Hi, my name is George Papanikolaou and I am running for president of Tufts Club Greece. I graduated from Tufts on 2002 with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and double major in Economics, and a M.S. in Mechanical Engineering (Robotics). I am occupied in the engineering field and in the wine business. I am running for a third term in this position in order to continue and enhance the ongoing work of the past years. The team's goal is to enhance the bonds between the alumni members and between the university and keep them tight. This can be done by holding regular events with a social, professional and academic character. Also, to hold joint events with other alumni clubs and to help out in the admissions process for new students. It is my goal to guide this work during the following term and for this I need your vote. Thank you.

Coming back to Greece after more than ten years abroad, I
was happy to find a great group of Tufts alumni. As a Fletcher '06 graduate, I
got involved with our small but strong community here and became Secretary of
the Fletcher Club of Greece. Of course, Fletcher is part of Tufts and so I put
myself forward for the Tufts Club of Greece elections -now for the second time-
to continue the active Fletcher presence in the Tufts board that ensures smooth
cooperation. Serving at the board of Tufts Club since 2007 is a truly
interesting, productive and exciting experience.
Currently, I work at the Ministry of Regional Development & Competitiveness. I
grew up in Kavala, went to undergrad in Manchester, UK, masters in the field of
telecoms at UCL, worked in London for four years and then left the private
sector to become an "advanced generalist" at Fletcher with a focus on
international negotiations and business relations. Following that I did my
compulsory military service and worked for the Navarino Network in Thessaloniki,
a civil society initiative aiming at public policy innovation.

Hi!
I am
Constantina Dalassou and I have been serving as the Secretary of our Tufts Club
for the last term that is expiring now.
I was
privileged to be accepted in the Post graduate Orthodontic Program at Tufts
Dental School from where I graduated with a Certificate in Advanced Graduate
Studies in Orthodontics.
With a dual
scholarship from Tufts for my third year of graduate studies and an
International scholarship from the American Association of University Women I
undertook an experimental Laboratory research project that led to a Master of
Science from Tufts and a Doctoral degree from the University of Athens .
In the pursue of
excellence in my Specialty I completed the exams and clinical requirements that
rendered me the title of Diplomate of the American Board of Orthodontics(1995)
and with a similar process I became Active member of the Angle Society of
Europe(2007).
Needless to
say I belong to the Greek Tufts Dental Alumni group and my profession takes up a
considerable amount of my time and effort always under the spectrum of acquiring
the new knowledge in my scientific field.
However in
order to nurture my humanity that exists beyond everyone’s science and since I
believe in open horizons, diversity, multicultural mixtures and interactions I
decided to work for the general Tufts Alumni.
During this
term we hosted three interesting events with guest speakers some very important
Tufts graduates: the Astronaut Rick Hauk in 2008, Professor of Philosophy and
author Daniel Dennett in 2009 and Professor of American History and Pulitzer
Prize winner Martin Sherwin in 2010.
Working for
Tufts keeps my never ending love for Tufts and Boston alive.
Working with
people from Tufts brings back to Greece the spirit of team work and cooperation
that we so much enjoyed while studying there and so much long for while here
For all these
important reasons I am running again for Secretary of the Club ready to organize
more multicultural events that bring us close together and help us propagate the
name of Tufts
Thank you !
