May Day 2019

The title of the accompanying video tells some of the story: "May Day in the Rain."

Umbrellas were out and the campus grounds were a bit on the wet side as the Bryn Mawr College community gathered for the annual May Day celebration on Sunday, May 5.

May Day is one of Bryn Mawr's four major campuswide traditions. It's a day of revelry—held annually the Sunday after the last week of classes—that includes a parade, Maypole Dancing, and a wide variety of other happenings.
