Orientation Coordinators

The Office of Undergraduate Orientation employs three student Coordinators to plan, implement and execute various aspects of the New Student Orientation Program. Working closely with the offices of Undergraduate Education and Student Affairs these coordinators are responsible for the overall operations of Orientation week as well as the training and supervision of EOLs and OLs.

2012 Orientation Coordinators

 Audrey Abrell ’13, Coordinator for Logistics and Communication

My name is Audrey, and I'm a rising senior majoring in International Relations and Political Science. I'm from Valparaiso, Indiana.

At Tufts, I am a coxswain on the Varsity Women's Crew team and a student manager with Tufts Catering. Tufts is wonderful because the whole community, students included, is so supportive. You can accomplish anything here because there are so many people willing to help. I can’t wait to be an Orientation Coordinator! I am really looking forward to showing the new students what Tufts is all about and jump-starting their Tufts careers

 
Babisa Adumbire ’13, Coordinator for Co-Curricular Programs and Special Events

My name is Babisa Adumbire and I'm from Accra, Ghana. I am a Senior majoring in Clinical Psychology with a minor in Communication and Media Studies. At Tufts, I am involved in OneWorld, Tufts Idea Exchange (also known as TEX), and the Tufts Longboading Club. I love Tufts because of the warm, welcoming environment. Students are friendly and open-minded and the campus has an atmosphere that reflects laid-back, accepting nature of our community. What I am most excited for, as a part of the orientation team, is welcoming the new class to the Jumbo family!  

 
Chris Blackett ’13 Coordinator for Training, Leadership and Academic Programming

My name is Christopher Blackett, and I’m a senior studying English and Studio Art.  As a student at Tufts University, I’m involved in Programming Board, Inter Fraternity Council, and Read by the River.  I love Tufts because of the people that make up this university.  And General Gau’s chicken at Dewick Dining Hall.  I’m excited about my position as Orientation Coordinator and am looking forward to working with the OCL (Office for Campus Life) and meeting all the new Orientation Leaders!
