Residential Life

It’s where you hang out, banter, make friends, make music, organize mayhem, improvise parties, snack, study, and sleep. Above all, you choose. Just as you choose your life at Kenyon in big philosophical ways, you have a lot of choices about how you live literally - as in, housing.

You can live in one of the historic stone residence halls or a modern apartment with its own kitchen. You can choose a coed or single-sex floor. You can live in a “program house” (like the environmental center), or get a group together for “theme housing.” And the themes are always changing (hiking, Buddhist meditation, creative writing), because they depend on you. Your space. Your choice.
