Tufts Dean Blasts Students' Drunken Behavior

According to the Boston Herald, things got out of hand at the Winter Bash at a Boston Hotel Feb. 1.

 

Tufts University Dean of Student Affairs Bruce Reitman scolded students for their behavior at a Feb. 1 school event at the Westin Copley Place in Boston, according to a report in the Boston Herald.

A letter by Reitman published in the Tufts Daily student newspaper Tuesday indicates that 15 to 20 students who attended the Winter Bash required medical for excessive drinking while others were rude to hotel staff and still others were observed vomiting "all over the place."

Reitman also said two students, a male and a female, were seen urinating in the middle of the hotel lobby. 

In the letter, Reitman said several departments are reviewing the Winter Bash and that future planning needs to address "the evidently widespread belief that Winter Bash is a time to get outrageously drunk and go to a classy Boston hotel."
