Student Speaker Application

We will be holding our traditional Candlelight Ceremony in the Archie Griffin Grand Ballroom on Saturday, May 3, 2025 at 9 pm. During the event, you will hear remarks from Ohio State administration. Two student speakers will be selected through an application and audition process to address the crowd to share and reflect on their Ohio State experience for graduates, family and friends in attendance.  

Keep an eye out during Autumn semester for the Autumn Candlelight speaker application. 

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Annie Maxwell at maxwell.515@osu.edu.
