Your ability to meet and interact with guys is directly proportional to how much effort you put into doing so. If you participate in Bi-Co activities, take classes at Haverford/Swat/Penn, etc. then you can meet all kinds of people. Parties can be another way to meet guys, but eh… depends on if that’s your kind of scene. There are all kinds of guys at Haverford, just as there are all kinds of women at Bryn Mawr. There are plenty of awkward, nerdy people, plenty of “normal” people, and everyone in between.

I’m not very into meeting guys, personally; that’s not what I came here for. I came here for the community and the academics, and that’s been more than enough for me so far (I am a sophomore). I can understand if you really want to be able to find the kind of men you like… so I guess the best answer I can give you is that you probably can if you try.

In general, Bryn Mawr (and I think Haverford) is very much liberal-leaning. There are plenty of people in the middle, and some people on the right… but I don’t think conservative or Republican students feel as able to speak up as those in the more vocal liberal, Democratic majority. Not too many people are like, radically extreme or anything, though. People will defend their views, but they are almost always respectful of people who feel differently than they do.
