We are pleased to share the What Happens Next? seminar offered by the Tufts University European Center.

Join Tufts Rabbi Jeffrey Summit and Stanford University's Reverend Scotty McLennan for this intimate and thought-provoking program, where we will consider how best to direct our time and energy to ensure our lives are fulfilling and balanced as we age. How do we come to a deeper appreciation of the pleasures we find meaningful, the causes we consider worthwhile, our relationships, our time? Using literature, philosophy, and spiritual sources, we will explore these issues, and many more.

Situated on the banks of Lake Annecy in the foothills of the French Alps, the Tufts European Center in Talloires is the perfect place to embark on this personal exploration.

You can learn more on the seminar registration page .

Our 2025 Travel-Learn trips are now available to view online!  We will post additional trip details as we receive them from our tour operators. And, there is still space remaining on select 2024 departures.

Upcoming Alumnae/i Trips

A note from the alumnae/i travel program on international travel: .

We recognize the great challenges of the current moment. We continue to see the impact of the enduring global pandemic, in addition to great suffering caused by war. Our thoughts are with all countries where violence has caused loss of life and forced people to flee their homes.

We continue to plan for our trips in the future, but we recognize that circumstances can change quickly. We appreciate your continued patience. If you have a question about a specific departure, please contact Taylor Manferdini ( [email protected] ).
