As Kenyon enters its third century, it has undertaken a number of initiatives to reinforce and advance its mission to build strong foundations for lives of purpose and consequence.
Kenyon's most recent strategic plan includes changes over the next decade to optimize our size, the academic calendar and institutional partnerships.
As college leaders assess priorities and possibilities for the next comprehensive campaign, expanding experiential learning while growing the endowment for scholarships will be among the considerations. Donors to the Third Century Founders endowment effort are building that foundation.
The six-year public campaign concluded June 30, 2024 as the most successful in Kenyon College history, with philanthropy that transformed campus and the educational experiences of current and future students. A total of 22,886 people gave a combined $532 million to grow scholarships and fund the West Quad, south campus residence halls and more.
