Donna M. Gerolamo was elected to the Hall of Fame for her achievements in the sport of gymnastics.

From 1982 through 1985, Gerolamo was the University's top gymnast and Northeastern's annual representative in individual and team competition at the ECAC Championships. She ascended from Rookie of the Year to team MVP for the following three years and three-time captain for the Huskies. As a junior, she qualified for the NCAA Championships after leading an inexperienced Husky contingent to a third place finish in the conference championships. Already well known as a great athlete, she led the Huskies to the team's best record in five years, 16-3, during her senior season in 1985. In one of the biggest meets of the season. she scored a personal best 35.75 on the uneven parallel bars against Cornell, tying a University record. Despite a nagging foot injury, she was able to qualify for the ECAC Championships for the fourth year in a row.

Gerolamo now manages a burgeoning corporate fitness curriculum in the Greater Boston Area. Away at last from gymnastic competition as a Human Resource Manager with Epsilon, she makes aerobics her hobby and lifeline to competition. She has captured several aerobics competitions, and in 1991 was honored by the Massachusetts United Way and presented a plaque for her outstanding support as a corporate chairperson.
