In recognizing O'Donnell, Kuster wrote, "First a professor, now a friend - Jim O'Donnell has for a long time been interested in seeing students and colleagues seek a closer relationship with Christ. Quick to move beyond the typical exchange as you might pass a person on the street - 'How ya doing?,' 'Fine, you?,' 'Fine'- without losing a step, Jim wants to hear the real answer and takes the time to listen. As a humble journey-man, Jim walks along with me and encourages me to deepen my walk with Christ, helps to bear my burdens, and is refreshingly interested in helping me to develop as a person, husband, and professional. I appreciate Jim's encouragement."
