Collyn Schmidt

Collyn Schmidt

For generations of Covenant students, Rudy and Collyn Schmidt are iconic figures of the College. Sacrificially serving the Lord at Covenant has always been as natural to them as breathing. Rudy was the College registrar from the beginning and Collyn held many titles over the years including dean of women, college nurse, and head of housekeeping. A multitude of Covenant students have been cared for by the Schmidts, and some are students whose parents were first at Covenant during the '60s, '70s and '80s. Rudy went home to the Lord in 2005, and Collyn continues to give of herself and her resources. To hear a ScotsCast of Collyn talking about the early days at Covenant and why she still continues to give, visit covenant.edu/Collyn.
