Tim Whittum

Vice President for Enrollment

Where are you from?
I was born in Tennessee but my family moved cross country a few times during my schooling years. I've called New Hampshire home for the last 20 years or so.

Do you have a favorite place in Tacoma?
Is it too obvious to say our campus? That is absolutely my favorite place so far, though I have found a few local restaurants and coffee shops that are rising in the ranks.

Name a class at Puget Sound you’re interested in but haven’t taken yet.
Fitness and physical health have been a passion of mine for a while. The Sport Nutrition and Ergogenic Aids course in our Exercise Science program is definitely a course that would interest me!

What is a book that has been influential for you?
Oh wow. This is a tough one as I am a big reader. Stephen King's The Stand and Terry Brooks' The Sword of Shannara trilogy are two that immediately come to mind and had a big influence on the genres I read the most today.
