By the time he reached high school, Dow Tate was already a contributor to his local newspaper. That’s how much he was meant to work in journalism.

Dow is now the publications adviser at Shawnee Mission East in Prairie Village, Kansas. Jim named him the May Adviser of Note, and it's difficult to imagine someone more deserving.

Dow's students speak highly of him, and his staffs have won many awards.
