Completed applications and references are due by midnight on Monday, April 13, 2026. Steele Endowed Scholarship The Archie A. and Kathryn Thomason Steele Endowed Scholarship is for women who fit the following criteria: successful cross-cultural mission experience (preferably at least four years), whether as homemaker or employee; academic excellence; acceptance into one of Andrews University's graduate programs; spiritual commitment; financial need and eligibility as established by the University's financial aid policy. Each applicant must provide two recommendations, one of which should be from a mission administrator well acquainted with the applicant's mission service, the other from a faculty member within the student's discipline or a pastor familiar with the student. General Empowering Journeys Committee (EJC) Scholarships The general EJC Scholarship application is for women working on a graduate degree in any of the University schools. General applications will be considered for several different named scholarships (which have their own criteria—e.g., must be: a Seminary student, a School of Education student in educational or counseling psychology, or a student working on a music degree, etc.), as well as the more general WSC Advisory Scholarship and Honored Women Scholarship. To give general applicants the best chance to receive an award, the committee will determine which scholarship best fits the applicant. Along with the application form, students will need to request letters of recommendation from two different individuals (either from two professors or a professor and pastor or work supervisor). The letters of recommendation should include the professor/supervisor's assessment of the worthiness of the applicant in terms of scholarship, work habits and the likelihood that the student will meet her goals. Scholarship Funds Scholarship funds awarded will be applied toward tuition for the 2026–27 school year. Successful applicants will be notified of their awards via email by June 1, 2026. Awardees will also be invited to the EJC’s fall brunch and will be honored at that event.

The program, titled “A Legacy of Care and Compassion,” will feature brothers Loren and Lowell Hamel. Born in Michigan, and with deep roots in the Andrews University community, the twins have made a significant impact on their local church and community. Growing up in a strong faith environment, both Loren and Lowell were called to serve their community of Berrien Springs, Michigan, as physicians. In 1976, both graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Andrews University. After attending Loma Linda University in California, they felt called back to Southwest Michigan to build and grow the community they grew up in. Both have worked to meet the health care needs of their community for more than 35 years, as primary care physicians and hospital administrators. For many years, Loren served as president and chief strategy officer and Lowell served as chief operating officer of Corewell Health (formerly Spectrum Health). Both Loren and Lowell have invested in the Andrews University community over the years. In 1990, they practiced medicine together at the University Medical Center on campus. Additionally, Loren Hamel has served as director of Student Health Services, clinical professor of nursing, president of the Alumni Association, chair of the J.N. Andrews Sculpture Committee, and member of the Board of Trustees and several of its subcommittees. The "Legends of Michiana" documentary series highlights people and organizations that have been influential to the growth and development of the Michiana area.
