Bluffton professor presenting on university history
Mar. 24—BLUFFTON — Dr. Steve Harnish, professor of mathematics at Bluffton University, will present the Colloquium, "The Mennonite and the Quantum Physicist: An Early Slice of Bluffton College History" at 4 p.m. Friday, March 28 in Centennial Hall's Stutzman Lecture Hall.
As 2025 marks celebrations for Anabaptism (500), Bluffton University (125) and quantum mechanics (100), Harnsih will share an early slice of Bluffton College history from 1913 to 1946 in which the personal lives and rural Mennonite roots of four Ohioans (Otelia, Olga, Herbert and Arthur) intersect major world events and scientific developments of the era.
Images and documents will be shared from archives at Bluffton University, The University of Chicago and The College of Wooster.
The event is free and open to the public.
