Bluffton University has new events in store at the beginning, middle and end of its Homecoming celebration on Saturday, Oct. 4.
“New Beginnings” is the theme for Homecoming, which will kick off Saturday with the launch of a new book at The Lion and Lamb Peace Arts Center. From 9-10:30 a.m., visitors may stop by the center for a reception with Lisa Weaver and 2013 Bluffton alumna Amanda Huston, the author and illustrator, respectively, of “Swords to Plowshares,” a children’s book published by the center. Copies of the book will be available for purchase and signing.
Liberal arts education “makes a difference—for those who receive it and for the society we live in,” Bluffton University’s president reminded students, faculty and staff in a Sept. 9 address.
Isabelle M. West, 97, of Bluffton, died Sept. 10, 2014, at Willow Ridge, Bluffton. Services will begin at 10:30 a.m. Monday at First United Methodist Church, Bluffton. Visitation will be from 2-8 p.m. Sunday at Chiles-Laman Funeral and Cremation Services, Bluffton. Other arrangements are pending.
