Bluffton University was founded as Central Mennonite College. As the cornerstone was laid for College Hall, President Noah C. Hirschy shared an idea that has proved as durable as the structure itself: “Let us expect great things.”

While affiliated with Mennonite Church USA, Bluffton's students, faculty, staff and alumni are not necessarily Mennonite. More than 26 religious denominations are represented on campus.

“Bluffton University seeks to prepare students of all backgrounds for life as well as vocation, for responsible citizenship, for service to all peoples and, ultimately, for the purposes of God’s universal kingdom.”
