Please join us on Thursday, May 8, 2025, at 6:00PM for Tufts University’s fifth MyTERN college and reentry program graduation ceremony! 🎓 The ceremony will take place in Tufts’ Asean Auditorium of Cabot Hall (170 Packard Avenue, Medford MA). 🍕 There will be food downstairs after the ceremony at 8:00PM. 🚙 A QR code at the event will provide discounted or free parking in the Tufts garage – entrance at 419 Boston Avenue. Come up to the 7th floor and exit the building; cross the bridge and the green; walk right toward the elephant statue; cross the street and you will see the building, Cabot Hall. We are excited to celebrate the hard work and struggle, the academic growth, the creation of new dreams, and the care for one another that this year’s incredible cohort of formerly incarcerated students has demonstrated. This graduation ceremony will include the fifth cohort of MyTERN students completing their undergraduate certificate in civic studies from Tufts: Luis Bizzarro, Jody Boykins, Todd Connelly, Sean Ellis, Rocio Lopez, Nathan Miksch, Elba Morales, Tari Richardson, Jason Stiles, and Chiteara Thomas. But after five years, we are now seeing the wild successes of students who continued in school after MyTERN! We will therefore celebrate five students earning their college degrees from different schools, including Tufts University, Boston College, Bunker Hill Community College, and North Shore Community College. Come and listen to students describe the challenges they faced during and after incarceration and the ways they navigate these. Students will discuss what people need post-incarceration not only to survive but also to thrive. And what does it mean to thrive? Yes to housing and yes to employment! But we need more than that as human beings building and rebuilding our selves and lives, relationships and communities. These graduates know it so well and their words always convey moving and powerful lessons. To learn more about reentry and MyTERN, visit our website; follow our Instagram; and listen to our podcast called MyTERN Conversations, on Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. We look forward to welcoming you at Cohort 5’s MyTERN Graduation! RSVP now! Learn more at http://tufts.presence.io/event/2025-mytern-graduation-ceremony
