Save the Date!

Our combined Homecoming and Family Weekend – One Big Whitworth Weekend (OBWW) – is officially six months away, and we’re excited to welcome you back to campus. Whether you’re joining us for the first time or returning for a tradition you love, registration is now open. Each fall, OBWW brings together students, alumni, families and friends for a weekend filled with connection, celebration and Whitworth spirit. Be sure to save the dates: Friday, Oct. 16–Sunday, Oct. 18, 2026.

For parents and families of incoming students, this may be your first experience with OBWW. Having this special weekend on the horizon can make the transition of dropping off your first-year student a little easier. In just six weeks, you’ll be back on campus seeing Whitworth through your student’s eyes.

Alumni celebrating milestone reunions this year (1966, ’76, ’86, ’96, 2006 and ’16) are invited to our all‑class reunion at 1898 Public House on Saturday evening after the homecoming game. During this gathering, we’ll also honor our 2026 Whitworth Alumni Award recipients. If you have questions or would like to help plan something meaningful for your class, reach out at alumni@whitworth.edu.

The countdown is officially underway. Visit our event webpage to explore registration package options, including a side‑by‑side comparison chart designed to fit a range of interests and budgets: event webpage
