Why Mount Holyoke?: When I think of why I chose Mount Holyoke, I immediately think back to my visit on campus and the five student-athletes (and future teammates) who went out of their way to introduce me to members of the community, welcome me in the classes I wanted to observe, and spent hours talking about their incredible experiences at Mount Holyoke. Those same five teammates are now incredibly close friends who have supported me through the highs and lows of college. The class I observed was one I ended up taking my first semester and the professor who taught it is now my advisor. My time at Mount Holyoke College has been incredibly special because of the students, the faculty and staff, the swimming and diving team, and because of my amazing coaches who push me to grow and have supported me through the entire process.
