Dr. Cindy Handley
Associate Teaching Professor
Bio
My name is Cindy Handley, PhD, MLS(ASCP)CM but my students sometimes call me Dr C. I have taught at the University of Southern Mississippi for 9 years but I've been in education for over 30 years. My academic experience includes teaching in two small community colleges and two major universities. I love seeing the light bulb come on in students who get a new concept. I especially like working with students in difficult situations to help them achieve academic success. I currently teach face to face as well as online. My basic philosophy about education is that it should be enjoyable and stimulating, but it also involves rote memorization and learning the basics (I call this pouring concrete - laying the foundation).
