Thomas Jefferson was inaugurated on March 4, 1801. He was the first president to take the oath of office in the nation’s permanent capital, Washington, D.C. Although Washington was a new city, it was already familiar to President Jefferson. In fact, Jefferson had helped plan the capital’s streets and public buildings. Besides being a city planner and architect, the new president was a writer, a scientist, and the inventor of several gadgets and tools. President John F. Kennedy welcomed forty-nine Nobel Prize winners to the White House in 1962, saying, “I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent and of human knowledge that has ever been gathered together at the White House - with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.” After his inauguration, Jefferson moved into the Presidential Palace. The palace was more than a home; it contained offices for the president and some of his staff and advisors. It also included dining and reception rooms, where the president could entertain congressmen. However, President Jefferson’s wife died in 1782. But it was also because Jefferson liked to live in a simple fashion. Once, he showed up for an important meeting wearing old clothes and down at the heels slippers! Neither Washington nor Adams would ever have dressed so casually. Jefferson was different from the first two presidents in other ways, too. He disagreed with them about how the country should be run, and about what part a president should play in running it.
