Ohio Dominican University celebrated its 120th Commencement on Saturday, May 16th, honoring the Class of 2026. The ceremony featured a commencement address by alumna, historic preservationist, and community leader Nancy Recchie ’73, alongside inspiring remarks from undergraduate speaker Mark Hettinger and graduate speaker Shyla Pemberton. The celebrations began earlier with a Baccalaureate Mass, bringing together more than 150 graduates, families, faculty, and friends to reflect on the class's achievements.

As we approach the end of Fiscal Year 2026 on June 30, I want to sincerely thank everyone who has generously contributed since July 1, 2025.

If you haven’t yet made a gift, or if you wish to contribute again, I invite you to join the ODU community in supporting our students. Every gift, regardless of size, directly impacts their educational journey and helps us uphold ODU's mission of keeping higher education accessible.

You may make a secure on-line payment below.
