297 YEARS COUNTING
Going to college in a city that is almost 300 years old gives our students a unique perspective. We embrace New Orleans and the communities where we live and learn.
A LEGACY OF PUBLIC SERVICE Tulane’s role in New Orleans dates back to 1834, when a group of young doctors started a medical school while yellow fever gripped the city. Today, Tulane is the only major research institution with a public service requirement. Our students work in the community in a variety of ways. Designing houses. Conducting field research. Working in healthcare. Teaching.
DOING SOMETHING THAT MATTERS.
THESE EXPERIENCES STAY WITH TULANIANS FOR LIFE.

BRAIN MAGNET CITY

It’s hard to put your finger on what makes Tulane so special, but if you ask our students, most will comment on the perfect work/life balance that Tulane and New Orleans provide. With 5 undergraduate schools to choose from and 1700 classes, Tulane offers the benefits of a major research-intensive university, while still maintaining the intimacy of a smaller liberal arts college. It all goes down in the #2 ranked best college town in America, according to the Princeton Review. With more festivals than days of the school year, you’ll never be bored here: • Mardi Gras, aka “Fat Tuesday,” is the last day of Carnival season. Monday and Tuesday of Carnival are holidays so students may enjoy over 80 parades. • Crawfest is the largest student-run music festival in the country and happens every April. • Jazz Fest is a 10-day cultural event celebrating food, music, art and culture. We call that “lagniappe,” a New Orleans term that means “a little something extra.”

WHY TULANE? Michaela Loudermilk, Los Angeles, CA Freshman My favorite part about Tulane is definitely the people. No matter where you go, there’s always somebody who will give you a warm smile and lend a hand. It has really made going to college a lot easier. The emphasis on service and giving back to the community really sets Tulane apart from other colleges. It will prepare us to be functional members of society once we graduate.
Cole Hamilton, Glenview, IL Freshman Tulane is the perfect size. It is small enough where class sizes are mostly under 30 students yet large enough where there are still many students left to meet. The Uptown location of campus is also a huge benefit. The homes and park nearby give the area a very charming personality. There is no better feeling than walking out of class, feeling the sun on your skin, and looking up at the Mardi Gras tree on campus.
Malia Tarpley, Alexandria, LA Senior Tulane helped me find my academic passion. I never thought that it would be possible to combine a love for Public Health, Anthropology, and Medicine into four years of college. I also never imagined that it would be so seamless. Tulane is a priceless investment in your future; it is set up so that you can explore many fields of study.
Lexus Thomas-Trail, San Francisco, CA Freshman Students at Tulane always have someone to reach out to in their time of need, and the amount of resources available is incredibly useful. I have amazing professors who offer many opportunities to understand the material and dig deeper into the subject matter. I could not imagine a smoother transition to college.
Dehan Elcin, Istanbul, Turkey Sophomore I have traveled all around Europe yet New Orleans has the most unique blend of culture I have ever seen. The food and music are unique. A large part of my life revolves around jazz, and New Orleans is one of the places where jazz hasn’t turned “elite.” It is still being played out on the streets just like when it was first born. New Orleans and Tulane are true originals.
Barry Rubenstein, Chicago, IL Sophomore No matter if you have lived in New Orleans for a week or five years you acquire an unconditional love for the city and Tulane. The campus has a way of captivating you and never letting you go. The moment you step on Tulane’s campus you are considered family. The life that you live as a Tulanian is a life that most people will never get to experience, but you can’t blame other schools for trying.

