Bryn Mawr College

The Department of Athletics and Physical Education is committed to creating a safe and welcoming environment for all of our students, staff, and other community members. We strive to create a culture that allows for openness, respect, and safety and an environment in which diverse attitudes, beliefs, values, and behaviors feel included and can thrive.

"Equity and inclusion serve as the engine for excellence and innovation. A commitment to racial justice and to equity across all aspects of diversity propels our students, faculty, and staff to reflect upon and work to build fair, open, and welcoming institutional structures, values, and culture."  — From the College's mission statement
