I am a Mount Holyoke alumna and agree that it was sad that the College had to give up the individual dorm dining halls. However, my friend who graduated in 2020 echoes what I have heard from faculty and trustees that the food is great and that students these days are too busy to be tied down to one time and place for meals. It would have been far too expensive to bring all of the existing kitchens into compliance with the current requirements and it made overwhelming sense to build the dining experience into the renovation of the campus center in Blanchard Hall which was the original gymnasium. Many of the original traditions are in evidence at Blanchard (but not the individual linen napkins and napkin boxes of my day). Congratulations to GoldPenn and his daughter. Not only will she love her 4 years at Mount Holyoke, you will love your four years as a Mount Holyoke parent. lollylolly’s daughter should visit Mount Holyoke (virtually or in person) to imbibe the Hogwarts vibe in the main reading room of the College library which was modeled after Westminster Abbey.
