Alums Leading the Way

霍利奥克山的校友们一直在敞开大门, breaking barriers and launching into the world as leaders since the founding of the College. Our graduates are leading the way — in the boardroom and in the classroom, 无论是在实验室还是在公共服务部门, 在球场上和跑道上. Every day alums are lifting up others, calling out injustices and advocating for change.
