Inauguration Materials
Only 15 individuals have served as President of Fontbonne in its first 100 years. Inaugurating new presidents and investing them with responsibilities and authority is always a special time at Fontbonne. This collection showcases various items related to the festivities, including announcements, videos, and even marked-up podium copies of speeches. Each inaugural event reflects the traditions of Fontbonne, contemporary culture, and the personality of the new president.
