Lighthouse on the Hill: the Bluefield The Bluefield College Story Lighthouse on the Hill: Retired Senior Professor of History By: Rev. David M. Armbrister Resiliency! This is a word that aptly fits the story of Bluefield College. Financial issues have beset the school since its beginning, often giv- ing those directly associated with its operation, as well as those simply interested in its welfare, concern about its continuance as an education- al institution. If there had not been men and women of strong faith and characterized by their willingness to make great sacrifices, the college might not exist today. There would be no eighty-fifth anniversary celebration in 2007. We can be thankful for that band of men who made that trip to Bristol, Virginia in a day when travel was not easy. The enthusiasm and drive that they took with them established a model that others would follow in supporting a Baptist college and, initially, a fitting school equivalent to a high school for southwest Vir- ginia. The courage and determination that ac- companied their great belief that the school was in God’s plan continued to uplift and guide the institution through its early years. These same qualities and convictions have enabled the school to overcome its problems and emerge as one of Virginia’s leading institutions of higher learning today. The author of this work has sought to present this marvelous story in a manner that will cap- ture the unique spirit of this school and those who have been associated with it through the years. His prayer is that the story will awaken a new understanding of the service that the col- lege has rendered in its eighty-five years and provide the groundwork on which it can go for- ward in the years ahead. Many students await the opportunity to receive their education at Bluefield College. The Bluefield College Story Lighthouse on the Hill: Retired Senior Professor of History By: Rev. David M.

In 1950, Dr. Charles L.

Since I have always valued has played in the realm of higher education. Throughout the entire any advice that Dr. Delgado offered on any matter that I would process, my prayer has consistently been that the finished product take to him for his input, I found great satisfaction in his response will do justice to the story of this fine school and that it will also regarding a title. It helped in fortifying my belief that what I was provide enlightenment and enjoyment to those who read it. already considering was a suitable choice. The college seal contains three Latin words – Deus meaning God, There are additional references that I could cite to strengthen Patria, meaning country, and Lux, meaning light. While each of these my decision for the title selected, and I honestly believe that it is words speaks clearly about the purpose of Bluefield College and has highly likely that the idea of light or lighthouse has occurred to importance, I selected Lux as the key consideration in determining many persons over the course of the life of the college without their the title for the book. Throughout its history, there have been any thoughts ever being recorded. When one views the full scope of the number of references to the school as a light or lighthouse. From the influence exerted by this institution during its lifetime, it can truly minutes of the meeting held at the First Baptist Church in Newport be said that “light,” “lighthouse,” “beacon,” or similar descriptions News by the Baptist General Association of Virginia on November 3, fit quite suitably. For those who may not have seen the college from 1922, come the words describing the college as a “lighthouse on top such a perspective, I sincerely hope that this account will serve to of the Appalachian Mountains.”1 This was barely two months after lead many to share this concept.

I have also made a conscious effort to present the whole have first-hand knowledge of the school, this knowledge might well of the college’s history and not to leave a picture of two separate be limited in its scope. Certainly this would be the case when looking schools – one a junior college and the other a senior college, while, at back at its earliest years. While there are materials that cover the the same time stressing the importance of this change for the college decades of the 1920’s, ‘30’s, and ‘40’s, the people who experienced and the students served by it. the college during those decades are fewer in number every day that It has been a challenging but wonderful and rewarding experience passes. The opportunities to see and converse with them are very for me to be engaged in this project. There were those moments rare today. In addition, one must also consider the transition from when I did stop and question my worthiness in undertaking such junior-college to senior-college status. This development has left a monumental task. Words of encouragement from my wife and many on both sides of this transition with incomplete knowledge from others at the college and outside of it helped in getting me back and awareness of the different phases of the school’s history. This on course and in strengthening my perseverance to continue the writer hopes that the total history, as it unfolds in this work, will work. In the final analysis, I can truthfully say that the rewards far aid in opening up greater knowledge and understanding and will outweigh the efforts and time expended. Now I await the responses encourage new or strengthened loyalty to Bluefield College and the of those who read and see this book in regard to its readability and fulfillment of its mission in this new century.

Pakistan claimed the honours in the dress rehearsal for the final with a memo- rable victory over the world champions in a dramatic day/night encounter at Trent Bridge on Tuesday. The game lived up to its billing right from the onset as Saeed Anwar and Saleem Elahi tore into the Australia attack. Elahi was in particularly impressive form, blast- ing 79 from 91 balls as Pakistan plundered 290 from their 50 overs. But, never wanting to be outdone, the Australians responded in fine style with Adam Gilchrist attacking the Pakistan bowling with equal relish. The wicketkeep- er sensationally raced to his 20th one-day international half-century in just 29 balls on his way to a quick-fire 70. Once Saqlain Mushtaq had ended his 44-ball knock however, skipper Waqar Younis stepped up to take the game by the scruff of the neck. The pace star is bowling as well as he has done in years as his side come to the end of their tour of England and his figures of six for 59 fully deserved the man of the match award and to take his side to victory.
