Kenyon’s alumni are some of the best and brightest in the world (we happen to think). In this feature, we celebrate some of our most beloved Kenyon alums with the highest honor any mortal can hope to achieve: notes/letters published on the Internet. Yes, that’s right, the Internet. In celebration of that most sinful of holidays, Halloween, we’ve decided to write a letter to one of our most excellent ghostly alums, Olof Palme.
Dear Olof Palme,
Thanks so much for ruling Sweden, history shows that that’s a toughie. Civic discontent is on the rise, huh? How’re you planning to handle it, Big Guy? My social skills coach told me that when I’m feeling intimidated I should start the conversation with a joke. Here goes:

Dear Jonathan Winters,
Okay, so technically you never graduated from Kenyon, but that won’t stop us from featuring you on our website for a second. You made it big, kid, and we love stories like that, just having you associated with Kenyon is enough to count you among our most illustrious alumni. And sure, a lot of kids might not know who you are anymore, but that doesn’t dim your light one bit.

Dear Paul Newman,
Thank you so frickin much for Seabiscuit. Ohh wait wait! …wrong alum. You’re that expensive salad dressing guy—the hot shot with the chin dimple. Honestly, I find it difficult to believe you were that handsome in college. With a jawline like that, your presence likely tipped Kenyon’s delicate balance of average looking people to slightly above average looking people.* In this regard, you and I are quite alike. I’d like to think you were a N.A.R.P. like me.

Dear Nick Bakay,
First of all, I’m sorry that you aren’t brought up in conversation as much of some of the other alums–John Green and Paul Newman ain’t got nothin’ on you, bud. Many of my peers would be surprised to learn the the dude who voiced Salem on Sabrina, the Teenage Witch went here.
