DiGiulio Named 2025 Dean’s Eminent Scholar for the Humanities

Dr. Scott J. DiGiulio, associate professor in Mississippi State University’s Department of Classical and Modern Languages and Literatures, received the 2025 Gulmon Dean’s Eminent Scholar Award for the Humanities at the October College of Arts & Sciences faculty meeting.

The Dean’s Eminent Scholar designation recognizes faculty whose research has gained national visibility and strengthens the academic reputation of the College. The award includes a three-year term and dedicated funding to support continued research and creative work.

Department Head Robert West noted DiGiulio’s broad impact: “Dr. DiGiulio’s teaching and service contributions to the ‘classics’ concentration are enormous, and he engages in a great deal of other activity in service to the department, college and his discipline beyond our campus. On top of that, he has a truly remarkable record of research productivity.”

The department proudly congratulates Dr. DiGiulio on this well-earned honor.
