The Kenyon Reveille was first published in 1855 and as such holds the distinction of being the oldest continuing student publication at the College. Beginning life as more of a literary magazine, it eventually transformed into the College yearbook around the turn of the 20th Century.
With a run of over 150 years, there are several years when a Reveille was not produced for any number of reasons including war and lack of student interest. The missing years are as follows: 1896-1900, 1919, 1944-1946, 1954, 2004-2005, 2008-2009, and 2015-2021.
The Reveille was revived with a new edition in 2022.
