Description

In September 1972, a group of women made history when they arrived at Holy Cross as the College’s first full-time female students.

Fifty-one years later, thirty women from the classes of 1974, 1975 and 1976 volunteered to share their Holy Cross stories in a series of oral history interviews. Selected content from these interviews were used to create this compliation video.

(A shorter highlight reel was derived from this video and was shown at Lighting the Way Together, a campus event for all members of the classes of ’74, ’75 and ’76 to revisit their experiences and the campus through social events, panel discussions and other opportunities. This event took place at the College of the Holy Cross on October 27-28, 2023.)
