Co-Editor-In-C- hief

Of all the Kenyon ghost stories besides those of the Old Kenyon fire of 1949, the most vibrant is the story of the death of Stewart Lathrop Pierson in 1905, the first hazing fatality in America. The night had arrived for Pierson to be initiated into the Delta Kappa Epsilon's (DKE). His father, a graduate of Kenyon College, class of 1 880 and a DKE, had come up from Cincinnati the night before to take part in his son's initiation. At 9 p.m., he saw his son for the last time alive as young Sluarl Lathrop Pierson Pierson left for the C. A. & C. railroad discovered the badly mangled remains I bridge.

Undocumented Ghost Stories ; : , Believe it or Don 't! Ay ! Caples has classically reported its own ghost. Stories of cold hands pressed against people's faces as they sleep, as well as sitting down on their bed have occurred. Locked doors opening unexpectedly, lights turning on and off, and items being rearranged on countertops.

Many have said that the Old Kenyon ghosts are actually nine women who died in the fire while visiting their boyfriends. The administration refused to recognize that women If: :fl' w i had been in the then all-ma- le college dorm, and they were not remembered in the service. i It is said that at night, a group of women may be heard singing around Old Kenyon.

Rumor has it that a woman died of leukemia the year before she would have come to Kenyon, and now the room she would have lived in, 108 Manning, has its furniture periodically rearranged by the persistent ghost. Other small things: pens, computerdisks, books, throughout the year supposedly disappear as well, only to be found on the top shelf.

Last year, there was a reported "neat freak ghost" residing in the first floor of Old Kenyon, who would, eerily straighten out towels to befuddle the residents of the room.

The Schaffer Dance Studio, which used to be the Kenyon pool has its own swimmer ghost. Late at night, people practicing dance have heard the sounds of splashing water, and sometimes find wet footprints on the floor ending in walls.
