Tent State University

Tent State University (TSU) at the University of Massachusetts Amherst

Current Events
Coming this April: Tent State University!

Tent State is a week long outdoor university shaped by students, workers and community members. TSU calls for equal access to education and it creates an example of what a university should be: a democratically controlled public space that brings together diverse groups to exchange ideas, art, and culture. TSU breaks with traditional forms of protest, allowing us to enact a positive vision of public higher education.
