Retirement on cards for Sam Beidleman
After investing over 50-years of his life and experience for the well being of the Muhlenberg College community, Director Athletics and Recreation, Sam Beidleman, has envisaged his retirement. The veteran official will step down the aisle on June 30, 2012.
Among other shortcomings, community colleges are deprived of good athletics directors these days. And at such crucial times, the Muhlenberg College will definitely feel the absence of a veteran like Beidleman.
The outgoing director athletics’ services for the development of the department are profound. He has remained vigorously involved in training students and facilitating them and the college with the latest equipment.
Acknowledging Beidleman’s services, President of the college, Randy Helm said, “It’s a lucky college president who can find an athletic director who shares his values and priorities as perfectly as Sam has shared mine. The fact that his experience with the
College has spanned six decades has also been a tremendous asset”.
Referring to his rich experience, pleasant nature and his athletic wisdom, the president of the school said that Beidleman will definitely be missed.
For Beidleman, this is not going to be his first retirement. Earlier, he decided to call it a quit back in August 2000.
However, to fill in the vacant post of interim Athletic Director, he took charge of the office in 2003. He has been in his present office for the past eight years or so.
Karen Green, the Vice President of student affairs shared similar views to that of the college’s President on Beidleman’s retirement.
The Vice President, who is also the Dean of Students, said that she was going to miss the light humor displayed by the Beidleman about his age. She stated that it was the veteran’s friendship that she was going to miss the most.
She said, “Sam Beidleman was one of the first colleagues who played a role in my transition to Muhlenberg College in 2006. He would call me weekly to ask if I had arrived yet, because he was ready to vacate the Dean of Students office”.
During his career as Director Athletics, Muhlenberg College bagged eighteen Centennial Conference championships along with nine other major tournament titles in soccer, basketball and football.
