Wilson was nominated by the HPJ Department and the letter sent to Ohio Magazine read in part:

"Jimmy Wilson combines excellence in the classroom with service to students, the university, and his community. He encourages undergraduates to attend professional conferences where many present papers. In cooperation with the College of Business Administration, he helped initiate an Entrepreneurship Poster Competition, which allowed students to present innovative ideas. He enthusiastically shares his expertise in GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and his gumbo secrets. He created maps to aid our Admissions Office's recruiting efforts. He even mapped the annual Lincoln Highway Yard Sales locations for the Community Iprovement Corporation. Jimmy has had a significant impact on ONU and Ada."
