Jared Cohn (’18)
Treasurer and vice president
Hi everyone, my name is Jared Cohn and I am the treasurer and vice president of the Tufts Chapter of Amnesty. I am a senior majoring in Biopsychology with a minor in Roman Civilization and an interest in psychopharmacology. Prior to Tufts, I attended Solomon Schechter School of Westchester, a Jewish Day School, from kindergarten to twelfth grade. By attending Schechter, I obtained a backbone in Jewish Literature and Culture, as well as to genocides such as the Holocaust, the Rwandan Genocide and the Cambodian Genocide. Learning about these events prompted my interest to serve in human rights organizations to attempt to prevent future genocides from occurring as well as to advocate for those who are unable to do so. Aside from Amnesty, I also love to ski and have skied since I was three years old, I am also a black belt in Karate, and love to sing along to Disney movies, especially the first two high school musical movies. I look forward to serving as the treasurer and vice president this year and hope to get acquainted with all of you throughout the year.
