What is Mount Holyoke?
A highly respected womens' college in Western Massachusetts. The atmosphere can be quite depressing at times and the workload is oppressive. Much like a womens' prison, MHC is known to produce an unusual amount of lesbians and bisexuals. UMass males are generally considered as below standards, Hampshire boys don't bathe, and Amherst men snub their noses at...pretty much everyone. The only way for a MHC student to get a man is IMPORT!!
Me: Dude! You slept with her?! I thought you were straight!
Friend: Mount Holyoke College has no penis, I had to make do!

Mount Holyoke - what is it?
An all girls school, member of the "seven sisters" that is located near Smith college, the BETTER all girl's school. It is ranked in the top liberal arts schools but only after all of the other seven sisters schools. Typically inhabited but preppy rich girls who couldn't get in anywhere else.
Guy: What school do you go to?
Moho Girl: Mount Holyoke, I got rejected from Smith and Wellesley. But it's cool, at least this way I get to bring my champion polo pony with me!
Guy: Thats nice...Smith is really close to here, right?
What does "Mount Holyoke" mean?
this is a historically womens college, or an hwc, part of the seven sisters (other hwc's) and also part of the five college consortium. a large portion of the students are trans and/or nonbinary. most of the people i know use she/they pronouns. this school is incredibly queer: most students are part of the LGBTQ+ community, so good luck finding more than 5 cis-straight people.
it is truly a liberal arts college: you can get credit for writing a 5 page essay about your favorite tv show, butch lesbians, and even about TikTok. this school is incredibly welcoming if you manage to find a good group of people.
also it's better than smith.
"So I met someone at Mount Holyoke college and we are dating now!"
"Oh? what pronouns do they use?"
"They/Them!"

Mount Holyoke - meaning
The school in S. Hadley, MA. Oldest women's college in the United States, first of the seven sisters, founded by revolutionary educator Mary Lyon. Associated with Daphne of Scooby Doo in the Five College urban legend. While a top liberal arts college, Mount Holyoke distinguishes itself with its commitment to free thinking and its very strong commitment to social works.
MHC is also known for its beautiful campus, which regularly ranks in the top ten.
As a politically liberal all women's school, MHC has a reputation for having a vocal gay population, but is viewed as a kinder, gentler alternative to the militant, manly lesbianism of Smith College. MHC is also seen as more friendly to males with the yearly dances "Undressage" and "Vegas Night," where the girls parade in lingerie.
This is a school for overachievers.
The Historical expression among Harvard boys was, "Smith to bed, Mount Holyoke to wed."
MoHo: "I took thirty tests this week and wrote four hundred pages in papers, so this weekend I'm gonna get smashed and go dance in my underwear. I earned it, damnit! And then, on Monday afternoon after class, I'm going to go tutor poverty-striken orphans. Tuesday I campaign on the social cause of the week. It's just the Mount Holyoke lifestyle!"
