<p>Minoafrau,</p>
<p>I would suggest that your daughter send an email to the track coach this year just to express her interest and get some information. I would also suggest that she think about scheduling an overnight visit next fall with one of the girls on the track team. The coach will be able to facilitate it for you and it is a really good way to see first hand what it would be like to run track for Kenyon.
As far as a major goes, both biology and English (with an emphasis in creative writing) are demanding majors. I have found, however, that even though I have a lot of work, it is manageable. Your daughter’s schedule would be fuller than that of her non-athlete counterpart, but I think the division III level of commitment is very reasonable. We are student-athletes (student first, athlete second).
Please let me know if you have any other concerns or questions about Kenyon or college life in general</p>
