Student Handbook

This handbook contains essential information for every Mount Holyoke student. It describes the work of essential offices on campus and describes much about college life,  from the residence halls to academic deans, from public safety to dining halls, and from the Student Government Association to leadership awards. It will be a reliable guide for you, as you navigate many paths through the college, as it is full of information about the academic program, co-curricular life, student organizations, social activities, and myriad rules and regulations.  One theme that runs throughout is the centrality of our Honor Code, for it structures all of our relationships and indeed, the life of our college community.
Please browse through this handbook, so you are familiar with all it contains. Then, when you have a particular question, you will remember where you are most likely to find the answer. Keep it on your bookshelf, and take a look from time to time. Be grateful that students no longer must pass a quiz on its contents!
