Amazing Students, Annoying Administration

Students at Mt. Holyoke are very accepting and always interested in meeting someone with different cultural and life experiences. The problem is that the administration tries to force diversity down everyone's throats. If you brush aside the institutional push for perceived diversity and focus on expanding your own experiences and being open to learning from others, you will meet amazing people from every walk of life.

Fancy and New

All of the Mount Holyoke computers are new and gorgeous! There are many available computer labs all over campus with a wide variety of atmospheres. I personally love the library that could probably pass off as part of Hogwarts. The only huge computer rush is in the science building during lunch when everyone seems to need to print their lab reports at the same time.

Library Is Amazing!

The library at Mt. Holyoke is wonderful. The librarians are very helpful with reasearch, there are textbooks on hold for most of the classes I take, and the actual building is beautiful.
