Indigenous Heritage Month was celebrated through the sponsorship of several offices and programs at Mount Holyoke College last month, with several events featuring guest speaker Larry Spotted Crow Mann. The first event, “The Living Presence of Nipmuc People,” was held virtually on Nov. 14 from 7-8:30 p.m., inviting all community members to view online. A second event, an interfaith lunch, was held in person on Nov. 21 from 12-1:30 p.m.
With Halloween having passed by on campus, the Mount Holyoke community has reflected on how they spent their spooky weekend. While many students attended student-run parties both on and off campus, Mount Holyoke News interviewed students who preferred alternative festivities, including the beloved Monsters Ball.
The vice presidential debate watch party, just like last month’s presidential debate watch party, was hosted by the Mount Holyoke College Democrats in collaboration with the Division of Student Life. All community members were invited to the viewing of the debate in Gamble Auditorium. The event was held on Oct. 1 and ran from 9-10:30 p.m. The MHC Democrats provided refreshments for the duration of the viewing.
