Top Mormon church educational officials will be in Hawai'i next week for the inauguration of Brigham Young University- Hawai'i's ninth president.

Steven C. Wheelwright took over in June from Eric B. Shumway, who completed a 41-year career with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints school in Hawai'i.

The official ceremonies on Nov. 6 will be on the campus in La'ie, with a reception for the community to follow.

Wheelwright is a former business professor at Stanford and senior associate dean of the Harvard Business School MBA program.
