2026 Black and Orange Awards Celebration

The Black and Orange Awards are the most prestigious volunteer awards presented by the OSU Alumni Association, and we can’t think of a better way to kick off Homecoming and Fall Family Weekend than by celebrating the 2026 awardees. On Oct. 15 at 6 p.m., join us to hear the personal OSU stories of this year’s distinguished awardees and celebrate alongside university leaders and honorees’ family and friends to honor these outstanding members of the Beaver community. Whether they’re mentoring the next generation, reaching widespread acclaim in their careers or generously volunteering their time for causes they believe in, each is making an impact on the world. Meet the award winners and register by Oct. 1 at ForOregonState.org/BlackAndOrange.
