January 2008 Rock Jones Visit

Ohio Wesleyan’s future president, Rock Jones, and his wife, Melissa Lollar Jones, enjoyed a warm reception amid a flurry of activities during their three-day visit to campus last week. Jones greeted students, faculty, and staff at two separate receptions, addressed the Board of Trustees, conducted five media interviews, and attended a series of meetings. Board members surprised him with a welcome gift that is bound to be well-used: an Ohio Wesleyan jacket. As Delaware Gazette editor, Jeff Robinson, says in his January 26 column, “Ohio Wesleyan should have a ‘Rock’-solid addition to its staff.”
