MCLA, Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, North Adams, MA.

"MCLA’s location provided me with endless opportunities to gain professional experience in the arts. I had a lot of fun working as a tour guide at MASS MoCA and in the education department at the Berkshire Museum, which allowed me to figure out what kinds of jobs I would like and to meet a lot of interesting arts professionals along the way. MCLA’s small size helped me develop close working relationships with my favorite professors who always took time to advise me on academic and professional concerns. I really felt like they were with me all the way."

The MCLA Alumni Association consists of over 15,000 living alumni. Upon graduation, a student automatically becomes a member of the Association.

The Alumni and Development Office is located in Shapiro House at 132 Corinth Street.
