The Multi-Ethnic Graduate Alliance (MEGA)
The Multi-Ethnic Graduate Alliance
(MEGA) is a social and educational organization serving graduate students
from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, the School of Engineering,
the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, the School of Dental Medicine,
The Fletcher School, the Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of
Nutrition Science and Policy, the School of Medicine, and the Sackler
School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences.
Founded in 2009, the organization brings together students from
all backgrounds and life experiences for social and educational
events. During its inaugural year, MEGA hosted a kick-off event in
Davis Square and moved forward with its plans to establish a
student-run advisory board and a graduate diversity recruiter
program (in which graduate students will reach out to prospective
applicants who come from diverse backgrounds).
Questions about MEGA can be directed to Yvette Dalton-McCoy, associate
director of graduate diversity programs, Office of the Provost, at
yvette.dalton-mccoy@tufts.edu.
Students can also learn more about MEGA through its
Facebook page and
Twitter.
