Bluffton's kaleidoscope
Where is it? What is it? Is it looking up, down, or straight ahead? Or, it is a kaleidoscope with most of the colors missing. If you stood in a certain point on the second floor of Bluffton University Centennial Hall and looked up, this is what you would see. It's the skylight of the building.

It has been a very busy summer for permanent improvement projects in our district. In each summer’s district newsletter and in The Bluffton Icon, we outline the revenue that was brought in from this 1/2% permanent improvement income tax and the projects (along with the cost of each project) completed with these tax dollars.
Below is the revenue chart of the combined monies brought in by the tax. Below that is the list of expenditures and projects completed thanks to this fund.
