When I was an undergraduate at Kenyon College, I was (I believe) the first webmaster for the department. I built physics1.kenyon.edu, which was a Slackware 0.98 (or thereabouts) machine running on Compaq of some sort—the boot sector configuration was a real pain on the Compaqs.

This also involved creating webpages—and a logo. What’s fun is that the department still has the logo kicking around; you can see it on the homepage.

In prepping for a talk, something that didn’t make the final edit was a revised Kenyon Physics logo. I wanted to reference back to my time at Kenyon, and the small, bitmapped version of the logo simply looked horrible in my presentation. My new version is vector-based, and therefore scales nicely to large sizes as well as down to smaller versions. It isn’t exactly like the old logo, but it is close enough that you’d have a hard time telling the difference.

So, share and enjoy: a revised Kenyon Physics logo, ten years later.

If you want the vector version, grab the PDF.

PS. As a relevant (but useless) note, there is one reference on the WWW to physics1.kenyon.edu. Now, there are two.
