Whitman students study hard, but they also know how to have fun, which can often involve climbing onto the roofs of any and all buildings around campus. This can be a potentially dangerous ambition.

When Whitman junior Fernando Medina saw a need for tutors in the Walla Walla area, he knew he wanted to something about it. This past summer he founded Valley Tutoring, a local business which employs Whitman students and graduates as tutors and seeks to help provide educational assistance to Walla Walla students from kindergarten subjects to introductory college level courses.
