Katherine

The kind of person who attends Mount Holyoke is masochistic. The campus is beautiful, but the people who run the school purposely tries to break you because they want to wheedle out the week ones. The only counseling help at the school is peer counseling from children just as damaged as you.

Catherine

An extremely hard-working and highly-motivated student should attend MHC. The community is very accepting of all people, but if you're not a hard worker, you probably won't survive/do very well compared to your peers. Someone who plans to change the world needs to go to MHC.

Chaprece

A person that is ready to sacrifice. South Hadley is a dead town, so if your from the city you are sacrificing a social life. Most people who immediately adjust well are those that are from Vermont, New Hampshire, Minnesota, etc.... However, one thing everyone has in common is their passion to learn, and do something big and important in the world. You have to be a person that knows how to make the best out of any situation.
