Fall graduates invited to Senior Week send-off
Ohio University’s December Commencement ceremony is fast approaching, and it’s time for fall graduates to look back fondly on their time spent on the bricks and look forward to their future roles as proud members of the Bobcat alumni family.
OHIO’s Student Alumni Board (SAB) and the Ohio University Alumni Association invite all fall graduating seniors to celebrate the end of one adventure and the beginning of another during Senior Week festivities scheduled for Monday, Dec. 2, through Thursday, Dec. 5, on the Athens Campus. All of the Senior Week activities are free and designed to allow graduating seniors a chance to walk down their Bobcat memory lane while preparing them for their lives beyond the bricks.
Senior Week Open House
Scheduled from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday on the fifth floor of Baker University Center, graduating seniors are invited to stop by the Senior Week Open House for:
- Refreshments
- Information on the Ohio University Alumni Association and the benefits of being an OHIO graduate
- An opportunity to update their post-graduation information and receive a free OHIO lapel pin
- An opportunity to create one more permanent and personal OHIO keepsake in the form of a special Senior Week photo
- A T-shirt trade-in – Graduating seniors can trade in any Ohio University T-shirt, which will be donated to charity, in exchange for a new OHIO alumni T-shirt
- A free pass to any dining hall on the Athens Campus, which will be given to graduating seniors who donate a canned food item, which will benefit the University’s Cats’ Cupboard food pantry
