In the days leading up to the 182nd Oberlin College and Conservatory Commencement exercises, graduating seniors, their families and friends, alumni, and townspeople gathered to reminisce about times past, celebrate the achievements of the Class of 2015, and discuss the future of our institution and our world.

Photographers Yevgen Gulenko, Anna Norris, Walter Novak, Jennifer Manna, Tony Morrison, Dale Preston, Tanya Rosen-Jones, Scott Shaw, and Yingran Zhang snapped photos at a number of events to help this Commencement/Reunion Weekend live on for years to come.

This gallery is a sampling of photographs from events that took place Saturday, May 23. A full album of photos from this day can be seen on Flickr. A full collection of Commencement/Reunion Weekend photos is available at this link.
