John Kilyk '80 pays it forward

John Kilyk '80, an intellectual-property attorney with Leydig, Voit, and Mayer in Chicago, visited the College on November 17, 2005. Kilyk, who majored in chemistry at Kenyon, discussed with several students how majors in the sciences can lead to legal careers. Kilyk's talk paid homage to a visit during his college days by Thomas Hoffman '62, whom Kilyk credits with inspiring him to launch his own legal career. Kilyk is pictured here with Sarah Spiegler '06, daughter of Jacob '74 and Diane Spiegler '76.

Pathways of Excellence

Kenyon gives you pathways to travel. You begin on Middle Path , sensing the history it embodies, savoring its spirit of community. Middle Path gives rise to so many other pathways --paths of intellectual discovery, career paths, personal journeys, shared adventures.

You can sustain these pathways by supporting the Kenyon Fund. Your gift will ensure that all Kenyon students, now and in the future, enjoy their own pathways of excellence.

The Kenyon Fund: A Vital Pathway

Like all of Kenyon's pathways, the Kenyon Fund makes its way into every corner of campus.

Alumni who give to the Kenyon Fund support academic life, scholarships, student activities, faculty and academic programs--even the gravel on Middle Path. All gifts, regardless of size, have an impact. Every contribution yields benefits.

Help us sustain the strength of a Kenyon education by giving to the Kenyon Fund today. Visit http://gift.kenyon.edu to make a gift online.
