In March 1970, Bullard was tapped by the newly installed Rochester Institute of Technology president Paul A. Miller to become that institution's first provost. His mission was to improve the "educational level and quality" of the institute. In June 1980, he assumed the presidency of Bethany College.〔 〕 Bullard's professional activities included serving as president of the West Virginia Foundation of Independent Colleges and the West Virginia Association of College and University Presidents.
