When I first came to Tufts as a high school senior, I fell in love with the campus. It was exactly what I had been looking for in a university: near a city, but with room to breathe; the right program, everything fit perfectly. The only downside-- incredibly few caches! So with this series, I want to introduce people to the Tufts that I love, and put some new caches out there. So, I hope you come to enjoy the University as much as I do! As this series is placed over a college campus, the muggle factor is high (more so in some places than others), so please be sure to use stealth. Extra kudos given for including pictures with your logs.
Happy Caching!!

One thing that it's interesting about Tufts is its location. Situated right on the border between two towns, Medford and Somerville, as well as being right outside Boston , it allows for both an open campus with a lot of green space as well as a major city not even a ten minute train ride away. The train stop that services our campus is located just south of the campus in Davis square, which is in and of itself also a great area for college kids. With multiple coffee shops and fro yo cafes, it is the perfect area to go study, our just hang out.
The area where the cache is hidden is an intersection at the edge of campus with Packard avenue, one of the roads that leads straight to Davis square. Cache is a magnetic nano.
Parking for this series is accessible to the non-Tufts public in the Dowling Hall parking garage on Boston Avenue for a fee of eight dollars, or along Boston Avenue free of charge… Anywhere else is at your own risk!
Super special thank you to Tufts Facilities and Linda Snyder to approving the placement for this series of Geocaches!!
