Abstract

The University of Mississippi officially installed a new chancellor on April 9, 2010. Dr. Daniel W. Jones was formally sworn in as chancellor during a 10 a.m. investiture ceremony in the Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts. The inauguration's theme, selected by Chancellor Jones and reflecting an area of deep commitment for him as an educator and physician, was "Transformation Through Service." Service has long been a part of The University of Mississippi's core mission, and students, faculty and staff focused their attention and efforts even more closely on these activities during the months leading up to the actual investiture. The investiture of a university chancellor formally installs the institution's highest-ranking officer, confers upon him the ceremonial accoutrements of office, and gives the larger academic and civic communities an opportunity to convene and celebrate their shared values.
