Former Princeton basketball player Chris Thomforde was officially inducted as Moravian College's 15th president on Saturday.
The only apparent glitch in the ceremony was during the official induction. He had to kneel and stoop over so the chairman of the board of trustees could place the presidential medallion around his neck. Priscilla Payne Hurd barely cleared the top of the podium during her speech, whereas Thomforde is taller than Michael Jordan.

"I think I speak for the whole team when I say that I am very excited about the hiring of Coach Johnson," freshman center Zach Finley said. "He seems to bring the type of leadership our team needs to keep getting better, and I think everyone in the program is excited to get a fresh start and begin working for next year."
