Diving into the Future: A New Tufts Aquatics Center
A new aquatics center for Tufts swimming and diving—and the greater Tufts community, including Medford/Somerville. Our new aquatics center will transform not only our Jumbo swimming and diving programs, but also our campus-wide recreation and wellness programming by creating a large, multi-use space that will generate countless new opportunities for club sports, recreation and fitness, and wellness programs to benefit our faculty, staff, and student body. It will also provide our local neighbors in Medford/Somerville a beautiful new gathering place for community programs and activities. It will immediately become a vital and vibrant center of campus life for students, faculty, and staff alike.
