Slipping in our Community

Being a Bryn Mawr student I was intrigued while reading this because it realted to me. It made me wonder what kind of community that I want to surround me while at Bryn Mawr and life in general. I agree with having a manadtory seminar for first years, because they might see imperfections of the Bryn Mawr community that the upperclassmen have became accustomed to. Additionally, I never stopped to think that people would be offended by christmas lights because I just see them as decorations, but its not like that for everyone. Now I have a better understanding of the importance of being aware of cultural differences in my community.
