Grove City College Inaugurates Sixth President On April 18, 1992, Dr. Jerry H. Combee was
inaugurated as the sixth president of Grove City College. Students, trustees, faculty, administration, alumni and special guests gathered for the momentous event.
Investiture Response "Mr. Hopeman, I thank you. I thank all who have planned or participated in the events that culminate in this moment.
I accept the duties of president with humility and hope . . . humility because I do not underestimate the challenge . .. hope because I know I shall not face the challenge alone. We stand today in a setting of great beauty. As the alma mater of Grove City College says: 'Mid the pines, by the streams so deeply flowing, dear to hearts with memVies glowing, stand these halls we love.'

remarkably to every challenge. In the town, everyone I have met has displayed such kindness. They love this college as their very own. The alumni have opened their hearts to me and my family. They have made us at home in their home, this college. To their alma mater, I pledge my love and honor. But there is yet more cause for hope. There are powers beyond those of men and women at work in this place. The music we Just heard is called "Fanfare for the Common Man." Aaron
Copland, dean of American music, wrote it in 1942. He composed it to celebrate American values when so many of the common people of this great land were gathered in the armed forces to fight Hitler and other foes of freedom.
