Kenyon Campus Community Development Fund (KCCDF)

Created by a generous donation from Richard Spinner ’63 in 2001, the purpose of the fund is to encourage casual but significant student interactions with faculty (and the wider campus community) outside of the formal classroom setting. The KCCDF has supported everything from student-faculty athletic events, symposia on shared interests, to helping fledgling clubs or film series make a start, to special interest workshops, to developing shared spaces, to cultural and community celebrations.
