Cartwright dons mantle of president

Spirits were high in the Lenhart Grand Ballroom Jan. 30 when the University installed Dr. Carol A. Cartwright as its 10th president. Backed by tall banners displaying BGSU scenes and flanked by the Academic Charter, mace and presidential medallion, Cartwright assumed the role of leader of the institution.

Presiding over the ceremony was board of trustees Chair John Harbal, who conferred the presidency on Cartwright. “By virtue of the authority of Bowling Green State University and the board of trustees,” he said, “I commit to you the charter of the University, the University mace and the BGSU presidential medallion—all symbols of the high office which you now hold.”

Referring to her upcoming address, Harbal averred that the state of the University would be much stronger with Cartwright at the helm.
