A majority of guests attending the Presidential Inauguration will be dressed in business attire. Students and alumni are invited to add their favorite Fairmont State piece of clothing that best represents their time on campus. This includes campus sports teams, Greek life, and student organizations. Event appropriate attire is encouraged.
Examples of business professional attire: When dressing business professional, you can wear tidy dresses, slacks, skirts, dark-colored suits and ties. Business professional tops include neat button-down shirts or blouses with a blazer. Business professional shoes include heels, loafers or flats.
The parking lot adjacent to President Davis’ home will be reserved for his out-of-town guests and by special invitation.
Guests are asked to park on the top deck of the parking garage. Parking volunteers will help direct traffic as needed. When the top deck is full, parking will then go to the lower levels of the parking garage. Overflow parking will be in the stone lot on Locust Ave. Shuttles will be available.
Faculty whose classes meet on the afternoon/evening of April 4th are encouraged to adjust their assignments. This will permit them to join their colleagues in the procession and their students to participate in the festivities that evening.
Faculty should be in the staging area (Falcon Center—Gym 2) by 3:00 p.m. Light refreshments will be available.
Staff attending the event may go directly to Gym 1 and be seated with the other guests. We recommend being seated by 3:40 p.m.
