Beavers Football I am a concerned family member, of one of your Seniors who has played football for the Beavers for the last 3 years of his schooling. I hear now that there won't be any more football. Why? I know not enough money,thats not a good enough answer. It is to bad for him now and all the other football players who came to this college to play football. I hope there could be somthing all of us could do to help change all your minds. Please reconsider. Thank you Donna Adams

I feel deeply saddened for the football student-athletes at BC that no longer have a program to call their own. Often administrators make decisions that are based on their own personal values; not on the values of those people which they should be considering. Furthermore, to you former BC football players I encourage you to find a new place to call home. I recommend Eureka College, similar to BC, the tution is less, and they honor and cherish their football program. Best of luck in whatever you decide, and my thoughts are w/you.
