2016 Inductee Robert (Bob) Burns made a massive impact on the State of South Dakota and joined Miles Beacom to talk about his legacy in higher education.

During the last decade of his tenure at SDSU, he served as the first Dean of the SDSU Honors College while continuing his teaching and department head duties.
