American University's New President Inaugurated

20080208-kerwin.jpgALTHOUGH NEIL KERWIN has been American University's interim president since then-President Benjamin Ladner was ousted in 2005 after a scandal over his lavish spending habits, today marks the formal installation of the school's former provost as president.

There'll be a campus-wide reception at the Mary Graydon Center following the 11 a.m. inaugural ceremony at Bender Arena. Tonight, expect the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue and Whitehaven Street NW to be jam-packed as guests head to the Italian Embassy for the inaugural ball, which starts at 7:30 p.m.
