External Social Media Community Guidelines

Mount Holyoke College maintains an official presence on the following social media sites: Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok and YouTube. The College鈥檚 primary institutional accounts (Mount Holyoke College on Facebook, Linkedin and YouTube; @mtholyoke on Instagram; @mtholyoke_college on TikTok) are maintained and monitored by the Office of Marketing and Communications.

The Mount Holyoke community has a dedication to inquiry and knowledge seeking, and the desire to attain understanding and awareness. To assist our online communities, we have developed the Mount Holyoke College Social Media Community Guidelines.

Mount Holyoke is dedicated to rigorous discourse that is both sound and fair and encourages interaction, discussion, comments, questions and feedback on its official social media channels. In keeping with MHC鈥檚 commitment to freedom of expression, we foster open communication, inquiry and debate on our online platforms just as on campus. To that end, the College expects users to keep comments and posts relevant and respectful. Users should respect the views of others, even when they disagree.

Mount Holyoke reserves the right to review and hide or delete comments that are determined by the College to be:

  • Offensive, defamatory or harmful speech toward an individual, group or organization.
  • In violation of intellectual property rights, state and federal laws, or any applicable College policies, procedures or guidelines.
  • Harassing, threatening or inciting illegal activities.
  • False, misleading or unsubstantiated statements.
  • Spam, irrelevant to the subject or repeated content to boost visibility.
  • Commercial in purpose, to obtain money or access private information.
  • Disrespectful of the personal information and privacy of others.
  • Violating the principles of respectful and open communication, as outlined in .

Mount Holyoke reserves the right, but is not obliged, to review, delete, withhold or hide comments; remove a user鈥檚 ability to comment; and/or ban a user from interacting with any official College social media page at any time.

Comments made on pages maintained by 果冻传媒 are the opinions and expressions of the commenter only. The appearance of opinions or expressions on the page does not constitute agreement or endorsement by the College.
