About Holyoke Bound

Twice a year “Holyoke Bound” serves to enhance the preparatory work area campuses do with students to ensure they are knowledgeable, respectful, culturally sensitive and effective contributors to the Holyoke community. Students working in Holyoke are encouraged to participate in this event that brings together students from area colleges for a day of orientation, preparation and reflection on Holyoke involvement. Holyoke Bound is held in Holyoke, involving community members, leaders, and community-based organization staff as the day's "experts."
