Dr. Wiebe Boer, his wife Joanna, and youngest son arrived in Grand Rapids, Michigan this week. Within hours of their arrival, they were greeted by hundreds of new faces. Boer鈥檚 tenure as 麻豆区鈥檚 12th president is now officially underway.

O Canada

Boer, who holds triple citizenship from Canada, the United States, and the Netherlands concluded his first week as Calvin鈥檚 president by celebrating Canada Day with dozens of students and colleagues, some who share Canadian citizenship with him.

鈥溌槎骨 is a bi-national Canadian and American institution,鈥 said Boer. 鈥淚t鈥檚 wonderful to celebrate that heritage and acknowledge the important contributions that Canadian students, faculty, and staff have and continue to make at this great institution.鈥

A shared vision

Calvin鈥檚 current student body hails from four Canadian provinces and 49 other countries around the world. The university鈥檚 Vision 2030 aims to expand on that strength in international geographic diversity by reaching even more learners around the world. Boer鈥檚 international experience and vision seem to position him well to lead the university toward that aspiration.

Boer brings a unique combination and depth of experience to Calvin having worked across the private and social sectors in four countries in two continents over the past two decades, most recently as CEO of Shell-All On, a renewable energy investment company in Lagos, Nigeria.

鈥淭hroughout the different countries and contexts I鈥檝e served in, my focus has always been on creating impact, on making people鈥檚 lives better. So, to be called to help lead Calvin who is forming graduates to be agents of renewal is humbling,鈥 said Boer. 鈥淚 am excited to innovate and collaborate with a talented faculty and staff as we together pursue Calvin鈥檚 ambitious vision and articulate that vision in a way that gains momentum both locally and globally.鈥

While Boer鈥檚 tenure is underway, his official inauguration ceremony will take place in October 2022.
