Mount Holyoke was founded in 1837 by chemist and revolutionary educator Mary Lyon. A tireless fundraiser, she traveled endlessly by stagecoach to fill her green velvet bag with contributions. They ranged in value from six cents to a thousand dollars, sometimes consisting of scraps of fabric for students' quilts and feathers for their pillows. Mount Holyoke is the nation's oldest continuing institution of higher learning for women. It was the first of the Seven Sisters—the female equivalent of the formerly all-male Ivy League.
