My favorite MHC tradition is...
Milk & Cookies. We serve milk and cookies in the kitchen/kitchenette/common room of every residential building from 9-10 pm on weekdays. I love this tradition so much because it helps build a sense of community and my A Capella group is also named after it!
My advice to prospective students is...
Explore as much as you can and chat with current students from colleges and universities that you plan to apply to.
I chose Mount Holyoke College because...
There are endless opportunities for me to thrive here. I was looking into many fields of study and wasn't sure what exactly I wanted to pursue. MHC has opened up so many possibilities and encouraged me to explore and succeed on my chosen path.
My favorite class is...
Criminology. I took this class with Professor Sever and it was genuinely among the most enjoyable and applicable classes I've ever taken. I highly recommend taking classes with Professor Sever if you plan to major in Sociology.
