2026 Senior Class Gift

As you prepare to graduate, following in the steps of the 181 OWU classes ahead of you, we hope you take a few moments to recognize the passion and dedication that has led you to this milestone in your academic career - your senior year. The Senior Class Gift is a symbolic step in the transition from student into OWU alumni and continues a long-standing alumni tradition.

Your gift:

• Allows you to give back to OWU in a way that is important and meaningful to YOU! You can direct your gift to your favorite department, program, or other area supported by Annual Giving.

• Helps cement your legacy in the Class of 2026, as all participating seniors will be recognized in the donor section of the Commencement program

We understand that philanthropy looks different for everyone. Any amount you’d feel comfortable giving would be greatly appreciated.

Honor the Class of 2026, receive a senior philanthropy cord for commencement, and have the opportunity to share your appreciation of a member of OWU’s faculty or staff community.

Lead the charge to be invited to a special donor event closer to commencement and recognized as a Leadership level donor in the Commencement program.

Show your gratitude for your OWU experience to be invited to a special donor event closer to commencement and recognized as a Leadership level donor in the Commencement program.

We hope that you will reflect on your own OWU experience and remember the professors, friendships, and moments that made an impact on you. Your contribution to the 2026 Class Gift is just one of the many ways to celebrate your days at OWU.
