Overall I'm most proud of my secondary education from here. At the time I went to Bass there was so much offered that I took for granted - my sister Cyndi and I were helped a lot by the Sandersons, Rausches, and Potts from our own home Church in the Shoals area of Alabama - So glad For Harveys, Opps, Evans, Givens, Kauffman, Brown, Monterey, Pitman and so many others like Chastain and Clark - STILL LOVE ALL Y'all I live in Blacksburg now - working on something really special for my "40" year anniversary! 2025

I am a former student/alumnus of BMA. I enjoyed my school years there and learned alot about life. This helped me in my transition to college and my career. I would encourage anyone who is interested to check out the campus in person and see what a diffference it can make.
