OSU Commencement Addresses

The Ohio State University Archives has made available online the text of many of the university commencement addresses over the years. Some of the speakers have Moritz College of Law connections, including distinguished alumni William B. Saxbe (1975 speech), Robert M. Duncan (1979 speech), and Yvette McGee Brown (2009 speech), as well as current Moritz College of Law professor Deborah Jones Merritt (2004 speech). Browse the lists for former U.S. Presidents and other well-known figures such as one Elwood Gordon Gee (1991 and 1997 speeches).
