校友引领潮流

芒特霍利yoke大学的校友已经打开了大门, breaking barriers and launching into the world as leaders since the founding of the College. Our graduates are leading the way — in the boardroom and in the classroom, 在实验室和公共服务领域, 在赛场上和跑道上. Every day alums are lifting up others, calling out injustices and advocating for change.

Launching Leadership

In celebration of the achievements of our alums and to highlight the many ways Mount Holyoke prepares its graduates to lead in the world, we present a conversation series between interim President Beverly Daniel Tatum and a diverse group of graduates. These alums exemplify an intellectually adventurous Mount Holyoke education in action. Their interviews will be posted to this page as soon as they are available.
