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.
