College News Articles
Teas, an old tradition at Bryn Mawr... from this College News article it's easy to see why we continue to have them- everybody likes food.

The author of this College News article seems to think some Bryn Mawr students suffered a case of mistaken identity when they helped stack chairs at a meeting.
I think perhaps the Mawrters were simply showing that they could do just the same work as any boys.
Today the "Bryn Mawr chop" is ubiquitous on campus- for some reason attending Bryn Mawr encourages many students to cut their hair short. Its origins may possibly be found in 1919, if this comic is anything to go by.
