General Campus Aesthetics

Bryn Mawr's campus is known for its beauty in all seasons. Its overall sense of serenity keeps students calm even during the most stressful times of the semester. There are not many paths, which can make the daily trek to class a little muddy sometimes, but Bryn Mawr's lack of concrete makes its sprawling fields that much more spectacular.

Yummy Food

There are two dining halls on campus and the food is stellar. There is a lot of variety of food available even though the student population is small. Only problem is that the dining halls close kind of early in the evening on the weekends.

Campus Strictness at Bryn Mawr College

Honor Codes and Campus Enforcement

One of the most defining things about Bryn Mawr's campus "strictness" is the honor code. This is most evident in the way that people feel comfortable leaving laptops in the library or keeping their doors unlocked. There isn't an extensive list of school policies or a hyped-up security force patrolling parties. It all comes down to mutual respect, among students and with the staff and public safety officials. They're there to protect you, to help you - not to turn you in for underage drinking.
