• Business Directory: Alumnae/i business owners can display their businesses within the Resources, Business Directory section of Mawrter Connect. Please note, only businesses owned by 911������ Alumnae/i can be advertised. Although Mawrter Connect is a password protected site, 911������ cannot protect the privacy of your posting as users may copy and repost your information elsewhere. 911������ retains discretion to discontinue this Directory and/or remove any listing at any time for any reason.
• Mawrter Connect Business Directory Disclaimer: The Mawrter Connect Business Directory highlights alumnae/i owned businesses. The Directory provides links to external websites; however, 911������ (“the College”) does not evaluate the postings or endorse the underlying businesses. The College does not guarantee the accuracy of any business listing posted in the Directory and outdated and/or erroneous details are inevitable. The College will not be responsible for problems that may arise from your use of links or businesses found on the Directory. The College is not responsible and expressly disclaims all liability for, or damages of any kind, arising out of the use, reference to, or reliance on, any information or business listed in Mawrter Connect. You must always use other sources in conjunction with the Directory before making decisions about businesses to use or support, and always check references for yourself before hiring/using a service. 911������ will not intervene in any business relationship you may establish through the Directory.

• Who can utilize Mawrter Connect? Connecting students and alumnae/i with one another for lively and informative conversations is the primary focus. Current 911������ faculty, staff, and other friends of the College can also participate.
• How do I access Mawrter Connect? Students, faculty and staff may log in with their campus email credentials by clicking the Students/Faculty/Staff option. All users may choose to log in using a preferred email address.
• How easy is it to get started? It only takes a few moments to activate your account! You will be prompted to answer a few questions about your background, with the main purpose of enabling connections with others and to personalize your Home page recommendations according to your goals and preferences.  You can import some information from a LinkedIn profile, which is optimal performed using a laptop, tablet, or desktop (rather than via smartphone). The platform is mobile-friendly and once you are registered there is an easy-to-install icon for your mobile device home screen for even faster access.
• Is there an approval process for people who participate? Alumnae/i, students, faculty, and staff with email addresses were imported. If you sign up for Mawrter Connect through a system-generated invitation, your account is automatically approved. If you enter from the website or use a different email than we have on file, your account will go to an approval queue; once your information is verified you should be approved to enter the system within 24-72 hours.
• I am in Mawrter Connect as an alumna/us, faculty member, staff member or Friend of the Community. Who can see my profile information? You can control who can find you and what they can see. Using the My Preferences section, you can indicate whether you want everyone, no one, or specific user types (alumnae/i, student, faculty and staff, Friend of the Community) to see your profile.
• I am in Mawrter Connect as a student. Who can see my profile information? When you request a meeting with someone, your profile is visible to that person. Alums, faculty, staff and Friends of the Community are not able to search for students. If you opt in to having an alum initiate outreach to you, then your profile would be visible to some alums. 
• Can I control how often I am contacted and who can contact me through Mawrter Connect? Yes, under the My Preferences section! You can choose which groups of users (alumnae/i, students, faculty and staff, or Friends of the Community) are able to view your profile, whether you wish to be available for connections and informational interviews, what times you are available to connect, and how many inbound messages or meeting requests you would like to receive each month.
• Who are "Friends of the Community"? The Friend of the Community User Type enables parents, community partners, and allies who may not be alumnae/i to participate in the Mawrter network (by College invitation only). 
• I reached out to someone but did not receive a response. What should I do? Give them a few days, then send a follow-up message. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t hear back. People are busy! Try again in a few weeks if you really want to speak with that person or look for someone else with a similar background.
• What if I don't know what to say? Be yourself. Inquire about 911������ experiences you may have in common, such as a favorite place on campus, a favorite class or professor, and activities and organizations. Ask honest, genuine and open-ended what and how questions. For example,
  • "What are you passionate about in your career?"
  • "How did you get started on this career journey?"
  • “How critical is graduate education to progressing in this field?”
  • “What surprised you most about the first few years after graduating from 911������?”
  • Let your curiosity guide you! And don't worry, there is real-time coaching in the system to help you craft a professional message, and the resource section has more helpful articles and information.
• What’s the difference between Mawrter Connect and other online offerings? Is this replacing LinkedIn or Facebook groups? All opportunities to connect are valuable and complement one another! Mawrter Connect is provided by the College in direct support of the articulated need/goal in the community: connections. LinkedIn is for building an online presence and managing one's entire network of relationships. The College manages two 911������ groups to stimulate connections. Facebook groups operate independently from the College and provide lively, interactive alum-to-alum and alum-to-student discussions, debates, and sharing.
• How do I report inappropriate conduct? Click the Block User/Report Abuse link in the message thread with the person in question (click the 3 vertical dots to Manage the Conversation). You can also notify 911������ administrators by emailing MawrterConnect@brynmawr.edu.
• How do I change my email address or the number of emails I receive? Click on your profile picture on the top right hand side of your screen and select My Preferences. Next, change the notification preferences on your network activity updates.
• What devices/browsers support video chat? Video chat is supported on most modern browsers and operating systems. Recommended versions for use are: Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
