Boise State University held the investiture ceremony for its eighth president, David W. Hahn, at the Morrison Center in Boise on October 29, attended by students, faculty, staff and community members. In his inaugural address, Hahn presented the theme “We Are One Boise State” and his goals for the university, the university reported.
Hahn emphasized that Idaho's future is closely tied to Boise State's students, faculty and staff, as well as to sister universities, elected officials, taxpayers, employers and the wider community.

The university said more of Hahn's vision is available on its “One Boise State” webpage.
