English Quad

Classrooms

Perched at the top of the hill, this newly expanded quad houses one of Kenyon’s great hallmarks — the English department.

A quintessential quadrangle 

The English Quad, which includes Lentz House and the more recent additions of Keithley House and Waite House, was designed as a dedicated campus space to honor Kenyon’s literary tradition. It’s appropriately situated across the street from Finn House, home to the Kenyon Review — one of the nation’s most esteemed literary magazines. 

Nestled within Keithley is the P.F. Kluge and Pamela Hollie Seminar Room, a wood-paneled classroom anchored by a large table to encourage free-flowing and thoughtful discussion. All seminar rooms and faculty office spaces in the English Quad are fully accessible.
