The activities listserve is used to send mass e-mails to subscribing students and staff about weekly events/activities taking place at Bryn Mawr College. Send information about an event to activities@brynmawr.edu. Please read the Mass Mailing Policy prior to sending a mesage to the listserve.
Messages sent to the listserve are reviewed by the Student Activities Director before they are sent to list subscribers. Messages are reviewed once a day and are sent to list subscribes at 4:30pm. Messages received after this time will be sent out the next day. Messages are not sent out on weekends. Messages sent to the listserve on Saturday or Sunday will be sent out on Monday. Messages that are not applicable to the listserve, advertise events that already occurred or are not from a member of the College community will be deleted.

- For weekly open-meetings which will discuss a special issue or will effect a significant number of students (i.e. parking open forum, Plenary)
- Emergencies which will effect a significant number of students
Mass e-mails will not be sent for the following:
- Specific target groups (i.e. specific departments/majors, members of a specific organization)
