Traveling down Dayton's Highway 27 over the past several years, one couldn't help but notice the sign adorning the side of the roadway: FUTURE SITE OF THE BRYAN COLLEGE ENTRANCE. Well, we're proud to announce that the "FUTURE" is NOW! Plans are being finalized for the construction of an entrance to the college which is befitting of the magnificent transformation of the Bryan campus since the destructive fire of 2002.
 
Why, might you ask, is a new entrance to Bryan so important?  Simply stated, the adage "you never get a second chance to create a favorable first impression" says it all!  The proposed entrance would indeed create a most favorable and lasting first impression to those visiting the campus!  Mary and I invite our fellow alumni and friends of Bryan College to join us in seeing this project through to its fruition by pledging our financial support!

A new entrance is not just needed as a way to get on campus. It’s the link to future development for Bryan College. Students, faculty, donors and the community will all be positively affected by the completion of the new entrance. 

We believe it’s the tipping point for the advent of additional impact and effectiveness in achieving the mission of the college.

We were just talking about this whole "new road" last week when Martha Ardelean and her family were in town. Martha said that she was so impressed with the whole campus! She said that she really had not been in the new buildings much and so she took some time to look all around the whole campus one day.  She really liked what she saw! When we talked about the new road she and I both said, "It will be so nice to have a "formal entrance" that meets or exceeds what is waiting at the top when you get there!"  
 
When you are sacrificing to pay the amount you have to pay for a great education, you at least want the campus (which includes the entrance to that campus) to be "worth the money!"  Simply said in a nutshell isn't it?  Basically "you want to get what you pay for!" The current entrance is not the impression I'd want if I were a "sacrificing" parent paying for my child's education!
