Publications & Publicity
Campus publications are an important means of staying abreast of events occurring at Mount Holyoke and elsewhere. Flyers and posters also appear regularly at various campus locations and highlight upcoming events. The following provides information on specific publications and guidelines for publicizing information.
Alumnae Quarterly
The Alumnae Quarterly is published four times a year by the Alumnae Association and is distributed at no charge to alumnae, faculty, staff, undergraduates, and friends of Mount Holyoke. The Quarterly’s purpose is to keep alumnae informed of each other and the College, and to consider matters of mutual concern. It features timely articles, College and Alumnae Association news, alumnae profiles and updates, and class notes.
Five College Calendar
Available online from the MHC home page selection “News & Events,” the Five College Calendar lists Five College community events, including conferences and symposia, lectures and readings, dance performances and art exhibitions, and sports, music, film, video, and social events. A limited number of hard copies are also available at the Blanchard Campus Center information desk, the College post office, and the library, although these are not as complete as the online version. Items to be submitted for publication in the hard-copy edition calendar must be returned via campus mail to the facilities scheduling coordinator at Willits-Hallowell Center. Events will be entered on a weekly basis. It is recommended that event notifications and descriptions be received by the coordinator no later than three weeks prior to the event.
Vista
Vista is published twice times a year to inform, entertain, and challenge readers through lively and substantive news and feature stories about Mount Holyoke. Articles cover a variety of topics, including research, teaching, student life, campus news, and important campus issues. It is distributed to a broad audience, including alumnae; prospective and current MHC students; MHC faculty and staff; parents of current students; institutional advancement, guidance, and media professionals; and other friends of the College.
The Mount Holyoke News
The weekly student-run newspaper welcomes articles from any member of the community, in addition to the News’ regular staff writers. Students interested in any aspect of newspaper production can be involved in the publication’s layout, artwork, photography, advertising, business, editing, and writing.
Llamarada
Llamarada is Mount Holyoke College’s yearbook. Produced entirely by student staff, it is published during the early fall and distributed to undergraduates in November. The books are mailed out to graduates directly from the yearbook publishing company at that same time.
Handbook of Faculty Legislation
Consult this handbook—available in faculty and administrative offices—for the official statements on the honors program, graduation requirements, the definition of the duties and purposes of administrative offices and committees of the faculty, and the College’s expectations of its faculty and students. (Some of this information is also summarized in the Bulletin and Course Catalogue and in other sections of this handbook.)
Day Student Handbook
The Day Student Handbook is written by and for MHC day students. Its purpose is to answer common day student questions and to welcome and inform day students regarding the traditions, activities, and services available at MHC. A pdf copy is available.
Rules & Tools
Published at the start of the fall semester by the Office of Student Programs, Rules & Tools is the primary resource for students and student organizations who are planning events on campus. You will find core information about starting an organization (SGA and non-SGA funded), campus services and resources, campus facilities, MHC event and publicity policies, as well as a planning and publicity timeline. It is available online through the Student Programs page.
Bulletin Boards and Banners
Flyers, posters and banners are important means of publicizing events at Mount Holyoke. Bulletin boards are located around campus in the Blanchard Campus Center, the entrance to the library, residence halls, and in each academic and administrative building. Except for the academic and business offices’ bulletin boards, all are available for general use, according to posted guidelines.
