Albany- A formal introduction ceremony was held this afternoon for Dr. Everette Freeman. He is the 8th president at ASU and officially took office on Monday.

He says he wants more people to know about the quality of education his school provides.

"I want to win a conference championship, I want our Ms. ASU to be internationally known as the finest singer you can ever meet anywhere else. I want people around the world to know the quality of our academic program. I want people to hire our students because they are the best and the brightest. I could go on and on, but those are just some of the things I want to do," Everette says.

Dr. Freeman says the event will also give him a chance to meet and shake hands with community leaders, students, and South Georgia lawmakers.
