Monday, April 13, 2015. Open letter to Bloomsburg University community. As spring semester nears its end, many Bloomsburg University students and outsiders will take part in the annual event known as Block Party. Although this is not a university-sanctioned event, most Huskies engage in this informal social event safely and peacefully.

Bloomsburg University President: February 2015
http://bupresident.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 23, 2015. A landmark day reveals a brighter future. We recently celebrated a day that will long be remembered as a milestone.

http://bupresident.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2014. The Husky pride that binds us. In this age of ever-expanding digital communications, written correspondence seems like a dying art. However, there’s something personal about letters that cannot be replicated through text, email or social media. Julie’s story not only touched me as Bloomsburg University’s president, it resonated with an alumnus from the Class of 1982 now living in Florida. After 32 years, he admitted this was the first piece of correspondence h...How do I know?

Sunday, August 24, 2014. It’s become tradition for me to do a welcome back video to kick off the new academic year, joining the ranks of presidents from universities and colleges across the country who are featured on YouTube. I’m not sure which president or school can be credited with the first one, but I’d like to think Bloomsburg University is among the pioneers. This latest version is the sixth time I have worked with the Office of Marketing and Communications. And Instructional Media Services. Lifes...

Friday, December 19, 2014. Putting theory into practice. A phenomenon is occurring across our campus as the amount of undergraduate research grows each semester and each summer. Yes, I said undergraduate research. Traditionally research in higher education has been reserved for graduate studies, a staple for master thesis work and doctoral candidacy. Here at Bloomsburg University, we’ve added a third component. Working with students, Ball’s research may suggest ways to combat addiction. In the ...These t...
