Bryn Mawr IS a friendly place. Excellent anthro courses at both Bryn Mawr and Haverford. I’ve also heard wonderful things about french and comparative literature majors. I know Political Science is very strong at Haverford (don’t know much about it at Bryn Mawr).
Plenty of cafes, shopping around Haverford. Philly can’t be beat for museums, music scene, art galleries, cheap ethnic food joints, etc.
Getting into Philly from Bryn Mawr should cost less than $12 round trip, especially off peak.
And! You can get free tickets from student activities: https://brynmawr.wufoo.com/forms/shyk9wo0kvb6td/
