'Brother' Schools???

<p>Do any of the women’s colleges have brother schools? I know that Spellman has Morehouse. But do any other women’s colleges have a true brother school (not just coed schools with which they are in a consortium)?</p>

<p>HSG</p>

<p>Well, some of them used to. Radcliffe/Harvard, for example. Barnard/Columbia, when C was all male. Bryn Mawr/Haverford to some degree but not an official relationship. The Claremonts, although I don’t know if any of them were ever all male. Not these days, though, that I know of.</p>

<p>I would argue that Bryn Mawr/Haverford has a more “official” relationship than many other nearby colleges. The freedom to major at either college (even if your home college has the same department), participate in clubs on either campus, and live on either campus is pretty fluid. While we aren’t as close as when Haverford was all male, we still keep close bonds. For example, Haverford doesn’t have art history or geology departments so their students must major at Bryn Mawr.</p>

<p>Amherst is sort of Smith’s brother school in some ways, such as program-wise.</p>

<p>Mt Holyoke/Dartmouth, before Dartmouth went coed. In the movie Animal House, the writers were from Dartmouth, and the Emily Dickinson College in the movie is based on Mt Holyoke, as Faber is based on Dartmouth</p>
