Tonight's the night. The student (or students) who have played the role of J. Denny Beaver, Bluffton University's sports mascot, will be revealed. Details are in the story below this photo.
Jamil, what year did you graduate from Bluffton High School? Can you share some memories you have of school or growing up in Bluffton?
I graduated in 1995 from BHS. What I remember most is the fantastic teachers we had. It seemed all of them truly had a passion for teaching and wanted to make a difference. Mr. Brown was especially entertaining and engaging with his experiments.
It’s that time of year again at Bluffton University - J. Denny Beaver is about to lose his head.
The Bluffton mascot will do just that tonight (Feb. 13), when he is “beheaded” at halftime of Bluffton’s men’s basketball game against Defiance College. Tipoff will be at 8 p.m. in the Sommer Center.
The American Red Cross will hold a blood drive on Friday, Feb. 15 from 11:30 a.m. until 5 p.m. The Bloodmobile parked at the Sommer Center at Bluffton University during those hours.
Donors are encouraged to walk-in. There currently exists an urgent need for blood and all are encouraged to give.
