When you first get
to campus, try lots
of new things. Go to an SGA meeting, attend the college news or Bi-Co info session, try out a
few different clubs. They might not all stick, but what does might surprise you. So much of learning at Bryn Mawr
happens outside
of the classroom with your peers,
and the people you meet will make a lasting impact.

Keep a journal.
You think you’ll remember
everything in
the moment, but some events will become hazy even only a few years after graduation.

1) Believe in yourself! You can do anything! 2) A positive attitude is infectious. 3) Find something you are
passionate about, then go after it. Do what makes you happy. 4) The path is sometimes long, rocky, and
winding, but you’ll meet really wonderful people
and experience really amazing things along the way.
5) When you fall, get up again! 6) When in doubt, count on a bar of chocolate and a bowl of ice cream. 7) When you wake up every morning, ask yourself, “How am
I going to make the world a better place today?”

Trust yourself. You are a very smart woman—that is why
you are at Bryn Mawr College. Use your intelligence to learn all you can from professors, classmates, and those around you. I say this as a college professor and an alum.

A women’s college is a truly
magical place. Not only will
you discover the diversity of others, but you will find you
are stronger and more capable
than you imagine. Embrace the community you find yourself in, and you will have sisters for life.
