This gallery is a sampling of photographs from the morning of Commencement. A full album of photos from this event can be seen on Flickr. A full collection of Commencement/Reunion Weekend photos is available at this link.
A video of Commencement 2015 in its entirety, as well as videos of addresses given by First Lady Michelle Obama, Marian Wright Edelman, and Marvin Krislov, can be seen on the Oberlin College YouTube page.
