Faculty Fellows
Faculty are the core of the Oberlin experience. They teach, they guide student research, they have their class over for dinner. The OCCASR faculty fellows are just a small sample of Oberlin's more than 300 amazing teachers, but each brings plenty to the Oberlin experience both in and out of the classroom.
Here, our faculty - and two staff with intimate knowledge of the student experience - talk about what makes Oberlin students special, where the college is headed, and why your support - in all forms and at all levels - is always important.
