When asked where you were when the first African-American president was inaugurated -- you will be able to say: "I was at Ithaca College in the Emerson Suites, watching with a few hundred of my closest friends!"

Television coverage of the inauguration will be on display in Emerson Suites between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, January 20, 2009.

The swearing-in ceremony takes place that day on the west front of the U.S. Capitol building, with the president-elect being sworn in by noon. Amendment 20 of the U.S. Constitution states that the term of the president expires at noon on January 20.
