JOELTON, Tenn.--The Bluffton University women's golf team capped off its 2023 spring opener in Tennessee at the Music City Shootout on Sunday, Feb. 26. The Beavers finished 5th overall, but they were 2nd out of the five HCAC squads participation over the weekend.

A twilight hour at Buckeye Lake was filled with watching Canada geese, Mallard ducks, and a white domestic duck known by locals as George. Until they were all upstaged by a Great Blue Heron, who was putting a fishing show. We watched him catch two and miss one, shaking out his wings and feathers between each dart.

Dr. Jane Wood, president of Bluffton University, is one of 15 college presidents selected for The Council of Independent Colleges’ Presidential Renewal Program.

The year-long program includes webinars and seminars designed to help college presidents sustain their leadership momentum through extensive reading, engaged discussions and the sharing of personal narratives.

“Members of the Bluffton University Board of Trustees are very pleased and thankful that President Wood was selected for this wonderful opportunity,” said Cheryl Hacker ’81, board chair. “We are grateful for President Wood’s leadership over the past five years. We know this kind of leadership takes a relentless drive. The board will look forward to hearing about the insights she will gain from CIC’s program.”
