Bryn Mawr College

Pensby Center (formerly the Office of Intercultural Affairs)

The Pensby Center's overall goals are to affirm identity, build community and cultivate leadership through active and meaningful engagement and partnerships with students, staff, faculty and alumnae/i. We are located on Cambrian Row at 229 N. Roberts Rd.

Our new name indicates an expansion of our programming. We are excited about the ways in which our work will grow, while continuing our commitment to the mission of the former OIA/MCC.
