Last Tuesday evening, Gamble Auditorium held laughter, tears, acrobatics and resounding cheers. The space hosted the annual Frances Perkins Monologues, the penultimate event in the College’s annual Building On Our Momentum conference. The event gives nontraditional aged Frances Perkins scholars the opportunity to share about their lives and journeys to Mount Holyoke. This year, seven students shared stories at the monologues, and themes ranged from raising children to starting a business to grappling with loss.
