Mountain Day Alumnae Reunions 2014
From New York to Bangladesh, Alumnae Gathered for a Mountain Day Scoop
On Monday, September 29, President Pasquerella made an announcement: It was Mountain Day! Students made the trek to the top of Mt. Holyoke or slept in, enjoying a day off. Alumnae around the world gathered at local creameries at 18:37 (6:37 p.m.) to connect with other alums and enjoy celebratory scoops of ice cream together. Approximately 131 total events—in thirty-eight US states, including Hawaii, and twenty-two countries—were held across the world, up from ninety-six in 2013. “Getting together with these younger alumnae is always magical!” says Sylvia Van Sinderen ’73, who met up with ten alumnae at Ashley’s Ice Cream in New Haven, Connecticut.
