To My Fellow Alumni:
I am honored to serve as President of the Alumni Association. I graduated in 1974 – 50 years ago! It seems impossible that it’s been that long. I have many great recollections of my times at Pfeiffer – Dr. Dial’s unbelievable memory, Dr. Manly smoking his pipe, and Mr. Pickler explaining economics from an egg farmer’s point of view, to name just a few. I have many special and lasting relationships from my time there.
I got involved with the Alumni Association only in the last few years. I began by going to Homecoming, and after an absence of about 20 years, I found that it was great fun not only to reconnect with a number of my classmates, but also to develop new friendships with other alumni. Pfeiffer is still a great place!
So why am I involved? Part of it is my nature. At Pfeiffer, I was involved with a variety of activities and played several intramural sports. It was a time of growth. I also served as Entertainment Chair of the College Union Board. We had some great concerts while I was at Pfeiffer and I learned some valuable skills dealing with music agents and musicians. I remember The Guess Who, Billy Preston, Helen Reddy, Goose Creek Symphony, Black Oak Arkansas, Hall & Oates, and Harry Chapin, just to name a few. My love of live music continues to this day.
My involvement now is just to help any way I can, whether that be encouraging fellow alumni to get involved or making financial contributions as I am able. I would love to speak with anyone about my alma mater because Pfeiffer University is on the move! The future looks bright!
Again, it is an honor and a privilege to serve as your President. You are always welcome to contact me at dbell529@gmail.com with any questions or concerns. Hope to see you at Homecoming!
PFEIFFER IS HOME!!
