Posh's Tip for employment

Have you ever wonder what kind of jobs I can get while I am in College well the answer is simple. Find out what your best asset is and stick to that. Most recommend that you pick a job that goes with your field and most of the time it works but, not everyone is that lucky to get employment in the field they are going to school for.  There are plenty of part-time positions out there that may work around you school schedule and, you will have an easier time keeping your head above water.

 What is also a good idea is ask your college advisors what do they have to offer as employment because most all women colleges offer a Federal work-study program or some other form of employment that helps students gain some work experience. In addition there are times that some of the local community colleges offer job fairs so that students and those unemployed may find employment from the local companies. Furthermore it is another good idea is to get a job at a place that you love to eat, shop, get your hair done or, whatever, there are some places that very few think of to find employment.

 Many female students who have done receptionist work have gotten employment from local hair salons and beauty parlors starting out making $9 an hour and before the graduated or transferred to another college they received about $12 to $13 an hour doing the same job but, with added task on hand.  You'll never know what you get until you go out and look for it. That's all for now but, don't worry I'll be back with some more employment tips. Posh out.

Cashmere's Tip

Have you ever wonder what you should wear when visiting a potential college campus? Well there are some things that you will need to know about first impressions. Most of the admission staff are going to judge you from you outward appearance because they want to see how will you present their school and their school's reputation.  Here are some examples on which you should wear after you planned a visit at the college's campus and which outfit might impress them the most. In addition the nicer you look the more likely you'll able to pass through the student orientation which we will talk about in a different time.

Furthermore there are some outfits that you should not follow because some celebrity trends do not fit to the atmosphere of all college campuses. I will provide you some examples of celebrity do's and don'ts.

 Wendy Williams

  If you are trying to get into an all girl's school for clowns and street performing then look no further here is a perfect outfit to wear to visit the campus. If you are trying to get into an ivy league college then you may want to think of something else.


 This outfit of Wendy's provides a excellent example of what not to wear when trying to impress the admissions staff of the college that you wish to attend. Luckily Wendy Williams is beyond the college age and this little lady can wear anything she choose because she has no one major to impress except her audience and television viewers.

 Now I will provide an example of a perfect outfit to wear when trying to get into a ivy league college or any college that you want to represent the best way possible.

This outfit of Wendy's will get your foot into the door quicker than of the other outfit that Mrs. Williams was wearing. If she was 20 years younger Wendy would be accepted to all the best known women colleges in the United States and the known world.

 So lets see some more examples of do's and don't s of the college fashion.

Rihanna

She is another good example of a do and a don't what to wear when you are trying to get into the college of your dreams. Some of the things that she wear may look cute but, do you really think the admissions staff would want you representing their school like that?  I think the answer is no because most private colleges especially colleges that are for women only would like someone who looks professional and put together.  In addition you may also have to put into factor that some colleges provide on-campus jobs to students who meet the GPA requirements to do various tasks that the faculty may offer in order to supplement the student's college income, in most cases students who have on-campus jobs usually work in an office setting so you really wouldn't want to present yourself as someone that they picked up off the streets. 

Furthermore you also have to realize that there will be other students from all parts of the world coming for a visit to the campus, if you dress inappropriate this can hurt the college's reputation that they have worked hard to maintain.  As the case for rihanna she does not need to quit her day job anytime soon because the she represents herself no private college would take her unless they want to level up their status and have an increase of students attend their campus.  

Now let's look at a celebirty that gives a good example on what to wear before having a student orientation.

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift is coming into her own when it comes to fashion and Taylor is the best example of what to wear when visiting a college campus. Taylor looks nice and if she was enter into college she would have no trouble passing through the student orientation. In addition to that Taylor would have more doors opened to her while she was in college because of how she presents herself as a prospective student. 

There is no doubt in my mind that Taylor will be reject from any college because she would represent them very well and if she was to transfer to another one they would give her excellent feedback. Furthermore Taylor Swift is the ideal example of how to represent an all women's college , Taylor would be a perfect figure to look up to because of how she carry's herself. 

Well I hope that these examples and tips have given some insight on how to look when visiting a college campus. Until nest time Cashmere out!

