It was interesting to think about Bill Jones's performance in the context of a women's college. I feel that, before coming to Bryn Mawr, I would definitely not have been comfortable even watching a performance such as that one, let alone participating in one, naked on-stage.

However, after three year's of Bryn Mawr's traditional streaking at most major college events, I would not mind attending a play that had a nude scene like Bill's in it. I'm still not sure if I would participate by going on-stage, but perhaps if it was in the community setting where I am now (an all-women's one), I might consider it. It's hard to say.

But, my point is, attending a women's college has definitely changed the way I view a lot of things, especially when it comes to being more open and accepting about new things (and nakedness). I am not sure how this openness will translate into the real world, once I return (post-graduation next year), but I am hopeful that at least some of that comfort with the new and strange will carry on with me beyond the Bryn Mawr Bubble.
