"The Very Best Thing in a Girl's Life": Early Women's Colleges in Fiction and Fact
Now open in the Rare Book Room in Canaday Library, : "The Very Best Thing in a Girl's Life": Early Women's Colleges in Fiction and Fact. This exhibition draws on BMC's large collection of serial fiction about college girls from the turn of the last century and our archival resources - scrapbooks, diaries, and letters home from some of Bryn Mawr's earliest graduates - to explore what people thought about college girls - and whether they were right! The show includes dozens of photos from Bryn Mawr in the early years - come and see if you recognize your room! The exhibition is open weekdays from 9-5.
On March 23, the Friends of the Library invite you to join us for a panel discussion, " Student Life at Bryn Mawr Since World War II: Reflections of Alumnae from the 'Forties to the 'Nineties." This event will take place at 7:30 in Carpenter 21. This event has been re-scheduled due to snow of the original date.
