Posted by BEN BEAUMONT – As Dean Rutherford notes below, many Clinton School alumni, students and staff are in Washington today and tomorrow for the Inauguration festivities. We hope to have a few updates from them to share on the Clinton School Blog as Barack Obama becomes the nation’s 44th president. First up is a photo to the right from Clinton School student Jay Thompson who attended yesterday’s events at the Lincoln Memorial including a concert featuring James Taylor and John Legend.
For great Inauguration coverage, we invite you to check out our friend Blake Rutherford’s blog, “Blake’s Think Tank.” Blake is blogging away from Washington where he reports on attending a number of events and even gets five minutes with past Clinton School speaker and ABC politico George Stephanopoulos. CLICK HERE for Blake’s Blog.
Also, we’ll have more in a bit on today’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day activities, including Clinton School students participating in Obama’s call to a National Day of Service.
