bringing together social justice and
Jewish learning in a meaningful way.
This year was also the fourth year for
our popular freshman retreat, the third
year we sent a group of students to the
United States Holocaust Memorial
Museum (in conjunction with the
LGBT Center), and the first time that
we have ever sent 60 students to Israel
absolutely for free! Hillel is a place
where all are welcome, and we con¬
stantly look forward to meeting new
people and having them involved in our
wonderful programming.
The Orthodox Christian Fellow¬
ship was formed to bring Orthodox
Christian students together who are in¬
terested in learning about living the
New Testament Faith through discus¬
sions, prayer, services, and fellowship.
Our OCF is made up of Eastern Ortho¬
dox Christians from a variety of ethnic
backgrounds (Greek, Russian, Roma¬
nian, Serbian, Lebanese, Egyptian,
Ukrainian, Armenian, Bulgarian, Alba¬
nian, Ethiopian, Syrian, and American)
and gives Orthodox Christian students
an opportunity to grow in Faith and
Tradition. Our purpose is to foster a
sense of community between all stu¬
dents of the Orthodox faith and to de¬
velop a fruitful relationship between
them and to better campus life through
fellowship, social events, lectures, re¬
treats, church visitations, and Orthodox
Christian Liturgy and worship.
Tufts Protestant Student Fellow¬
ship is an on campus group, designed
to meet the needs of all forms of prot-
estant worship, including service, bible
study, retreats, and dinners. Main ac¬
tivities include: Fall Concert (free ad¬
mission), Spring retreat, weekly service
(Epicopal Priest and Fold rock guitar¬
ist Sunday 6:30), and various dinners.
"Yes, we have a yearbook"
It wasn't easy. At the beginning of the year, the yearbook staff consisted of one unsuspecting editor-in-chief. Prospects looked good, however, after the first activities fair; it looked like there was a great interest in the Yearbook and it seemed the book would go off with out a hitch. Over a rela¬ tively short period of time, meeting attendaence dwindled. Soon, the staff was down to its core of nine very enthusiastic, dedicated and hard-work¬ ing editors.
Although there were a few problems - late nights, late deadlines, computer crisis' - everyone pulled together to produce one of the best books Tufts has seen in recent memory. Awareness and interest were raised across the campus and record sales were recorded. All of these successes despite it's small size and lack of university yearbook experience, the Jumbo staff persevered and sur¬ passed expectations.
I would like to takes this time to thank my staff for all of the hard work and time they poured into this book. The yearbook is a memory book.
Although its utility may seem unclear now, 10, 20 or even 30 years down the line, I promise that it will be pulled out of the back of the closet, dusted off and carefully leafed through, bringing back smiles and (hopefully) laughter, in remembrance c four amazing years at Tufts. When looking throug this book at the next reunion, remember the awe¬ some staff who helped make the 2000 Jumbo pos¬ sible:
Erica Chazin, Rina Eisenberg, Diana Fischman, Emily Harris, Jocelyn Hall, Laura Horwitz, Melissa Lobel, Jenna Koch, Liz Mullane, Missy Pope and Maria Staroselsky.
A very BIG thank you to a few more people who, without them, there would be no yearbook:
Tom Kelley, Jostens Representative; Caren Orlick-Korin, DaVor Studio lifesaver; Paul Sweeney, Sports Information Coordinator; Frank Nocito, Budget Coordinator; TCU Treasury; and Jodie Nealley and Dot McAveeney, Office of Stu¬ dent Activities.
Thank you everyone, without you this would n< have been possible!

"The best thing about yearbook is even though we're small and not that many people know about it, we have a lot of energy
and new ideas to improve the book." Laura Horwitz
Being part of the yearbook staff is a great way to ecome more involved and learn more about Tufts
University. Having worked on the clubs and cganizations section, I've discovered a lot of clubs I lever new existed. Tufts really has a lot to offer to a
variety of students." Jocelyn Hall

Darling Marina: May 21,2000
MEMORIES
After having 3 sons, this was Dad's last chance for a daughter and Mom desperately wanted another child. Months later out "popped" our beautiful Marina with a full head of dark brown hair--what a fabulous emotional experience it was. Mom breast fed you for 8 months--it was hard to stop, she loved you so much. As you began to grow, walk and talk, you uttered your first word, "self," a word that has transcended your entire life.
Dad loved to feed you cheerios, remember. "That stupid little girl with that dumb face cannot get us, we are quicker than she is. Hey watch out, here she comes! Aughhhh!"
Then came nursery school--what an angel you were, but tucking you in sometimes proved difficult--when we kissed you, we would get an elbow in our face.
Public school was next, what a disaster. With screaming teachers, it was so difficult for you to learn, you were so frustrated. Combining that "c" word with "self' was an impossibility.
Ice skating was fun--you sure enjoyed all your birthdays at Skyrink. Horseback riding was your specialty. Wow! what a jumper, a natural.
You started studying piano when you were tiny, after being inspired by the "Snake Charmer," we always knew you had talent. Sara kept teaching even though you had trouble practicing, but finally you had a breakthrough and how wonderfully you learned to play.
The Dalton School, your middle school/high school, was a fabulous place. It was difficult at first, but you persevered, you had an inner strength that would not quit and you certainly succeeded: First cellist, captain of the soccer and softball teams, the award for athlete of the year and your "One Woman Show." Wow! what a show with its arias, cello and piano concertos. You finally succeeded in fusing your "self with that elusive "c" word.
Finally, came college!! What a shock, you got into Tufts University. You were surprised, but we weren't. We knew the strength of character you had, the will to surmount all obstacles that had and would confront you. It has been a great four years. You certainly expanded your world. You really have grown.
Now that graduation is here you must know how much we love you and how much we have admired your will to succeed, your will to learn. You truly embody the idea of "self and "Confidence.
You are everything any parent or brother could ever want and we thank you for being our daughter and sister and most of all for being yourself!
Love,
Mom, Dad, Erik, Brandy & Abby

