Speakers' Bureau Program

The Speakers' Bureau is designed to bring the best of the Mount Holyoke College community to your alumnae club or class mini-reunion.

For a number of years, the College’s outstanding faculty, administrators, and alumnae have kept club members informed about campus initiatives, academic scholarship on current issues, and other topics in which you and other alumnae have expressed interest. We encourage lively lectures and discussions that may include slide and video presentations, master classes, and/or performances. Speakers’ topics range from the arts, history, and literature to College admission and finance updates, current events, women’s issues, science and technology, health and education, and more.

Whether you’re planning an event for alumnae or for prospective students and their parents, the Speakers Bureau can help. If you have questions, ideas, or comments about speakers or programming, please visit contact Krysia L. Villón ’96, assistant director of clubs, at 413-538-2738.

Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because if you don’t have courage you cannot practice any of the other virtues with consistency. You can’t be consistently fair or kind or generous or honest or giving or loving without courage. I wish I had written that first. Actually, it was Aristotle who said it, but never mind.
