Donald A. and Candice G. Wyckoff
Don Wyckoff attended Idaho State University at different points of his life in pursuit of graduate studies. During those times, he benefited from the supportive relationships of faculty. He worked full-time at Simplot and later for the State Crime Lab while simultaneously pursuing his degree paths. Mike Lineberry was an Engineering faculty member who encouraged and supported Don by adjusting as needed when Don could not be present due to unanticipated work obligations, while Don was leading the Idaho State Police Crime Laboratory.
Impact
This endowment is being created by Don and his wife, Candie, (also a graduate of ISU), to help provide support and encouragement for future students pursuing their degrees and to honor the legacy of Mike Lineberry. The naming of this scholarship recognizes the dedication and compassion of special faculty members like Mike who make meaningful differences in the lives of ISU students and help students complete their studies despite obstacles they may experience.
