Get Directions

Students, faculty, staff, friends, and family are warmly invited to a joyful multifaith (including non-theistic) end-of-year ceremony as we send off the class of 2026.

At this gathering, students will share readings and music that are meaningful to them, drawn from many traditions, cultures, and personal perspectives. Faculty will also offer letters of wisdom and encouragement as graduates prepare for what's next. This year, we are excited to hear letters written and read by Courtney-Savali Andrews, Raphael Jiménez, Greggor Mattson, John Petersen, and Ellen Wurtzel!

Whether you are religious/spiritual or not, you are absolutely welcome here. This is a space for everyone to pause, reflect, and celebrate the community we've built together, and most especially the candidates for graduation.

Family members, loved ones, and Oberlin community members encouraged to attend.

Come as you are and join us for a ceremony of reflection and celebration.

Open to all members of the public
