"Mount Holyoke felt right from the first day I visited campus. I knew it would be a place where I could grow and challenge myself. It has more than exceeded my expectations, and I am able to do things at Mount Holyoke that I don't think I would do at any other college, such as play in jazz band, and play rugby." |
