Four cadets at the University of North Georgia (UNG) have received an educational delay, which is awarded through a highly competitive process, from Army Cadet Command to pursue advanced degrees when they graduate in May 2022.

  • Hunter Cavanaugh is pursuing a degree in kinesiology with a concentration in health and fitness from UNG. After graduation, the Elberton, Georgia, resident will pursue a Doctor of Physical Therapy out of state.
  • Charles Fuller is pursuing a degree in kinesiology with a concentration in health and fitness from UNG. The Newnan, Georgia, resident has been accepted to the Doctor of Physical Therapy program at Brenau University.
  • Alexander Haller is pursuing a degree in psychology from UNG. The Lawrenceville, Georgia, resident aims to attend Auburn University to pursue a Ph.D. in clinical psychology.
  • Daniel J. Stuart is also pursuing a degree in kinesiology with a concentration in health and fitness from UNG. The Huntsville, Alabama, resident plans to pursue a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree.

"We are proud of these cadets seeking additional education that will allow them to better serve their fellow soldiers once they become Army officers," Lt. Col. Wesley Pirkle, executive officer and director of instruction in UNG's military science department, said.
