Ask a student or faculty member at Brigham Young University – Hawaii what makes the university such an inviting and unique place to study, chances are the answer will resonate in the collegial community found on this campus. The welcoming, accessible, and intimate atmosphere of respect and collaboration here echoes through every classroom, department, and individual. The fervent drive members of the BYUH community share manifests itself in the form of dedicated, progressive, and passionate action.

After 31 years of teaching political science and active faculty participation at BYU-Hawaii, Dr. Dale Robertson retires this month leaving a long line of passionate and appreciative students that have ventured to complete the university's mission. "...[His] biggest legacy will be the number of students whose lives he has personally affected, the number of students who have gone on to do better things, to achieve higher degrees...who have become lawyers or politicians," says Jon Jonassen, a previous student of Dr. Robertson's and current BYU-Hawaii professor.
