TERRE HAUTE, Ind. - The Bluffton University volleyball team made the long trip to Terre Haute, Ind. for its Heartland Conference opener with a talented Rose-Hulman squad on Saturday, Oct. 5. Bluffton found the 5 p.m. start time to its liking after a 25-15 setback in the lidlifter. The Beavers claimed three of the next four sets, including a 15-13 victory in the fifth for a crucial conference road win.
On the rough and undulating footing of the Elvin R. King cross country course at Cedarville University, the Bluffton University cross country teams faced unseasonably high temperatures and humidity while competing in the All-Ohio Championship meet.
This huge event saw 50 women's and 48 men's teams from all three NCAA divisions as well as NAIA schools compete simultaneously against each other.
Natasha Trethewey, the Poet Laureate of the United States, will deliver Bluffton University’s annual Keeney Peace Lecture at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Oct. 15, in Founders Hall.
Trethewey will read from her work—including the Pulitzer Prize-winning 2006 collection “Native Guard”—during her presentation, titled “On Poetry and History.” The event is free and open to the public.
