We read two to three books each semester that have been adapted into a film or show, which we will then watch. The club promotes a safe and open environment to welcome all students. Contact us at bookwatch-stuorg@kenyon.edu.

Kenyon BookWorms reads books from romance novels to non-fiction. Members of the club vote on the books each month. Each meeting will start with a discussion about the book of the month and then move on to general book discussion. Contact us at kbookworms-stuorg@kenyon.edu.