We can’t believe four years have passed,
It’s graduation time.
To let you know how proud we are,
We wrote this little rhyme.
For now it’s time to say good-bye,
Four years at Tufts are gone.
Your parents have no money left,
Say tata, au revoir, so long.
You studied hard for every course,
And got the grades that show,
You aren’t just a pretty face,
Engineering you do know.
Go out in the world and find your niche,
For your talents there’s a place.
We believe you have great potential
To improve the human race.
And some day many years from now
You’ll be a shinning star,
And all will see what we always knew,
How wonderful you are.
All our love,
Mom, Dad and Jaclyn

You once wrote “My name is Natalie,
And I m nine years old - Though I’m nine,
I’m not very bold.”
Well you are - you’ve come a long way -
Parkersburg - Chicago - Detroit - Pittsburgh
And now here by the Bay
So thankful you chose not to go to Swarthmore.
Tufts University has meant so much more.
Henrietta’s Kitchen, Durgin Park, Anthony’s Pier Four.
At times, we feel to be on a culinary tour.
From Freshmen Year and your time on crew,
The four years have miraculously flew.
First moved to the fourth floor of Houston Hall,
Then you pledged Chi Omega and had a ball.
Dorm to Sunset Road to Professors Row -
You kept it exciting and never slow.
Pubs like Joshua’s Tree or the Crimson in Harvard Square,
Boredom is something exceedingly rare.
Yet you worked hard and made the Dean’s List -
Something that always caused our eyes to mist.
You found a poem on your school desk each year in times past,
but alas, as for school poems, this must be the last.
Whether Clinical, Psychology, or Child Behavior,
For the future, please do us this favor.
Stay the same sweet person - kind and true,
And remember the days of brown and blue.

Alysse Wurcel Dear Alysse:
In late August of 1996, you journeyed from the “known” in Hamden, Connecticut to explore a new galaxy, Tufts
University. This New World was clearly comprised of a fascinating assortment of “aliens,” all attempting to mask their
butterflies and insecurities. Yet, they, like you, were eager for the opportunity to wear the “Jumbo” emblem. Little by
little, egos were quieted, personal walls came down, and the freshmen conglomerate arrived at two crucial realizations:
that Tufts is an Ivy League school, and the “J.Crew” magazine, a bible. Freshmen then, seniors now, a four-year span
dotted with peaks and valleys.
Lyssie, your graduation with honors is a magnificent achievement. Tufts has provided you with a treasure chest of
knowledge, memories and precious ties that are yours, forever and ever. Despite the fact that you call us “REPUBLI¬
CANS,” we are so proud of your moral conscience, leadership, and community involvement. Your experiences with
Visions, Jazz Band, Tufts Dance Collective, New England Medical Center, Search For A Cure, D.J. Mike, the
Somerville Police (for sociology!), and your adopted Russian family, have all left their imprint on you. And living with
fifteen people over the last four years has taught you the importance of patience, communication and above all, a sense
of humor. Whether you’re called Lyssie, Boombie, Punkey, Tuna, or Gilah-Tequila, you are one fun-loving, remark¬
able person!
Lyssie, as an alumnus of the Class of 2000, embrace the new millennium with hope and fervor. We know that your
heart and mind will guide you through other “galaxies.” As you satellite around, know that we will always be there for
you, and love you dearly.
Best wishes to your group of friends from Carmichael, Miller, and Chetwynd. It has been fun getting to know you
and we look forward to post-Tufts visits! Best of luck - Mom, Dad, Brian and Julie.

Irene Zaki
T o our sensible and sensitive daughter,
whose hard-work and perseverance we have
always admired.
Your sincerity and directness were always
your greatest assets when dealing with people.
Your easygoing and charming
attitude in life made all who have known you
get closer and enjoy your friendship. You are eloquent, outspoken, idealistic, hard-working,
lloving, helpful, honest, kindhearted and
sincere, and most of all you have always
followed your beliefs and integrity.
Our advice today is well known to you since
your childhood, "Praise The Lord God at all
times and ask Him to guide you course. Then
all you do and all you plan will prosper."
Tob. 4:19
One word we would love to whisper in your
ear; In life out there, try to be more realistic
\lthan idealistic, in your search for Utopia.
Life is ready for you with wide open arms to
iembrace you in a future made out of your dreams, lots still to come after you've crossed this first mile¬
stone successfully.
We are quite confident that you will reach the highest levels in a bright future as you always aim for
perfection. | v. v Now that you are on the threshold of actual life, keep your mind open and your ideas flexible. May the
Lord guide you and may His blessings and peace prevail on your future, we wish you all the success.
Thanks for being you and making us the proudest parents on earth.
Mom, Dad & your brother Maurice
