Kenyon in the News

“Well before I could call myself a working actress, when asked what I did, I would say I was a photographer. I still think that is a cool occupation.”

“Kenyon has a hilltop setting that makes for one of the country’s most idyllic college walks. The 10-foot-wide Middle Path, which extends the length of the campus, is shaded by massive trees that glow fiery orange in the fall. Veer off the path for Kenyon’s castle-like Victorian Gothic Ascension Hall and the Greek Revival Rosse Hall with its elegant columns.”

— Travel + Leisure Magazine ranked Kenyon #12 on a list of the “30 Most Beautiful College Campuses in the U.S.”

“We are not anti-development. We are pro-smart development.”
