Description

“Brother Bob” attended Lipscomb between 1927–30, demonstrating excellence in academics, athletics, and music. He was a tenor in the college’s traveling quartets. From 1933 to 1943 he taught at Lipscomb, coached high school and college basketball and baseball, and led chapel singing. He was instrumental in broadcasting chapel services nationwide via CBS network stations. After a distinguished career as a teacher and administrator in Nashville public schools, he renewed his association with Lipscomb. He created the Golden Circle reunion and led a new era of alumni involvement. A deeply spiritual man of integrity, character, and enthusiasm, he truly is Lipscomb's “grand old alumnus.”
