Purdue’s Loeb Theater was crowded for the announcement that France Córdova would be Purdue’s next president.
J. Timothy McGinley, chairman of the Purdue Board of Trustees, explains the hiring process to the crowd.
McGinley turns the podium over to Purdue’s 11th president, France Córdova.
Córdova is flanked by her husband, Christian J. Foster (left), and members of the board of trustees.
Córdova has been chancellor at the University of California-Riverside since 2002. Seated next to her husband is student trustee Rachel Cumberbatch, BS ’07.
McGinley joins the audience in applauding Córdova and Foster.
Cumberbatch presents Córdova a Purdue letterman’s jacket and quips that it will help her adjust to the Indiana weather.
Cumberbatch says she thinks Córdova and Foster will be a perfect fit for Purdue.
Córdova’s sense of humor kept the audience laughing during a question-and-answer session.
