Kenyon is the oldest private college in Ohio. Each department of Kenyon is fairly strong, and a unique program is a farming independent study, which places students on nearby farms for fieldwork each week. Kenyon is located in a rural town which creates close knit relationship between faculty and students. The school is known for the oldest literary review “Kenyon's review” among the entire country. Kenyon is best-known for English and a distinguished drama program. The swimming is definitely the flagship sport of the school, Kenyon's swimming and diving teams dominate Division III competition, with the men's team having won a record 28 times in a row and the women capturing their 21st title. One of the famous alumni of Kenyon College is Paul Newman who is a famous American actor and humanitarian.
