At Kenyon you will find the following: a very lovely change of season, some nice and bright people, but more likely privileged though unmotivated people. The thing is, I could never get comfortable with Kenyon because it seemed like a pretend happy place. It dawned on me that that's what most of them were used to though, so who notices? 80% caucasian communities, "free" exercise equipment and classes, pizza, trips to the mall (free is so misleading), much better than average dining service. The cafeteria was better than any I've ever eaten in, but most students ruthlessly complained, as if 5 or 6 hot choices + high quality sandwich meats + fresh salad bar + variety of cereals + breads + peanut butter + lots of desert just wasn't enough…

Primarily Kenyon was far far far too expensive for an education that I am getting somewhere else for much less. Most of these

small liberal arts schools
are about the damn same, so don't think one is necessarily better than the other.
