Mount Holyoke College

South Hadley, MA

This week’s subject matter embodies everything I love about living in this area-rich history, great architecture and the opportunity to capture seasonal changes.

Founded in 1837 by chemist and revolutionary educator Mary Lyon, Mount Holyoke is the nation's oldest continuing institution of higher learning for women. It was the first of the Seven Sisters-the female equivalent of the predominantly male Ivy League.

Today, Mount Holyoke is recognized worldwide for its rigorous and innovative academic program, its global community, its legacy of women leaders, and its commitment to connecting the work of the academy to the concerns of the world.
