Celebrating the Inauguration

President Barack Obama's inauguration is being celebrated and watched not just around the U.S., but all around the world. Each group is celebrating in their own way. Here at my school, Chestnut Hill College, we incorporated President Obama's call to service with our Catholic, service-oriented mission by having students, faculty, and staff pledge commitments of service to specific organizations as well as to more general themes, such as fighting for tolerance. Our theme was "Be the change we can believe in."
And for all you inauguration junkies and presidential buffs, we've prepared a collection of inauguration and presidential links for your enjoyment...
