Introduction



LOCATION

Hollins is a small, private, four-year college located on a beautiful 475-acre campus in Roanoke, Virginia, in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. "The Hollins campus is achingly picturesque, with brick halls and frame buildings surrounded by riding stables, tennis courts and hockey fields and bisected by a mountain stream. The college's main building features a long gallery porch overlooking a picture-perfect college quad; warm afternoons find groups of students and faculty contentedly rocking on the porch's two dozen rocking chairs, talking, reading or thinking."   New York Times Book Review
