    Andre Isbell: Purpose-Filled Approach

    Andre Isbell: Purpose-Filled Approach

    Purpose, passion, action. Dr. Andre Isbell, the new Assistant Professor and Coordinator of the Criminal Justice Program, embodies all these things. Dr. Isbell brings years of experience to his position at BMC, centered around a gospel purpose. “To me it’s always about action,” he says. “You can’t be a believer in name only; you have to be a believer in your actions.” He adds, “I think that’s what criminal justice is.” He is focusing on preparing his students to face the world
    Christmas Traditions

    Christmas Traditions

    As the year draws closer to the close, the closer we all get to Christmas. Halloween has long passed, though the stores will have already begun to fill with string lights, ornaments, and plastic trees beforehand. Those that plan ahead will begin to purchase presents for those that they love, if they haven’t already. Those like me will probably wait until the week before Christmas Day and pray that the Amazon packages arrive on time. We all have different ways that we approach
    Fall Festivities

    Fall Festivities

    The Student Union Building (SUB) became the site of a Halloween carnival on Thursday, October 28th. Excited students made their way to the carnival in a variety of costumes, ready to forget about their work for a while and enjoy one another’s company in this festive atmosphere. With blacklights, dancing, and a costume contest, the night was one not easily forgotten. The Student Body Association (SBA) had worked hard that day to transform the SUB into a carnival-like atmospher

    Flying High: Topper Volleyball

    The volleyball team has been playing incredibly this year and their record proves it with a 14-game winning streak before the streak ended against Loyola. They ended their regular season with a record of 26-7 on the season and 11-3 in conference.

    If Not Us, Then Who?

    Blue Mountain College has always considered service an important aspect of a student’s life while at BMC. Service is a great Biblical value, and Blue Mountain College aspires to instill this value into the heart of each student. Every class, club and society is highly encouraged to plan a service project to span throughout the school year. These projects can be school based, locally/community based, or even nationally/worldwide based. Most projects are still in the planning p

    A Fun Race for a Mission's Case

    The Monster Mad Dash on October 30 was a 5k marathon to raise money for summer missions. All the contestants came ready to play at 3:00. The costume contest was first, and 1st place was a tie between Jacob Smith and Adam Purge. The award for most creative costume went to Cody Enis and the one for the scariest costume went to Logan Sweet. The race actually started at 3:19, after the costume contest. Since the costume contest had been before the race, the contestants ran the ra
