The Greenslade Special Collections and Archives collection of old Collegians offers many nostalgic delights, and “From the Collegian Archives” seeks to bring some of our print edition mothership‘s finer moments back into the light. This week, we are looking at the swinging ’70s (I originally went in to find the end of the Vietnam War, but the Collegian did not publish about it).
Spot anyone you recognize? I wasn’t aware that Paul McCartney taught at Kenyon in the ’70s! Kenyon Doppelgängers here we come!
I have to say that the Snow Sculptures circa 2012 are much better than the Snow Sculptures of 1974. Honestly, I’m not impressed, K.C. and the Sunshine Band-era Kenyon. (Fun Fact: the K.C. does not stand for Kenyon College.)
Re: Senior Marks Passing of Social Event: I feel a little whiny complaining about the new system. If this is how they felt about switching to computers in general, I can’t imagine what they would do with our latest iteration. It probably would have just been anarchy.
Sailing … at Kenyon? I’m trying as hard as I can to come up with an alliterative sailing headline. Best so far: “Kenyon Sailers All Sink, No Swim.” Glad to see our editors are still bitter about losses to Denison.
