I liked Bryn Mawr a whole lot for a few reasons; the beautiful campus, the 360 courses, and the possibility to take classes at other colleges. It is a women college and I liked all the women I met there, the tour guide and most of the women who were looking at the college with me and the women I saw around the campus just going about their lives seemed nice as well.
Additionally, Bryn Mawr is full of gorgeous architecture and beautiful green spaces that inspired me. The campus' regal buildings made me walk a little straighter and it feels like an environment where the history as well a the current students inspires everyone to do and achieve more.
The academics at Bryn Mawr are also top notch and not just in individual disciplines but in cross disciplinary ways as well. The most obvious way that this happens is through their 360 courses. 360 courses are a set of three classes that look at a question from three different disciplines. They are three of the four classes a student takes in a given semester and the allow said student to really get into a topic and look at it from lots of different angles.
Another facet of Bryn Mawr that I liked was the possibility to take classes at Haverford, Swarthmore and Penn State. I like the academics Bryn Mawr and it has the Majors I am interested; however, it would be nice to have the opportunity to take classes with a broader range of professors and students. Additionally, since Bryn Mawr is a women college this collaboration would insure that one doesn't spend for years without seeing any men close to their own age.
Over all I liked the campus I was inspired while I was there and I believe that if I went there I would continue to be inspired and I would all be challenged academically.
