School Spirit

School spirit is always high during Traditions. During the rest of the year, school spirit is a lot more subtle. More apparent on a daily basis is “department spirit,” demonstrated by department T-shirts and most students' excitement when talking about their major. Athletes are also a spirited bunch, though sports are not a basis for school spirit like at larger universities. The honor code also generates a lot of pride, as it is one of the strongest in the U.S. Overall, there is a lot of pride about Bryn Mawr's academic strengths, and though the grumbling about the work we have sometimes muffles the evidence, Mawrters wouldn't have it any other way.
