HOPE COLLEGE
WINTER 2009-10
A Tradition of Excellence
education within the context of the historic Christian faith, Hope is a place of open inquiry, acceptance of intellectual challenge, rigorous engagement with hard questions, and vigorous but civil discussion of different beliefs and understandings.
Hope is among a select group of colleges highlighted in the book "Putting Students First: How Colleges Develop Students Purposefully." The institutions were included specifically for being "individually and collectively distinguished and distinctive in fostering holistic student development."
Hope has been a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) since 1956. Its teams compete in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA), America's oldest collegiate conference. Hope has crowned 28 individual and team Division III national champions. Fielding 18 intercollegiate sports, nine for men and nine for women, Hope has received the Commissioner's Cup of the MIAA eight consecutive years for having the best cumulative finish in league-sponsored sports. The college has engaged in an ambitious campus development program over the past decade with building projects totaling more than $100 million. New baseball and softball stadiums opened in 2008. The Richard and Helen DeVos Fieldhouse, site of the 2008 and 2009 Division III women's basketball championships, is a state-of-the-art venue that opened in 2005. The Van Andel Soccer Stadium opened this fall.
Hope College successfully balances highly regarded academic and intercollegiate programs.
The college is serving 3,230 undergraduate students who come from 42 states and 28 foreign countries. The curriculum offers courses in 89 majors, leading to a Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Science, or Bachelor of Science in Nursing degrees.
Hope College was founded in 1866 by settlers from the Netherlands. Its athletic teams have a distinct Dutch touch, the women's teams known as the Flying Dutch and the men as the Flying Dutchmen. The Dutch roots also led to the selection of orange and blue as the school's colors. The athletic mascot is known as "Dutch."
Since its founding, Hope College has been affiliated with the Re-formed Church in America. The current student body represents a broad cross section of faiths. Hope College occupies a special place in the vast array of higher education opportunities offered in the United States. The college makes its contribution through the distinctiveness of its educational philosophy and program.
Undergraduate research in all disciplines is a nationally recognized hallmark of the Hope academic experience. The faculty takes its teaching through active learning seriously. As a liberal arts college offering an

The Flying Dutchmen will be seeking to maintain a tradition of excellence
with a team that includes eight returning letterwinners from an 08-09 squad that finished second in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association
(MIAA), competed in the NCAA Division III tournament and posted a 21-8 season record.
Coach Glenn Van Wieren, who begins his 33rd year at the helm of the Flying Dutchmen, has a team that includes three freshman prospects, four
sophomores, five juniors and two seniors. Van Wieren enters the season
the sixth winningest active Division III coach with 639 victories and a 75% winning percentage.
Tri-captains of the team will be junior forward Will Bowser of Midland (HH Dow HS), junior guard Peter Bunn of Lansing (Lansing Christian HS), and senior forward Chris Nelis of Zeeland (Zeeland East HS). Bunn was named to the All-MIAA second team in 08-09.
Other returning letterwinners include senior guard Scott Jungling of Zee -land (Zee-land West HS), sophomore forward Nathaniel King of Sterling Heights (Henry Ford II HS), sophomore guard David Krombeen of Grand-ville (GrandGrand-ville HS), junior guard Ty Tanis of Jenison (Jenison HS), and junior center Andy Venema of Hudsonville (Tri-Unity Christian HS).
Three players were members of the junior varsity squad a year ago -- junior center Adam Dickerson of Muskegon (Mona Shores HS), sophomore guard
Logan Neil of Holland (West Ottawa HS), and sophomore guard Ryan Ross
of St. Joseph (Michigan Lutheran HS).
Freshman prospects include center Josh Holwerda of Gallup, N.M., guard Jared Mysliweic of Wyoming (Tri-Unity Christian HS), and forward Nate Snuggerud of Zeeland (Zeeland East HS).
The Flying Dutchmen will play eight of their first 11 games at Hope's DeVos
Fieldhouse, including three tournaments -- the MIAA/CCIW Classic (Dec. 4-5), the Holland Sentinel Community Tournament (Dec. 11-12), and the
Russ DeVette Holiday Classic (Dec. 29-30).
Two pre-season Division III polls included the Flying Dutchmen. DIII News placed Hope 11th while D3hoops.com put them in 23rd.

in four seasons at the DeVos Fieldhouse are 62-4.

Coach Glenn Van Wieren
Hope College basketball has thrived under the leadership of Glenn Van Wieren (gvanwieren@hope) who has developed one of the nation's most highly respected NCAA Division III programs.
A product of the Hope basketball program himself, Van Wieren has guided the Flying Dutchmen to a record seven-teen Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) championships and appearances in nineteen NCAA Division III post-season tournaments. The Flying Dutchmen have advanced to the Sweet Sixteen six times and to the Elite Eight four times, and the final four three times, most recently in 2008. Hope finished second in the nation in 1996 and 1998 and was third in 2008.
The 2008-09 Flying Dutchmen posted a 21-8 record to mark a school-record 29th consecutive winning campaign. Hope has won 25 or more games in a season six times under Van Wieren.
On January 12, 2008, Van Wieren became just the sixth coach in NCAA Division III men’s basketball history to achieve 600 victories. His 31-year record after an 80-71 win over Olivet was 600-201. His winning percentage (.749) at that time was the best in this elite coach-ing group. He also has reached 600 victories faster than any other Division III coach (801st game). The previous mark was by Glenn Robinson of Franklin & Marshall who won number 600 in his 821st game. His career record through the 2008-09 season is 639-211.
Van Wieren has coached two teams -- 84-85 and 94-95 -- through unbeaten regular season campaigns. He enters the 2009-10 season ranked the fourth winningest alltime Division III coach by victories (639) and the sixth winningest by percentage (.752).
In 2006 Van Wieren was honored by the Grand Rapids Sports Hall of Fame with the organization's Lifetime Achievement Award. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame of the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan in 2003.
The basketball court in the new DeVos Fieldhouse on Hope's campus is named in honor of coach Van Wieren, his coaching mentot Russ DeVette and their wives, Jacquelyn and Doris.
The publication Basketball Times has twice named Van Wieren its Division III national coach of the year, first in 1995 and again in 2008. He was also voted the 1995 Great Lakes Region Division III coach of the year by the National Association of Basketball Coaches and the 1995 Michigan college basketball coach-of-the-year by the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan.
Van Wieren stands as one of the outstanding athletes in the history of Hope College. A 1964 graduate, he earned 11 letters during his four years at Hope and on four occasions was awarded all-conference honors by the MIAA. He was a four-year letterman in both basketball and baseball and a letterwinner in cross country three seasons. He ranks among the top scorers in Hope basketball history.
While at Hope, Van Wieren has also coached baseball, cross country and soccer. He is among the winningest coaches in America's olderst collegiate conference with a total of 18 MIAA champion-ships. In addition to 16 in basketball, he has coached conference champions in baseball and soccer.
He holds the academic rank of Professor of Kinesiology. Prior to joining the Hope faculty he taught and coached at Grand Haven (Mich.) High School. He holds the M.A. degree from Western Michigan University and the Ed.D. degree from Brigham Young University. He is active in Young Life and is a member of Christ Memorial Church in Holland. He is a member of the board of directors of the Basketball Coaches association of Michigan.
His wife Jacquelyn (Nyboer) is a 1967 Hope College graduate. The Van Wierens have four daughters -- Gretel, Heidi, Kuria and Rebekah, and seven grandchildren.
