College of Education Commencement

 

Congratulations to the Graduating Class of 2026

Didn't get to attend the 2026 Commencement that took place June 15, 2026? That's okay!

For those who were unable to attend, we are sorry you weren't able to make it. However, you can watch a recorded live stream of the 2026 College of Education graduation ceremony at the University of Oregon.

Download and order photos! Professional photographers from GradImages were in attendance at the College of Education commencement ceremony. Photographs will be available for purchase.

I want to watch the video!

Take me to GradImages!
