My condolences to Jim’s family. He was one of the professors on my dissertation committee. He was so kind and understanding, while teaching me much at all our meetings. He had just joined the faculty at Temple when he joined my committee. He was a young successful scholar who was focused on his research yet he always had the times to discuss ideas and share his knowledge. I am retiring this year after 38 years as a Marketing faculty member at Rutgers and want to thank Jim for his influence snd contributions to my life. RIP Jim, and Thank you!

Jim was a wonderful colleague and friend and a real pleasure to work with. He always had time for students and faculty, and a story to share. He guided so many students over the years and influenced so many to pursue their studies of marketing. We are all so saddened by this news. My deepest condolences to his family.

Jim was the best. Not only did he share so much of his knowledge about consumer behavior with me, he was an inspiration to do research that made an actual impact on the human condition. He was the one I always went to when I needed ideas because his knowledge of social psychology was like a well-organized textbook. Not only did he help me immensely on my dissertation, we went on to write a number of papers together. Even after he retired from his scholarly life we still enjoyed getting together and talking about things, often at one of his favorite Hatboro hangouts. There was no one like Jim at the Fox School, he was truly one-of-a-kind. And while he is no longer with us, Jim will always be with me without any doubt.

I am very sad to hear about Dr. Hunt’s passing. He was one of my favorite professors at Temple University and a member of my dissertation committee. His passion for consumer behavior was part of the reason I ended up doing consumer research. I can still picture his smile and laughter when he got excited about a consumer behavior theory while telling a story that illustrates it. Stopping by his open door office always lifted my mood and spirits. My warmest condolences to his family and friends ❤️

My condolences to all Jim's loved ones and friends. I feel blessed to have known Jim . As his colleague at Temple, we had so many lunches together in the collaboration room and chats in the hallway, and I saw how he valued his colleagues, his students and his profession. He loved telling stories and talking about consumer behavior theory. His enthusiasm was catching when he talked about his family, the high school marching band and swim team, bird watching, or his latest ideas. He took some ribbing sometimes for being an absent minded professor, but could also give as much as he got. His sly smile and kindness will always be remembered.

I met Jim when I returned as an instructor to FOX in 2001; his passion and his energy for students was inspiring. Over the years, we would collaborate on many projects, notably his work sustaining and building the M.S. program in the Marketing Department. Once we moved into Alter Hall, he became my nextdoor neighbor and this allowed me a little glimpse into his very generous nature; he would spend hours with PhD and MS students discussing their projects, thesis, research and have so many recommendations and suggestions for them they often left his office (a little overwhelmed) but inspired. He had a similar passion working with our UG students; he held students to standards, but was compassionate and patient as students came looking for support. He wanted everyone to be successful and we would marshall the direction and details to help this happen. Jim also sheparded the UG internship program in the department, moving it from a rather unstructured experience to one that had rigor and focused on student learning outcomes, all the time ensuring students were recognizing the development of (hard) skills, but also workplace cultural competence. I hope I can be as influential with my students as Jim was to his students.
