Each spring, µÛÍõ»áËù Lancaster celebrates graduates from the previous summer and fall and spring semester during the annual Graduation Recognition Ceremony. This ceremony is a separate event from the formal Spring Commencement Ceremonies held on the Athens campus.

The Graduation Recognition Ceremony features an address from a featured speaker, includes reflections from graduating students, and recognizes students who are named as outstanding graduates by faculty members. The event is open to family and friends of Lancaster Campus graduates.

Photography

Your guests may take photos during the ceremony, but we ask that they remain seated during the ceremony so as not to disturb other guests who are trying to see their graduate.

A selfie station will be available to get a special shot with honored graduates.

There will be many opportunities to capture a popular family photo or selfie around the OHIO Lancaster campus. Be sure to hashtag #OHIOgrad2025 to share your memories!
