“Our latest courses were selected in response to the growing demand for paralegal professionals,” said Carl J. Disalvatore, an adjunct instructor and retired Judge Advocate General’s Corps Colonel. “Our ties with Fort Drum allow U.S. Army soldiers stationed locally to start taking face-to-face courses without commuting. If they chose to continue with the courses in the legal studies program, they can enroll online and earn their four-year degree from anywhere in the world with Internet access.”
