Kenyon College

Gambier

Kenyon College, among the nation’s finest liberal-arts institutions, takes pride in exceptionally strong programs in English (Kenyon is the home of the internationally known Kenyon Review), the sciences, and drama. Student-faculty interaction, both in and out of the classroom, and community involvement are hallmarks of the Kenyon experience. Kenyon students, who come from all 50 states and many countries, enjoy an active extracurricular life, with more than 145 student organizations. Kenyon teams compete in 11 sports each, for men and women, and the swimming and diving teams are renowned for their record-breaking number of national championships. The Kenyon campus is noted for its beauty and the quality of its facilities, including a recently-built music building, $32-million science center, $70-million fitness/recreation/athletic center, and new art history studio art buildings under construction.\r\nKenyon College is a close-knit community of talented students and outstanding teachers. Kenyon’s reputation rests on a tradition of academic rigor and creative achievement, but its essence lies in the way personal contact shapes daily experience on its historic and scenic campus. Students know professors as teachers, advisers, collaborators, and friends, while professors know students as individuals—their strengths, aspirations, and potential for success.\r\n
