Bluffton University

Due to Hurricane Sandy and resulting airport closures on the East Coast, Murli Buluswar is unable to travel to deliver Bluffton University’s annual Presidential Leadership Lecture on Tuesday, Oct. 30.

The lecture by the 1991 Bluffton alumnus will be rescheduled for a date during the spring semester.

The Defiance College volleyball team could do no wrong, defeating Bluffton University in every statistical category and ultimately winning the match 3-0 (25-21, 25-18, 25-16) on Wednesday, Oct. 24. The Beavers are now 14-13 (4-4 HCAC). The Defiance victory snapped a string of six straight Bluffton wins over the Yellow Jackets.

 

A couple years ago, Cody Ridenour and Chad Stearns decided they needed a change.

Ridenour, a 2008 Bluffton University graduate in music education, was admittedly burnt out from teaching. And Stearns, also a Bluffton music education alumnus, in 2000, had been living “out of a suitcase,” he says, as a pianist and conductor with touring musicals, including “Oklahoma!” and “Hairspray.”
