All, As many of you know, we currently have a hawk family nesting on the fire escape of Robinson Hall. You may also know that the babies have begun hatching.
While they are beautiful and it’s been a joy watching the nature show…This has put the parents on super-caution status and they have begun responding to apparent sources of danger. DO NOT go out on any level the fire escape except in an emergency situation. AVOID the back door of Robinson pathway if at all possible. If you must make this trip do so with extreme CAUTION so as to not scare
or alert the adult hawks. Tufts will be installing some fencing to assist in keeping students/staff/faculty safe, please respect those boundaries for your own safety. Thank you for your cooperation.

Good afternoon, I just received a report that a hawk which is nesting in the fire escape on the Robinson side of the two buildings attacked someone. They were brought to the hospital. I do not know if the person attacked was a student or staff/faculty
member of Tufts. A fence will be put up around this area as well as a diversion around the fire escape. Please let your staff/faculty/students know to avoid this area and if they do need to go by the Robinson pathway that leads to the parking lot, to proceed
with caution. Thank you, Tamara Tamara Cleary SoE Dean’s Office 105 Anderson Hall Tufts University 617-627-4847 |
