  • 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.

  • Faith Integration
    President’s Report | Spring Update 2017 Transformation continues to be Louisiana College’s reality. From the campus to classrooms to curb appeal, transformation is the watchword. Guiding us toward a transformational future is our VISION 2020 Strategic Plan. A product of collaboration among faculty, staff, administration, Board of Trustees and Board of Visitors, VISION 2020 cites the myriad of methods to move LC toward the plan’s ultimate goal: enrolling 1,500 students by the year 2020. Still in draft status, you may view VISION 2020 under the news heading at LC’s website (lacollege.edu). VISION 2020 is the proposed forecast, but as you read the remainder of this report, you will easily see how God has blessed the College since last August, and has done so in ways we could not have imagined or implemented without His providence. FAITH INTEGRATION Underscoring the significance of our curricula built upon a Christian worldview, several faculty contributed to a second edition of our series of essays titled “Faith Matters.” Faculty have also read “Renewing Minds” by David Dockery and engaged in discussion through interdisciplinary groups. Our twice-weekly chapel services featured notable speakers from Louisiana and beyond. Led by LBC Executive Director Dr. David Hankins, a missions commissioning service concluded the series as we commissioned eight students to missions efforts across Louisiana, the US and around the world. Faith integration training for athletics coaches and LC staff centered on engaging students with an emphasis on sharing one’s personal faith. LC’s effort to equip bi-vocational minsters through a Certificate Program enrolled 17 last fall semester and has a similar number slated to enroll this coming fall.
