How has Kenyon changed since your undergraduate years?
I came to Kenyon as a first-year student in the fall of 1980. I was a legacy kid because my uncle had graduated from Kenyon in 1961. My parish priest had also gone to seminary at Bexley Hall when it was a part of Kenyon.
Kenyon has changed in many ways since I was a student, but what is most significant to me is that it is a more diverse and more liberal place than it was in the early ’80s. The population of students of color was less than 3%, and there were few non-white faculty members and no African American faculty. The families of students that I knew were mostly moderate to conservative in their political views, and that political point of view dominated the the campus.

Guest Playlist: ConfidenceCoyote Soundtrack the Apocalypse 4 U
Eyewitness sketch of ConfidenceCoyote’s first known show at Kenyon, 4/20/2011 (with former members Taylor Swift and Aubrey “Drake” Graham).
As we are all well aware by now, the world will be coming to an end in a couple of months. That’s like, eight weekends from now. So have you thought yet about what you ought to do on this, your SEVENTH-TO-LAST WEEKEND ON EARTH!?!?!
Well fortunately, we have an answer for you. Firstly, a strikingly handsome ensemble of vocally talented gentlemen will be taking the stage of Rosse Hall tonight at 7:00 p.m. So if come Dec. 21 you’d like to perish in a burning cataclysm with faint traces of a capella pop arrangements lingering in your recent memory, perhaps this would be a good first step.
But more importantly, in honor of what will be their final concert, the Kokosingers have decided to throw an a capella and apocalypse-themed bash (or “a cap-ocalypse”) in Weaver Cottage around 10:30 tonight. And, in a characteristically sage decision, they have elected none other than Kenyon trip-pop duo ConfidenceCoyote to DJ the after-party. So if you’d prefer to perish in a burning cataclysm with faint memories of a very sweaty, very dancey, very trippy party lingering in your recent memory, drop by anytime after 10:30 p.m.
Hit the jump for a weekend-friendly preview of some jams you might hear blaring over the Weaver P.A. later on this evening.
