Distinguished Advising Award Donna Huddleston
Huddleston joined the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice in 1996. She
is the primary point of contact on advising questions for more than 400 majors and
has served more than1,000 students during her career here, in addition to teaching
two courses each semester. In spite of that heavy load, she reserves to time to speak
to each of them individually at least once a semester, and is in contact with many
of them on an almost weekly basis. Huddleston has an open-door policy during the day
and will schedule time on weekends or evenings to accommodate students whose work
schedules do not permit them to come to campus during normal business hours. Students
compliment her knowledge, availability, and kindness. Said one student, “Donna is
a wonderful advisor. She was always there for me when I needed her, even in non-school
related issues. She is a very kind and polite woman who touched my life. I’ll never
forget her.” Another noted, “She knows all of her advisees and she will bend over
backwards to help you with any school problems or personal ones.”
