Kenyon College

The benefit of a Kenyon education is that the Kenyon student is educated as a whole individual: one cultivated intellectually, socially, and emotionally into a person who will persevere within all aspects of the society. The typical Kenyon student is bright and open minded but is not as intellectually serious or as motivated as students at more prestigious schools. The best students at Kenyon take advantage of the unique opportunity to grow from close-knit contact with professors, which is an opportunity seldom provided at other institutions. Kenyon students also forfeit the benefits of city life for the kind of social interactions that happen between students as individuals. Kenyon students are nice people, who are intellectually curious, but don't expect them to produce revolutionary ideas or to promulgate academic brilliance. Go to Kenyon if you like to learn on your own and want to be in an environment that caters to that niche.
