Welcome to the Boston Tufts Alliance

 

The Boston Tufts Alliance (BTA), a regional chapter of the Tufts University Alumni Association, is a volunteer-led alumni organization focusing on the development of meaningful programs and events to connect area alumni to each other and back to Tufts.

With more than 26,000 alumni residing in the greater Boston area, the BTA aims to serve the needs and interests of a highly diverse group of alumni constituents.  Through partnerships with the Tufts University Office of Alumni Relations, Tufts Alumni Career Services, The Tisch College of Citizenship and Public Services and various academic departments, the BTA develops a wide range of social, academic, and professional events each year.

 

Boston Alumni of all ages enjoy a day of apple-picking at Honey-Pot Hill Orchards

on Saturday, October 4, 2008.

 

Get Involved!
Volunteers from any class year are invited to come join any Boston Tufts Alliance Steering Committee meeting.  Meetings are generally the first Wednesday of each month, at 7:00 p.m. on the Tufts campus. 

If you would like to connect with fellow Jumbos and assist the Boston Tufts Alliance with their outreach efforts, please get in touch.

How we communicate:
Because Boston is such a large population center for Tufts alumni, the BTA relies heavily on electronic marketing to stay in touch.  As much as 90% of our outreach is electronic and distributed though the Alumni Online Community.  If you are not already a member, please sign up!  Please visit www.alumniconnections.com/tufts. Be sure to register your local Boston address and under email options select to receive 'events' emails.  If you are registered, but have not logged in for a while, check your profile to ensure it reflects your current local address.

 

The BTA was busy in 2008!  Check it out:

 

Young Alums at the Third Thursday Social at Tommy Doyle's, Harvard Square.  

Alums question a panel of top CEO's in the Green Technology field at an event co-sponsored with Johns Hopkins in April.

 

The 2008 Boston Tufts Alliance Softball teams, who competed against six others area alumni chapters in the 2008 Boston Alumni Softball Tournament in June.