Bryn Mawr College

A Brief History of Bryn Mawr College

When Bryn Mawr College opened its doors in 1885, it offered women a more ambitious academic program than any previously available to them in the United States. Other women's colleges existed, but Bryn Mawr was the first to offer graduate education through the Ph.D.—a signal of its founders' refusal to accept the limitations imposed on women's intellectual achievement at other institutions.

A Quaker Legacy

The founding of Bryn Mawr carried out the will of Joseph W. Taylor, a physician who wanted to establish a college "for the advanced education of females." Taylor originally envisioned an institution that would inculcate in its students the beliefs of the Society of Friends (popularly known as Quakers), but by 1893 his trustees had broadened the College's mission by deciding that Bryn Mawr would be non-denominational. Bryn Mawr's first administrators had determined that excellence in scholarship was more important than religious faith in appointing the faculty, although the College remained committed to Quaker values such as freedom of conscience.
The college's mission was to offer women rigorous intellectual training and the chance to do to original research, a European-style program that was then available only at a few elite institutions for men. That was a formidable challenge, especially in light of the resistance of society at large, at the end of the 19th century, to the notion that women could be the intellectual peers of men.

M. Carey Thomas' Academic Ideal

Fortunately, at its inception, the college was adopted as a moral cause and a life's work by a woman of immense tenacity, M. Carey Thomas. Thomas, Bryn Mawr's first dean and second president, had been so intent upon undertaking advanced study that when American universities denied her the opportunity to enter a Ph.D. program on an equal footing with male students, she went to Europe to pursue her degree.

When Thomas learned of the plans to establish a college for women just outside Philadelphia, she brought to the project the same determination she had applied to her own quest for higher education. Thomas' ambition—for herself and for all women of intellect and imagination—was the engine that drove Bryn Mawr to achievement after achievement.

The College established undergraduate and graduate programs that were widely viewed as models of academic excellence in both the humanities and the sciences, programs that elevated standards for higher education nationwide. Under the leadership of Thomas and James E. Rhoads, who served the College as president from 1885 to 1894, Bryn Mawr repeatedly broke new ground. It was, for example, the first institution in the United States to offer fellowships for graduate study to women; its self-government association, the first in the country at its founding in 1892, was unique in the United States in granting to students the right not only to enforce but to make all of the rules governing their conduct; its faculty, alumnae and students engaged in research that expanded human knowledge.

Engaging the World

In 1912, the bequest of an alumna founded the Graduate Department of Social Economy and Social Research, which made Bryn Mawr the first institution in the country to offer a Ph.D. in social work. In 1970, the department became the Graduate School of Social Work and Social Research . In 1921, Bryn Mawr intensified its engagement with the world around it by opening its Summer School for Women Workers in Industry, which offered scholarships for broad-based programs in political economy, science and literature to factory workers until 1938.

A Tradition of Freedom

From 1942 to 1970 Katharine Elizabeth McBride presided over the College in a time of change and growth. During McBride's tenure, the College twice faced challenges to its Quaker heritage of free inquiry and freedom of conscience. During the McCarthy era, Congress required students applying for loans to sign a loyalty oath to the United States and an affidavit regarding membership in the Communist party. Later, at the height of student protest against the Vietnam War, institutions of higher education were required to report student protesters as a condition of eligibility for government scholarship support.
On both occasions, Bryn Mawr emerged as a leader among colleges and universities in protecting its students' rights. It was the first college to decline aid under the McCarthy-era legislation and the only institution in Pennsylvania to decline aid rather than take on the role of informer during the Vietnam War. Bryn Mawr faculty and alumnae raised funds to replace much of the lost aid, and a court eventually found the Vietnam-era law unconstitutional and ordered restitution of the scholarship funds.

Cooperation and Growth

During the 1960s, Bryn Mawr strengthened its ties to Haverford, Swarthmore and Penn when it instituted mutual cross-registration for all undergraduate courses. In 1969, it augmented its special relationship with Haverford by establishing a residential exchange program that opened certain dormitories at each college to students of the other college.

During the presidency of Harris L. Wofford, from 1970 to 1978, Bryn Mawr intensified its already-strong commitment to international scholarship. Wofford worked hard to involve alumnae overseas in recruiting students and raising money for their support and for the support of Bryn Mawr's extensive overseas programs. Wofford, who later became a U.S. senator, also initiated closer oversight of the College's financial investments and their ramifications in the world.

