    Nate Patterson UNG '16

    my name is nate patterson
    and i am the core legacy recruitment
    network coordinator
    for ung i get to do primarily
    out-of-state recruiting
    so i work mostly out of the southeast
    region and some of the west
    coast states and on top of that i work
    with all of our alumni
    i started the corps in 2013 january 2013
    and i graduated in 2016. so i commanded
    hotel company
    i was in charge of 85 cadets 24 7 which
    was a large responsibility
    and i was also a member of the national
    guard while i was in school
    so i enlisted to help pay for my
    education
    and then went on to actually get a
    scholarship for my last two years
    so when i graduated i got a degree in
    international affairs
    with a focus in the middle east so while
    i was here i learned how to speak arabic
    i had the chance to study abroad in
    morocco for two months which i never
    thought i would have been able to do but
    the cadet program helped
    pay for that so i was very thankful for
    that and that fit perfectly
    into what i wanted to do in the army
    which was military intelligence so i
    became a military intelligence officer
    in the georgia army national guard so i
    do
    intelligence work part-time on the
    weekends and full-time i'm working for
    north georgia with the overall
    experience and just how it challenged me
    to really
    you know whittle away the bad habits and
    bring in all the good
    ones i feel like really did set me up
    for success
    later on in my current position at the
    school as well as my job in the army as
    an intelligence officer
    where attention to detail is everything
    and the information that i provide my
    commander impacts decisions
    of hundreds of soldiers down the road
    so i'm confident in what i do now
    because i was given that confidence
    through north georgia
    and being a cadet while i was here
