Student Handbook

This handbook is a rich compendium introducing everything from who’s who in Mary Lyon Hall to what elfing is all about. The Student Handbook is also, and most importantly, required reading on the honor code and other campus policies—the rules by which we govern our lives here. Finally, it is an invaluable reference on the myriad services and opportunities that are available to students, whatever their needs or ambitions.

Those new to Mount Holyoke College should read it with care. However, returning students should also study this handbook—to review and rediscover its contents and to find out what is new. I hope that these pages will not only inform but also encourage and inspire readers to explore the College fully and to recognize and celebrate both the privileges and the responsibilities that we all share as members of this learning community.
