Kenyon in Quotes
"Plundering continues despite the resulting loss of vital, contextual history."
—Associate Professor of Classics Zoe Kontes, promoting repatriation of classical antiquities.
The Kenyon College Bookstore pitched a "Blind Date with a Bookseller" by wrapping staff-selected favorites in plain brown paper with a few words of description to capture each book’s essence and seduce a reader into a good read. With about 12,000 trade books in the store, there is plenty of love to go around.
Founded in 1969 as a way of making Kenyon less elitist and more "relevant," the Gambier Experimental College drew on the talents of students, faculty and staff. Until it petered out in 1993, the school offered courses such as Consciousness Raising, Ethnic Militancy, Folk Guitar, Needlepoint, Tightrope Walking and Scottish Sword Dancing.
The teachers included Kenyon luminaries including Peter Woytuk ’80, who would become a noted sculptor (he did the crows on Ransom Hall), Harry Clor of the political science faculty and Joyce Klein and Peggy Turgeon of Friday Café fame.
Scott Thielke has accumulated twenty-two years of experience in two stints as coach of the Lords and Ladies tennis programs.

He counts more than 600 match victories with the two programs, and his teams consistently rank among the best in the country.
"The Pain," acrylic and paper on wood by Klara Auerbach '18.
The artist writes, "'The Pain' is the physical expression of my ongoing emotional progression in coping with chronic pain, a process not unlike the stages of grief. It is the process of having an unwanted spike intrude into your life and the stubborn, entirely human response of not wanting to accept its existence."
“Stephanie and I are enjoying retirement from law life, but not our back surgeries this past year, which we have called ‘The Year of the Knife.’ Thankfully, we are doing better and able to spend more time in North Carolina. As for the four sons, Jimmy and Chris are practicing law at our old firm in New Orleans, and each has given us two grandchildren. Burke S. Irwin ’19 is pursuing his doctorate in particle physics at the University of Minnesota. Cullen will graduate from Wake Forest this spring and plans to go to law school. Just what the world needs — another lawyer. But Stephanie and I do like having another lawyer in our family.”
— James B. Irwin, Covington, Louisiana
“I’ve left Jacksonville to take a position as the director of ultrasound education for the new Lakeland Regional Medical Center residency in emergency medicine. Stay well out there!”
— Andrew W. Shannon, Lakeland, Florida
