Check to see if you have LogWatch (rpm -qa|grep logwatch) installed.  By
default LogWatch sends messages to root everyday.  Its easy to review
your logs every day by just reading an email.  If you don't have
logwatch installed, it is available via yum.

The alternative is to look in /var/log - numerous log files are fond
there.  However, some can be so large that its easy to miss an import
message.
