"I would say that the majority of students at Tufts, being that most colleges are liberal, support the decision, but there's definitely a voice that does not approve of it," he said.

But Biacchi added that much of the debate has been kept alive by outsiders and is not omnipresent in campus life.

"People are interested in it as an issue," said Michael A. Lamson, a sophomore at Tufts. "But I don't necessarily think people will go out of their way to protest.

"I think it's been a bigger deal...in terms of national media...that's where I've come to find out that it's a bigger deal," Lamson added.

Fischer said she noticed the same phenomenon.

"Not too many people are very active about the issue any more because we've all gotten very bogged down in our work," she said. "Some students do still discuss it, but most of the ones I've spoken to agree with how the TCUJ handled the situation."
