Randall and Linda Wolthuis

This scholarship is established from a profound sense of gratitude to God for His faithfulness and abundant blessings given to us, the donors. We are both 1976 graduates. Linda graduated with a sociology and psychology double major. Randy graduated with a biology/chemistry major and was divinely led to the field of psychology later in his academic career. He also played basketball and baseball while at Calvin. Linda enjoyed a career with the State of Michigan, Department of Human Services, serving needy people of Kent County and later supervising a number of department staff members, including an intake staff of child protective services. Randy served in several capacities at Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services, directed the counseling center at Calvin University from 2000-2010, and spent the last 14 years in private practice. Our two children are both former Calvin athletes and graduates of Calvin. The ideal recipient of this scholarship will have a heart for people and the field of psychology and will intend to pursue graduate studies and eventually be in position to use his/her gifts and education toward the redemption of a broken world.
