LTC James Corbin, an alumnus of UNG’s PSIA Department, began his new role as Director of Development for the Corps of Cadets, starting September 1, 2020. Corbin graduated from UNG with a B.A. in Political Science and a minor in Leadership. After he graduated, he immediately went into active duty, where he was deployed three times in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom as a platoon leader, S4, and Company Commander. In 2013, Corbin transitioned into the National Guard, where he currently serves in the G3. The G3 focuses on how you train, mobilize, equip and provide forces for all of the various operations needed all over the state and all over the world. He was recently called upon in support of the state’s COVID response and once again to protect the protesters and property of civilians during this uncertain time. Corbin notes that National Guard Soldiers have dual status that allows them to called up for domestic response but also overseas in a federal role to places like Afghanistan, Iraq, all over the world. Corbin has also been sent to The Kingdom of Jordan and the Republic of Georgia during his time in the National Guard. The Director of Development is the chief fundraising person for the Corps of Cadets. His job is to look for people who will participate “to contribute time, treasure, testimony and talent. The Corps is a special part of what makes North Georgia unique; it creates military leaders, government leaders and business leaders every day.” LTC Corbin holds an M.S. in Global and International Education from Drexel University, a B.A. in Political Science from UNG, and is a graduate of the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College.