Meeting Mr. President Prof. James Carville’s class is called “Current American Politics,” and it couldn’t be more true to its name. More than a dozen students got the opportunity to meet and hear from former President Bill Clinton. He dropped in on the class, which was on a field trip to a senatorial campaign event in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Clinton spent about half an hour privately with the group of Tulane students, discussing the presidency and his presidential campaign in 1992. “We are fortunate that of President Clinton’s many talents, brevity with young people is not one of them,” said Carville, professor of practice at Tulane and Clinton’s former campaign strategist. “What a great experience for our students and a terrific part of a Tulane education.”
The Music is Rising
Our New President Fitts Michael A. Fitts took over this year as the 15th president of Tulane University. He previously served as Dean and Bernard G. Segal Professor of Law at the University of Pennsylvania Law School.
“My primary goal is straightforward: to deepen Tulane’s commitment to excellence in teaching, research and public service. This effort will not only strengthen Tulane’s position as a leading institution of higher education, it will enhance its reputation as a place where the best minds meet to seek solutions to the world’s most pressing problems through social innovation.”

An innovative website, http:// musicrising.tulane.edu, lets users explore the music of the Gulf South in an interactive way. It is the brainchild of U2’s The Edge and other music partners who founded Music Rising at Tulane University to preserve the musical cultures of the region. The website delves deeply into the region’s music genres through cutting-edge performance videos, interviews, artists’ biographies and educational resources. Through a unique app, students and musicians can actually play along with musical masters. The site is a one-stop shop for scholars, students, teachers and aspiring musicians. Music Rising at Tulane is housed in the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South and includes an interdisciplinary major through the School of Liberal Arts.
Beating Breast Cancer at Night Exposure to light at night, which shuts off nighttime production of the hormone melatonin, renders breast cancer completely resistant to tamoxifen, a widely used breast cancer drug, according to a new study by Tulane University School of Medicine cancer researchers. It is the first study to show that melatonin is vital to the success of tamoxifen in treating breast cancer. The research found that high melatonin levels at night put breast cancer cells to ‘sleep’ by turning off key growth mechanisms. These cells are vulnerable to tamoxifen. But when the lights are on and melatonin is suppressed, breast cancer cells ‘wake up’ and ignore tamoxifen. These findings have potentially enormous implications for women being treated with tamoxifen who are also regularly exposed to light at night due to sleep problems, or who work night shifts.
Sometimes we go to the dogs... Adam Kline, a public health major from Lexington, Kentucky, has experienced much of his time at Tulane with a golden retriever at his side. Adam started a service dog training program at Tulane, and Kipper is his first trainee. By the time Kipper is fully trained, Adam will have trained him for 15 months. “Kipper goes everywhere with me except science labs and the gym,” Adam explains. “He goes to class and lays at my feet the whole time. I am training him all day – the interaction is good exercise and socialization.” Adam started the Tulane Service Dog Training and Education Program as a freshman and is training four more puppies this year. “We have six students who will be raising service dogs with 45-50 puppy sitters. It requires a major time commitment, so we have students who babysit the dogs while the trainer is away.” The dogs learn 31 commands and how to behave in public for the protection of their owner. Kipper will go to Orlando for training and then will be placed through Canine Companions for Independence.
TOP DOGS ... and sometimes they come to us.
Tulane students with a soft spot for four-legged friends regularly help out at the Louisiana SPCA. Senior Christopher Halbohn volunteers at the facility, helping care for the dogs. The facility takes in about 8,000 animals a year, so interns fill an important function, helping with a myriad of tasks from clerical work to marketing to working with the animals. “It’s pretty stressful for a dog to be confined to a dog pound, so volunteers basically try to make them feel a bit more comfortable during the adoption process,” Chris says. It works both ways. Around exam time, rescue puppies often visit Tulane’s campus to provide undergrads with stress reduction during study breaks.

PRO BONO PUBLICA
Erica Lipoff combines her interest in law and Spanish as an intern with the Orleans Parish Public Defender’s office. “Our goal is to make the legal process clear to our clients and advocate on their behalf to provide citizens of Orleans Parish with high quality, client-centered legal representation,” she says. As an intern, Erica completes client intake interviews, makes frequent jail visits, provides medical advocacy re-entry assistance and speaks with family and friends of clients. That’s where her fluency in Spanish comes in handy.
