One Minute at Kenyon

Got a minute? We’ve collected the must-see stops to help you envision yourself in Gambier, Ohio, the place Kenyon calls home.

Middle Path

Middle Path is Kenyon’s main drag and beating heart. It’s a footpath. It’s a village green. It’s a gathering place. It’s a marketplace. Tap the play button, and take a stroll.

The BFEC

It's a nature preserve. It's a living laboratory. It's a place to hike, to observe, to unwind. Spend one minute at the Brown Family Environmental Center in the fall, and make time to visit or volunteer here in every season.

Chalmers Library

Our light-filled library is a destination for studying and connecting. Come for the stunning views of campus, and stay for the quiet study spaces, tech-friendly classrooms and easy access to student support services.

Peirce Hall

Everyone comes to Peirce to connect, study and of course, eat, choosing from one of the two main dining rooms, Old Side and New Side. Dig in to local foods (45 percent of our produce is grown near campus) under stained glass windows illustrating great works of literature.

The Science Quad

Welcome to the S'Quad, where the buildings are physically connected, because we are connected: to the professors who guide us, to the research that drives us, and to one another (ask us about bologna loaf). Tap the play button, and don't forget your safety glasses.

The Athletic Center

Big, superbly equipped, architecturally striking, and filled with light — and action — the newly named Lowry Center is arguably the best small-college sports facility in the country. Everyone, from varsity athletes to occasional fitness enthusiasts, comes here to run, lift, crunch, swim, shoot, dribble, serve, swing, slam or just hang out.

Seminar

Our typical class size is 15, but there is no such thing as a typical Kenyon seminar. Whether you're deep into a discussion or digging into a project, expect thoughtful and focused interaction among your professors and peers.

The Gund Gallery

The Gund is Kenyon’s art gallery and museum, but it really functions as a genre-bending, multidisciplinary, no-holds-barred cultural hub, focusing on the visual arts but also offering films, readings, lectures and musical performances.

The Arts

Draw inspiration from light-filled studios, contemporary art exhibits, top-notch film facilities and an eclectic music scene at Kenyon, where our creations are as varied as our interests. Tap the play button, and imagine the possibilities.

Gambier, Ohio
