To celebrate its 1999-2000 centennial, Bluffton College commissioned Perry Bush to write the history of its first 100 years. Dancing with the Kobzar tells two stories: first, the tale of BC's birth, growth, and development, framed in a social history of BC student life over the past century. A photo essay illustrates this narrative. Second, the account of BC's unique role in Mennonite higher education, that of a Mennonite school that speaks to students from a wide variety of religious backgrounds and commitments.
Combining an engaging style with scholarly support (including extensive notes plus bibliography and index), Dancing with the Kobzar delicately balances critical assessment and affirmation of the Bluffton legacy of progressive Anabaptism and its place within Anabaptism.
