Mount Holyoke College Introduces the Gates: A Virtual Platform for Community Members To Connect and Network

The Mount Holyoke College Career Development Center recently added a new resource for students to make online connections within the alumni network: The Gates.

Associate Director of Digital Engagement of the Alumnae Association Danielle Lund described The Gates as “an online platform … [and] a virtual common space where alums and students can come together and connect.” Within The Gates, students can search for alums to connect with and filter by industry, location, major and other categories, including campus involvement, primary reunion class, whether or not the alum is a first-generation college student and more.
