Every year at orientation the friends of the kid who died come back and tell his story. We haven’t forgotten and we won’t forget.
Kenyon might be a party school, and that’s not going to change, but there are certain things as a result of that incident that make Kenyon safer than other places. We have a very strong good-Samaritan policy, and students are never afraid to call for medical help when it is needed. Everyone, especially students, are adamant about making sure that you stick with friends at parties. That kid died because he passed out in a field alone in winter, people just assumed he had made it home. It’s a part of our community to look after each other now.
