Dr. Amy Mullins, associate professor of education at Bluffton University, has been awarded a Bluffton University Research Center grant.
Mullins, an Ada resident and member of the Ada Board of Education, will work on an app and additional literacy resources for young adult students based on her previous work with the phonics resource she developed called “Crack the Code.”
Faculty from eight Mennonite institutions of higher education in the United States and Canada came together May 26-27, 2022, for the Marpeck Deans Conference hosted by Bluffton University. Following the theme “Transcending Disciplinary Boundaries,” sessions focused on how productive teaching, learning and research emerge through interdisciplinary approaches and curricula.
The conference provided participants a way to both learn what is going well on other campus and make connections with colleagues at different Mennonite campuses.
In recognition of the contributions Bluffton alumni make to the institution and in their respective communities, Bluffton University is helping graduates continue their education through the Bluffton University Alumni Master’s Degree Grant.
Bluffton University was recently named to the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society’s 2022 Transfer Honor Roll in recognition of the dynamic pathways the university has created to support transfer students.
Bluffton is one of the 171 colleges and universities selected for the honor. Colleges were named based on PTK’s “Transfer Friendliness” rating.
