We know students come to Mount Holyoke for the extraordinary learning that happens when we are deeply engaged with one another. We also remain committed to inclusive excellence, meaning that we will ensure that no student is left out of our program. Given the conditions we will find ourselves in the Fall, we must now think creatively about how to deliver our curriculum so we can meet students where they are. With FIT-flexible immersive teaching- we can offer students a robust program of intellectually engaged work, collaboration with one another, and access to a faculty deeply invested in their success — wherever they may be across the globe.
