Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees is the governing body of Oberlin College and Conservatory. It manages the welfare of the institution and entrusts day-to-day operations to the president. Oberlin’s board has 29-37 members and completes its work through an executive committee and various subcommittees.

The board consists of 20-28 board-elected members and six alumni-elected members. Trustees serve four-year terms.

There are also three class trustees elected by recent graduating classes to serve three-year terms. The final member of the board is the president of Oberlin College and Conservatory, who serves ex officio.
