Does Mount Holyoke have a gym or a sport center?: Yes.

How many roommates are there for juniors/seniors?: You will most likely have a single by your upper years, but there may be a chance (I'm not positive) that you'll have one roommate as a junior. If you are a transfer, you will probably have a roomie your first year.

Is there one library or more than one?: One very beautiful, award-winning library! It is truly lovely!

Are they open 24 hours?: Only during finals. It is open pretty late anyway though.

Are they located far away from the dorms?: No, not at all, but precisely how close you are depends upon your dorm. Pearsons is the closest to the library.

Is there a lot to do there regarding political/ feminist/ human rights activism?: Do you mean protests, or discussions and club-related options? I'd say that the latter is not lacking at all, but the former is more of a city activity. I think I remember reading about MHC students taking a trip to DC for a pro-choice protest a while ago, and different orgs set up trips related to their different causes, so you will have SOME active protest options. Recycling and waste-management are big issues there right now too. Anyway, MHC students are generally very cognizant of political and equal rights issues. You will never be at a loss for finding someone with whom to discuss and debate issues of importance. You just may have to do a bit more planning if you want to travel to NYC for a rally.
