What makes Mary Alice Mary Alice: Mary Alice makes nerdy science jokes that annoy her roommate (Elizabeth Schmitt, HC Mt. Holyoke Campus Correspondent) very much.  She’s also just pretty weird, especially when she talks about the miracle of birth.
 
Hidden talent: singing songs from The Sound of Music

Three things you would bring to a desert island: “I would bring Small Steps: The Year I Got Polio, an abundance of purple tea, and sudoko puzzles.”

What are your career ambitions: “I am going to catch babies with my bare (gloved) hands. This is called midwifery.”

 
Why did you come to Mount Holyoke: “When I came to visit Mount Holyoke I was able to go to the Senior Symposium.  I was just taken aback at how passionate each woman was about her work.  That’s really what I want while I’m here; I want to have that passion and to have the opportunities to change the little corner of the world that I want to have an effect on.”
