Happy Holidays and End of the Semester!

Congratulations to all Tufts students and professors who have officially finished the Fall 2015 semester! If you are like me, you had final projects straight up until this week, and now you can finally relax with friends and family.

We would like to remind you to please keep checking back with the blog over break. We will continue posting job announcements, events, and regular posts from us and some special guest posters.

Finally, now that you might have a little extra time to mull over the work you have done this year, please keep us in mind. We would love to post some of the thoughts that you have had throughout the semester, and we are always happy to help edit or bounce ideas.

Jess and I want to wish a relaxing break to students, professors, and those of you using your precious vacation days (unless you are lucky enough to work in museums that close over the winter break!)

Safe travels and we wish you a healthy New Year.

Colleen & Jess