Mary Patterson McPherson led the College from 1978 to 1997, a period of tremendous growth in number and diversity of students - now over 1,200 undergraduates, nearly a quarter of whom are women of color.

During McPherson's tenure, Bryn Mawr undertook a thorough re-examination of the women-only status of its undergraduate college and concluded that providing the benefits of single-sex education for women - in cultivating leadership, self-confidence and academic excellence - remained essential to the College's mission. McPherson, a philosopher, now directs the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation's program for liberal arts colleges.

Nancy J. Vickers, Bryn Mawr's president from 1997 to 2008, began her tenure by leading the College community to a clear understanding of its priorities and the challenges it faces in the next century through the adoption of the Plan for a New Century. When she retired in June 2008, she left the College with a 40 percent increase in undergraduate applications, a completed fund-raising campaign that tripled the goal of the previous campaign and an endowment that has nearly doubled since she took office.

Beyond attaining a sound financial footing for the college, Vickers oversaw dramatic changes in the academic program, in outreach and in infrastructure, while remaining true to the College's historic mission. Those changes include refining undergraduate-recruiting messages and practices, initiating some interdisciplinary programs and faculty positions, improving student life, embracing cross-cultural communication, upgrading the campus' use of technology, renovating many buildings and achieving worldwide visibility through the Katharine Houghton Hepburn Center.

Embracing the Global Century

Jane Dammen McAuliffe was inaugurated as the eighth president of Bryn Mawr on Oct. 4, 2008. An internationally renowned scholar of Islamic studies, McAuliffe came to Bryn Mawr from Georgetown University, where she served as Dean of Arts and Sciences. McAuliffe's scholarly work has been supplemented by participation in numerous efforts to foster dialogue and understanding among members of different faith traditions, including service on the Vatican's Commission for Religious Relations with Muslims.

President McAuliffe has embarked on an intensive schedule of meetings and discussions with members of the Bryn Mawr community, both on campus and around the world, immersing herself in the history and culture of the College during her first year as its leader. In her inaugural address, McAuliffe noted that "access to excellence was the reason Bryn Mawr was born. From its earliest days, this College has sought to offer the most rigorous education to those who were otherwise excluded from the best undergraduate colleges and the most challenging graduate programs. With each successive generation, the College has expanded this originating mandate as it seeks to enroll the most qualified women from all parts of this country and throughout the world." The sense of agency students acquire at Bryn Mawr, she says, make the institution "a force for social justice and social change."

McAuliffe then enumerated four “points of challenge and opportunity” facing the College in the coming years: enhancing students’ educational experience, fostering a strong and inclusive community, strengthening the Bi- and Tri-College relationships with Haverford and Swarthmore Colleges, and “embracing the adventure of global education.”

Continuing Education: Undergraduate Courses

Qualified women and men from the community may take courses in the Undergraduate College, space and resources permitting. Continuing-education students

• may take up to two undergraduate courses per semester

Brenau University| The Women's College

Founded as a private institution for the education of women, Brenau began life in 1878 as Georgia Baptist Female Seminary. W.C. Wilkes, the institution's first administrator, is credited with building many of the historic buildings that still stand today.  In 1900 H. J. Pearce purchased the institution and renamed it Brenau, a linguistic blend formed from the German word brennen, "to burn", and the Latin aurum, "gold". Its motto is "As Gold Refined by Fire".

Brenau College remained privately owned until 1911 when a board of trustees assumed stewardship of the college, as remains the case today. In 1928, Brenau created a female, residential, college-preparatory school serving grades 9 through 12, and in the late 1960s, Brenau began offering evening and weekend classes to both men and women through what was known as The Evening And Weekend College.

Brenau College became Brenau University in 1992 by a vote of the Board of Trustees, a name change that reflected the comprehensive programs of study, the diverse student body, new and stricter employment criteria for professors, and the scope of available graduate programs.

In 2002, Brenau's Online College was formed using internet technology to reach students who because of professional or personal responsibilities are unable to attend classes on campus.

Today, Brenau's vibrant structure continues to attract students from a large number of venues:
