Commencement/Reunion Weekend 2013 a Huge Success

Oberlin College hosted one of its biggest Commencement/Reunion Weekends ever, with more than 4,100 registered guests. Along with celebrating the graduation of the Class of 2013, four cluster reunions, two milestone reunions, and special reunions for Ultimate Frisbee players and a cappella group The Obertones returned to campus for the final weekend in May. Although chilly temperatures and gray skies bookended the weekend, we had gorgeous weather for Saturday and Sunday's outdoor events, including Illumination in Tappan Square.

The Oberlin Social Media Team and photographers had the campus covered throughout the weekend tweeting, live streaming, and photographing events. If you were unable to join us on campus or would like to re-live the highlights from the weekend, check out our #ObieCRW 2013 website. We also have high-resolution photographs posted on our Flickr photostream.
