Old School (novel)

Old School is a novel by Tobias Wolff. It was first published on November 4, 2003, after three portions of the novel had appeared in The New Yorker as short stories.

Premise

The book is narrated by a school senior ("sixth former" in prep-school vernacular) at an (unnamed) elite boarding school in the northeastern United States in 1960–61. It is possible to infer Pennsylvania's The Hill School, which Wolff attended, at least partially inspired the setting for the novel. Further evidence of this can also be inferred from the fact that Hill's dining hall is the photograph depicted on the novel's cover. The narrator aspires to be a writer, and the school he attends is an embodiment of a certain kind of academic fantasy, where non-English teachers (teachers are "masters" here) "floated at the fringe of [the English masters'] circle, as if warming themselves at a fire", and literature is still believed to hold the key to the soul. Robert Frost, Ayn Rand, and Ernest Hemingway, with each of whom the narrator crosses paths, appear in the story, dispensing wisdom, pseudo-wisdom, vitriol. These literary appearances amount to creative satires of these authors, especially Ayn Rand.

Old School (Kenyon)

The Old School was created in 1916 in the town of Kenyon, Minnesota in Goodhue County, Minnesota located in southeastern Minnesota. Kenyon and the nearby town Wanamingo, Minnesota joined school districts in 1990, Kenyon-Wanamingo High School. In 1997 the school was shut down due to asbestos and a new school was built.

Break-ins

Since the school has been closed down, it has suffered many broken windows and break-ins. Most of the break-ins consisted of teens just wanting to see the inside. However, one break-in was big enough to make headlines. During a regular walk through of the building, done by the Kenyon Police Department, two people were found inside the school. The police also found hundreds of pounds of cut copper piping. They were charged with a felony, second degree burglary and possession of burglary tools. Bail was set at $25,000 and $10,000, respectively. After the copper break-in, boards were placed on broken windows and fencing was installed around the building to prevent future break-ins.
