<p>My roommate at Bryn Mawr played in the Wind Ensemble at Swarthmore, so it’s definitely doable. However, the commute is quite a commitment. I recall that my roommate left Bryn Mawr around 5pm and came back at 11pm, for a 90-minute rehearsal. The van schedule was just that inconvenient. I think the van is running a bit more frequently now than it used to, so maybe that’s less of a concern now.</p>
