February 16th-20th is Kenyon’s First Annual Unsung Heroes Week, a community project designed to appreciate the efforts of Maintenance, AVI and Campus Safety. We are proud to recognize the efforts of these employees as valuable members of the Kenyon community. The long term goal of this project is the establishment of a small scholarship fund for a child or grandchild of a Kenyon AVI, Maintenance or Campus Safety worker living in Knox County and pursuing higher education at a college or university. Please share this project with your Kenyon College friends, family members, alumni, or anyone else who you feel would be interested. Let’s give these workers the recognition they deserve!

“What’s your favorite part about working at Kenyon?”
Dallas: “Probably my partner (Susan), honestly. We just get along. We have our conversation and everything.”
Susan: “Having a partner like Dallas.”
Both: “Just the different kind of stuff you get to do. You just don’t know what could hit you. It’s not the same, monotonous.”
