The Origins of Including Students in ASAO: Jane Goodale and the Bryn Mawr Mafia -  Laura Zimmer-Tamakoshi

ABSTRACT

​          Jane C. Goodale played an important role in the development of ASAO. One part of that role was encouraging her students to participate in ASAO early in their education and academic careers. The results of that encouragement are evident in the number of Bryn Mawr students (both undergraduates and graduate students) who went on to play important roles in that association themselves, the quality of their academic and intellectual careers, and the ongoing presence and importance of students at ASAO meetings. At my very first ASAO meeting—in Asilomar—I was privy to hearing the first use of "Bryn Mawr mafia." At that time, it was in reference to just how many of us (Jane and her brood of Bryn Mawr postgrads, graduate students, and undergraduates) were present at that 1978 meeting.
