A presidential investiture is one of the most important occasions in the life of a university. It is a time to gather and celebrate the unique culture of our institution. It is a time to pay tribute to a legacy of leadership and to eagerly dream about the promise of our new future. And of course, it is a time for community-wide celebration.
