Piedmont holds inauguration ceremony for new president Dr. Danny Hollingsworth

Surrounded by students, faculty, staff and board members, as well as family members and delegates from some 15 colleges and universities in the Southeast, Dr. Danny P. Hollingsworth, formerly of Potts Camp, was inaugurated as the 12th president of Piedmont College during a special service Oct. 14 at the college Chapel in Demorest, Ga.

Hollingsworth is the son of Dale Hollingsworth of Potts Camp.

Former Piedmont President Dr. W. Ray Cleere, Board Chairman Thomas A. “Gus” Arrendale, and Hollingsworth’s wife, Elizabeth, presented the new president with academic regalia and a medallion featuring the seal of the college to mark the transition to the new administration.

The ceremony was part of a two-day inauguration celebration, which included a keynote address by Dr. David Spence, president of the Southern Regional Education Board on Oct. 13; the inauguration in the chapel followed by a reception in the Mason-Scharfenstein Museum of Art in Demorest; and a Friday night concert by noted Steinway pianist Terry Lowry of Albany, Ga.

In his inaugural address, Dr. Hollingsworth recounted Piedmont’s beginnings as the J.S. Green Institute, founded in 1897 by local residents to provide higher education for their Appalachian sons and daughters.

Hollingsworth comes to Piedmont with some 36 years experience in business and higher education. Before being named president, he served as executive vice president and chief financial officer of Carson-Newman College. He previously taught business and accounting at Mississippi State University, where he served as director of the School of Accountancy and was interim Dean of the College of Business and Industry. From 1987 to 2000, he taught at Baylor University, serving five years as chair of the Department of Accounting and Business Law.
