Register (In-Person) Register (Virtual)
What happens when a summer fellowship becomes the launchpad for a career in civic leadership? Twenty years ago, the Tisch Summer Fellows (TSF) program began placing Tufts students in hands-on civic internships across the public, nonprofit, and private sectors. Since then, TSF alumni have gone on to shape the world as organizers, researchers, policymakers, educators, and beyond. This special anniversary panel brings together TSF alumni to reflect on their journeys and current students who are just starting theirs. Together, they’ll explore how civic learning at Tufts continues to shape lives, careers, and communities long after graduation. Registration required, all are welcome. Lunch provided.
