And I thought Mount Holyoke was a bit odd because they had someone buried on campus.



When Mary Lyon, the founder of Mount Holyoke Female Seminary, was buried on what was then seminary grounds, her grave wasn’t “on campus” The campus, that became known as Mount Holyoke College, was developed around her grave and monument; however, the burials at Smith took place on the already developed campus.

I’ll leave it to others to decide which college is weirder.
