“You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.”
Yes, that iconic Eagles lyric applies to you too, Bobcat! Even after you graduate, you’ll always be a Bobcat, as well as all your friends that walked across that Graduation Stage and into the real world. Celebrate the memories at the On the Green Weekend, a spring homecoming event for Ohio University alumni and their families.
Yes, your Court Street apartment will be prime real estate this weekend. That extra couch is practically an Airbnb!
Relive the Memories
The fun begins on Wed., May 17, 2017 with historical tours of OU. Reenactments of the 1967, 1977, and 1987 film fests happen throughout the week. Saturday features the Bobcat Dash 5K or alumni 3-on-3 basketball. There’s also a classic car show at the Convo and a food truck festival (Athens’ first)! Local pubs are hosting brewery education tours. Sunday tops it off with a tour of the Ridges Asylum.
If you snap some great photos (that won’t ruin anyone’s career prospects), share them on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook with the hashtag #OTG2017.
