Bryn Mawr College

Bryn Mawr College was founded in 1885 to extend to women the opportunity for rigorous academic training, including the study of Greek, mathematics, and philosophy, that was then available only to men. Bryn Mawr thus modeled its curriculum and its standards on those of Oxford, Yale, and Princeton. But in another sense it was founded to be quite unlike those older institutions. Being small, it could offer a kind of attention to the needs and concerns of its students that large universities could not. Being new and somewhat arrogant, it could challenge educational convention whenever that seemed important. Those traditions continue, and Bryn Mawr remains today a demanding and caring place where both ideas and individuals matter very much.
