Celebrating Chancellor Li’s Investiture: “Honor the Journey, Inspire the Future”

With a theme of “Honor the Journey, Inspire the Future,” Chancellor Li used the opportunity to not just celebrate UNO’s history, but make clear that the university’s first 114 years were only the beginning.

Joining Chancellor Li for the event were her husband, Frank Stalla, who teaches for UNO’s College of Business Administration; her mother, who flew in from London; her daughter, Nicole, a student at the University of Virginia; her niece, Bianca, who came in from Hawaii; her sisters; and her father and mother in-law.
