Board of Trustees Dr. David L. Bailey, Jr. (’60) - vice chair

Dear Alumni and Friends:

Mrs. Rebecca Easley Beckett

At Bluefield College we believe passion makes life worth living. And, whether it’s a passion for faith, a passion for service, a passion for learning, a passion for competition, or simply a passion for life, students at Bluefield College are exploring, finding, nurturing, and living their passion.

Dr. Jo Lynne DeMary Dr. David W. Dockery Dr. Janelle B. Duremdes Dr. Michael R. DuVal (’75) Mr. F. Tyler Easley (’42) - emeritus

As you scan the pages of this annual report, you will see how our students made a difference in the lives of people in Central America, thanks to their passion for service. You will read about the fulfillment of lifelong dreams that are a result of our inSpire students’ passion for learning.

Dr. T. Keith Edwards - emeritus Mr. William D. Evans Dr. Daniel E. Grabeel, Sr. (’55) Rev. William M. Hartsfield

This annual report also will share news of our passion for teaching that brought national recognition to the Teacher Education Program. It will reveal our passion for community, displayed in the celebration of the opening of a new residence hall and our passion for competition, demonstrated through the reinstatement of intercollegiate football.

Mr. J. Ronald Hypes (’82)

All these accomplishments – the finding, the nurturing and the living of passions – would not have been possible without your generosity. That’s why this report, above all, is about you, our alumni and friends, because hearts, minds and lives are being transformed on this campus as a result of your passion to give.

Mr. Thomas E. Marshall, IV (’68)

We are grateful for your faithful commitment to Bluefield College and to the students whose lives we touch.

Dr. Claude H. Rhea

Six students represent BC at Destination Imagination’s 2010 Global Finals competition in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Tazewell County’s Industrial Development Authority (IDA) grants BC the use of the former Pocahontas High School in order to bring new educational and recreational programs to the county.

In front of alumni, friends, supporters, the media, and local and state dignitaries, ending months of speculation and culminating a nearly four-year-long feasibility study, the college announces the return of intercollegiate football to campus after 69 years without the sport.

A passion for competition: BC unveils its plans to revive football on campus. n

Music students participate in a summer mission trip to Austria, sharing the love of Christ through music.
