Leland Gerber took this color photo (it's fading quickly) of the Beaver art piece on the Bluffton University campus. The work today is somewhat covered by shrubs but still exists between Founders Hall and Berky Science Hall. This photo was taken in the mid-1960s. In the background you can see Lincoln Hall and Hirschey Hall.
Icon viewer Dick Jordan pointed out an interesting "it's a small world" connection in the current issue of the Michigan Travel Ideas" official state travel guide.
One page in the guide refers to the Grand Haven area of western Michigan. Jim and Pat King of Bluffton are quoted in that section. Their part in the guide follows: "Jim and Pat King of Bluffton, Ohio, are looking at the paintings, too. Pat says they return to this area every year, this time with their grown kids. "We're in love with the lake - we always have to have something to remember it by."
