The University of Florida Inaugural Steering Committee oversaw all of the planning, organization, and finalization of the activities and events connected with the inauguration of J. Bernard Machen. From October 2003 - March 2004 the official invitations were issued to steering committee members and their work began on or before March 2004. The actual ceremony of induction was known as the "Installation" but all activities and events for the two-day celebration were to be referred to as "Inauguration."
