I just graduated from Law School and the things i learned from Dr Tatum helped through the rest of my educational journey. He was my inspiration and even after my BA degree he was always there for me with advice, letters of recommendation, and encouragement. I thank God daily for him and his influences on my life/

Of all the classes at BYU-Idaho Brother Tatum was the best! He inspired me to go on a mission and now 10 years later I'm going to graduate school. After all this time he remembered me and wrote 6 letters of reference for me that helped me to get admitted, He is my Hero in a big way. No one cares as much as he does. My favorite prof ever.

Comment:
Looking back ,Taterman was my favorite because he really cared about me and the rest of the students. Because of his background he brought the stuff we talked about in class to life and made it real and applicable to real life. He treats his students life adults and not his "pal" life some of the other teachers do and he doesn't play mind games

This is a long time coming. Yesterday I graduated from grad school. I would have never made it without Dr. Tatum. His classes prepared me. His example inspired me. His mentoring and coaching kept me going long after I left BYU-I. Anyone going to BYU-I will benefit from hisclasses regardless of their major. Thanks Dr. Tatum

My favorite teacher at BYU-Idaho. He cared and helped me realize the best that is in me. He teaches with vision and inspires. Too bad there aren't more teachers like him. He made me a better person.

The only real university class I've taken in a place where many classes are group work and mumbo jumbo and touchy feely. My favorite so far.

Excellent teacher and class. Has a unique way of grading. It is very fair in that it allows free expression and interpretation of the material, but it is also very demanding - but one thing that important - you will learn lots. He is one of my favorites. As Tatum says XLNT!

Excellent Teacher, loves the material, expects a lot from students. One of the most time consuming and informative classes for coursework. It's hard but you learn a ton. Teacher willing to work with any student on any assignment. Teacher meets during any office hours, will work around any family or medical emergencies you may have.
