Wildlife warrior: We risked everything to save animals

The New Balance Grand Prix came to Boston for the 20th edition of the meet. The event was sold out with fans hoping to see Olympians and other top-level professional track and field athletes. The sprints for both men and women were packed with star power. The 100m Olympic champions from Paris were both in action: Julien Alfred of St. Lucia raced in the women’s 300m, while Noah Lyles of the United States took on the men’s 60m.

Porter Square is sometimes overshadowed by its neighbors Davis and Harvard Square, but it has a lot to offer. While many Tufts students may initially visit for practical reasons, such as a trip to Target or Star Market, the area is well worth exploring. Just over a mile from the Tufts campus and accessible via the Red Line, the 96 bus or even on foot, Porter Square is a vibrant and unique area that Tufts students should take the time to discover.
