Paula Unrau, instructor of theatre and English, will present the colloquium, "Conversations in Poetry: Duende, Corn, Wheat and Cross-Pollination" on Friday, Dec. 1.
Along with Dr. Jeff Gundy and others, Unrau will explore the “conversations” that occurred, pretty much by accident, when three very nontraditional students showed up for Dr. Gundy’s poetry class. Though not a scientific study of the effects of nontraditional students in the classroom (and certainly not reproducible), the results were, in Unrau’s words, “pretty cool.”

Lessons on community, business and leadership merged this year during the annual Mennonite Economic Development Associates (MEDA) conference in Vancouver, Canada.
During the conference, seven Bluffton University students, including Wyatt Baer, a senior accounting major from Marshallville, learned how business majors can leverage their strengths to improve society.
The students were also able to network with business professionals and community leaders also in attendance.
