About Us
Olivia Vejcik
PRESIDENT
My name is Olivia Vejcik, and I am the president of the 2020 Class Board. Originally from Oak Park, IL, I came to Mount Holyoke to pursue a major in Politics and Economics. While attending, I really enjoyed the friendly community and all the great connections that people build through the school. During my time at Mount Holyoke, I did a semester in Washington DC, was part of Res Life as a Senior Community Advisor, and served the Williston Memorial library as Student Shelving Supervisor. It has been a pleasure to be the president and I am excited to be organizing events even after we graduate!

Rebecca Piperno
VICE PRESIDENT
Hi everyone! My name is Rebecca Piperno, and I am the class of 2020 Vice President. I am originally from Rome, Italy, and I majored in Art History and International Relations. While at Mount Holyoke, I was involved with the Mount Holyoke College Art Museum as well as the Admissions Office, but my favorite part about MHC was getting to meet all of our incredible peers. I am so excited to see all that our class will accomplish out of the gates!
Faryal Mirza
TREASURER
My name is Faryal Mirza, and I am the treasurer for the 2020 Class Board. I am originally from New York and Dubai, but post-graduation I have moved to Nashville where I am a teacher under the Teach For America program. During my time at Mount Holyoke I found an amazing community of friends and support, I know that finding this is one of the main reasons I have such incredible memories at college! While at Mount Holyoke I pursued a double major in Politics and Art History. I also served as a Community Advisor for Res Life, and was a swimming instructor for Project SPLASH. MHC gave me so many opportunities and taught me so much about myself, I am so excited to see what we all end up doing post-grad!

Lila Oren-Dahan
YOUNG ALUMNI TRUSTEE
My name is Lila Oren-Dahan, I use she/her/hers pronouns, and I am a Young Alumni Trustee Nominee. At Mount Holyoke, I double majored in History and English and graduated with a 5-12 History Teaching License. I also devoted my time to multiple student organizations and student leadership pursuits: I acted as a chair to multiple SGA committees, was an Orientation Fellow, a SAW Liaison and Mentor, and more. In my time in these various positions, I saw the passion, drive, and engagement that is present within the Mount Holyoke community. Mount Holyoke students fully commit to their responsibilities and the outcomes of that are tangible in the student support systems, organizations, and movements throughout campus and beyond. That is the energy that I want to keep with me in this position and beyond.
