In Memorium
Julie Staton
Julie was a second generation OSU student (Go Pokes!) completing her PhD in Developmental
and Family Science. She married her high school sweetheart and they have two amazing
children. She worked with children and families for over 20 years and loved working
with Early Childhood teachers as well. Julie enjoyed getting to know families in our
area and being able to connect with them each year through her work in the CAD Lab.
The Human Development and Family Science department has established an award in Julie's
memory, the Julie Branch Staton Outstanding Graduate Student Award. It will be awarded
each year to a student who embodies the character, service, and academic excellence
that Julie displayed each day during her career at OSU.
