What a memorable Commencement 2026 weekend at Houghton University. From celebrating our graduates to gathering with families, friends, faculty and loved ones, the entire weekend was a beautiful reflection of the Houghton community and all that these students have accomplished.
We’re excited to share that individual photos of every graduate crossing the Commencement platform are now available and free to download for our Highlander families and friends to enjoy and celebrate.
The Class of 2026 leaves Houghton equipped to make an impact wherever they go, carrying with them the faith, knowledge and experiences that have shaped their journey here.
Take a look back at the celebration and explore all of the Commencement weekend photos: https://houghtoncollege.dash.app/sharing/type/collection/8up0q-2026-graduation
