Baking Class Plan, Abigail Serfass
Baking Class Plan, Abigail Serfass
In Words
Born from a conversation with a friend about two months into the shutdown, I began offering a virtual baking class for tweens starting at the beginning of May 2020. In the end, I hosted 13 baking classes for six girls aged 11-13 from May through August. This submission is a PDF containing recipes, "scripts," and photos.
Quaranzine, Maeve Woollen
Quaranzine, Maeve Woollen
In Words
I made this zine for a class final, where we were asked to document our quarantine. In this class, Meaning of Death, we talked a lot about what it means to die and how we think about those who have died. In the first few months of lockdown, I turned 20, I was falling in love, I was at home for the longest time since I was a teenager, and I was just getting to the other side of some old heartbreak, so I spent a lot of time looking at my growth over the last year. This is my …

Quarantunes, Chris Hudson

Myself and 3 long time music obsessed friends of mine currently spread out over Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati, and Seattle have been compiling pandemic themed collaborative playlists on Spotify. We started with one playlist and after we got to over four hours of music, we decided to start a second volume. We're currently working on volume four. The songs are included because of lyrics and/or title or because of feelings they provoke or some combination thereof. The only rule is that you can't use songs suggested by the Spotify algorithm. Playlists are publicly available after we finish them. Including links here …
Elevenses, Elizabeth Bonaudi
Elevenses, Elizabeth Bonaudi

My neighborhood began the English tradition of 11ses (elevenses). We meet in the street at 11:00, Mon-Sat to chit chat and check in on one another (socially distancing, of course). I have gotten to know my neighbors much better and have developed a friendship with them that I will miss when I return to work. We have been able to check in with elderly neighbors and make sure that they are doing ok and providing some socializing. It has been a wonderful side effect of quarantine!

Senior Classics Seminar, Adam Serfass
Senior Classics Seminar, Adam Serfass
In Words
This document testifies to the determination, dedication, and resilience of the eleven seniors who took CLAS 471: Senior Seminar in Classics during the most challenging crisis many of us are likely to face. It is the attendance sheet for the course. It shows that, in spite of it all, seven of the eleven students had perfect attendance, making it to all 28 class meetings. In the second half of the course, when we met synchronously by Zoom, ten of the eleven students attended every single session; the one outlier missed but a single class.
Regarding the document itself. I have …

Planning For Remote Learning, Paula Turner
Planning For Remote Learning, Paula Turner
In Words
Like most professors, I was thoroughly unprepared for the abrupt shift to remote learning. I attended CIP workshops, conferred with colleagues and students (particularly my invaluable student associate Max Green, senior physics major and Math/Science Skills Center lead tutor for modern physics), and scrambled hard for the past 7 weeks to make the most of what I could do to support my students' learning. I'm contributing three handwritten pages of notes I made as thinking/working documents in this process. 1) ideas, principles, and thoughts on redesigning the modern physics course I was teaching for first-year students; 2) notes on how …

Through Trials And Triumph, Jodi-Ann (Juexuan) Wang

The Kenyon journey is a collaborative, open-ended and ever-renewing tale of growth, and as a graduating senior, I wrote this "letter" to the incoming class of 2024, encouraging them to I to take ownership in writing their own Kenyon story while seeking comfort in uncomfortable situations. My senior year has been cut short, but I firmly believe that the Kenyon experience is both the time spent on campus and beyond, as the Kenyon experience is one that is everlasting. This was originally written for the Kenyon Blog, Quintessential Kenyon.
