Mead Hall
Mead Hall was built in 1901, and named for Elizabeth Mead, president
of the College from 1890-1900. Elizabeth Mead was responsible for
major changes in the curriculum and structure that allowed Mount
Holyoke to become on the leading women's colleges in the United
States. Brigham, Safford, Porter, the original Rockefeller building,
Blanchard, and Pearsons were all built while Elizabeth Mead was
President.
Mead Hall houses 132 students in double, single, and triple rooms
on four floors and a basement. Mead is known for its attractive
living spaces. Rooms vary in size from smaller to spacious. Mead
is located along Skinner Green in the center of campus. It is next
to Wilder Hall and across from North and South Rockefeller Halls.
It is near Blanchard Student Center, Williston Memorial Library,
Pratt Music Building, and most classrooms.
