Bluffton University seeks to prepare students of all backgrounds for life as well as vocation, for responsible citizenship, for service to all
peoples and, ultimately, for the purposes of God's universal kingdom. We do what we do because we believe in bringing together people
and ideas for a greater purpose, For instance, we bring together academic quality with deep personal caring for each of our students, and
we bring together modest tuition with outstanding financial aid for a truly affordable private education. To most effectively bring these things
together, we have chosen to be a small, 4-year, Liberal Arts University, where we have been delivering these outcomes since 1899.
As a Christian institution affiliated with the Mennonite Church, Bluffton welcomes faculty and staff members who seek to follow the life and
teachings of Jesus Christ, who respect or espouse the peace church vision of the university, who are committed to serving those in need,
and to multi-ethnic, intercultural and international understanding.
In light of Bluffton’s commitments as a Christian institution in the Anabaptist Mennonite tradition, what are the personal commitments and
special gifts you would bring to the Bluffton University community?
