Named After:

Jacab Bolt (1875-1967) Christina Bolt (1876-1959): Served as Christian Reformed missionaries to the Navaho people in Crown Point, New Mexico, for 25 years.
Garrett Heyns (1891-1969): Gained national recognition for his dedication to improving prisons in Michigan and Washington. He received Calvin's first distinguished alumni award in 1966.

Claim To Fame:

BHT is closest to the academic buildings (great for late-sleepers). Timmer has traditionally been a women's wing, but was re-purposed for upperclassmen "studio apartments" in 2010.
