The Jonathan M. Tisch College of Citizenship and Public Service, (originally the University College of Citizenship and Public Service, or UCCPS) is a college of Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts. The college was founded with the aid of a $10 million donation by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar and his wife Pam in 2000 to encourage students to perform volunteer and public services for the community.
In 2006, the school was renamed after a $40 million dollar gift from Jonathan Tisch, CEO of Loews Hotels and Loews Corporation and a trustee of Tufts University.
Serving every student at Tufts University, Tisch College aims to prepare young people to be lifelong active citizens and create an enduring culture of active citizenship across the University.
