As a Tufts Jumbo

As a Tufts Jumbo
—even if you weren’t an athlete—you
developed your “legs.” It wasn’t just about
improving your physical stamina as you
walked to classes or labs—it was also about
stretching your intellect, your outlook, and
your mental conditioning: a staying power that
remains reflected in your achievements today.

2. A
Jumbo: Dr. Jim Lonborg, D83 (he entered
dental school after leaving baseball).
Today we invite you to renew that bond with a gift
to Jumbo athletics. By supporting athletic programs
and financial aid for student athletes, you can help
to give a whole new generation of Jumbos the
chance to develop their “legs.”
Jumbo Trivia…
3. T ufts, playing against Harvard in 1875. Players
in an 1869 Rutgers-Princeton game played
more according to soccer rules, whereas the
Jumbos and the Crimson ran with the ball and
tackled in true American style.
As a Jumbo, you supported and contributed to
many teams, athletic and otherwise. You lived,
studied, or worked together. Boosted each
other’s spirits. Accomplished a great deal to
be proud of. And in the process, you forged bonds of
loyalty to each other and to Tufts.
