Mount Holyoke College Top Questions

they are all wrong because mt. holyoke has the most wonderful and nice population of girls that I have ever come across

Not at all. Mount Holyoke is 80{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} upper-middle class which is predominantly white too. So all this talks of diversity is not necessarily true always

Because we are a women's college, there are plenty of women who are lesbians, but no, not every woman here is bisexual or homosexual, so the stereotypes are not necessarily accurate.

NO. we wouldn't survive mt holyoke if we were drunk all the time.

Wellllll....

To a certain degree- due to the nurturing nature of the community (and the lack of boys) people feel more open to explore their sexualities.

To a certain extent, I mean stereotypes all take root somewhere. MHC is definitely diverse, and so you always find exceptions to the rules.

Not always, a great deal of times we are LUGS or BUGS: Lesbian Until Graduation or Bisexual Until Graduation, but not gay at heart. There are a whole bunch of straight kids too

Not all Mohos are lesbians in fact they constitute a very small percentage of the student body in my view but they are quite outspoken so are more unnoticeable than other students and thus it seems that everyone is a lesbian. Many Moho take school and grades very seriously and getting an A is very important. In class many students go the extra mile and do things not really required in order to get a better grade but not all students. Some students are comfortable with where they are and don't push so hard.

Not at all. People are friendly, helpful, engaging, active, and wonderful

While this applies to most girls, there are a lot of hard working, middle income girls here who don't just throw away their money. There are also a lot of international students who are very frugal but the majority of girls here are rich and throw their money around.

on the outside its looks accurate at times. if you hang out at the library all day long then you see girls making out in the info commons all the time. but there are straight people too and a lot of them at that

almost. yes

yes

We have parties and fun, but it is balanced with our academics. There are 3 coed colleges in the area, we take classes at their colleges and they take classes here.

For the most part.

For the vast majority.

No!

Some of them surely are.

I believe that we are hard-working and drama queens.
