Inspirational words and chalk drawn images on the sidewalks of Wilder Bowl greeted those passing by this past week. This chalk walk exercise resulted in several standout images featured in this week’s photo series.
In this week’s photo series we chalk the walkways of Wilder Bowl, record an audio play in Hall Annex, muster up strength to flip a large tire on Dick Bailey Field, relax with some street jazz in downtown Oberlin, escape to the tropics with OSteel, and make leaf angels in Tappan Square.
This Week in Photos is a selection of images and is not meant to represent a weekly timeline. Images highlight campus, community, people, and events related to Oberlin College.
