James Harsey

---

James Harsey, originally from Milledgeville, GA (Baldwin High School) graduated in Spring 2021 with a double major in Paralegal Studies (now Professional Legal Studies) and Political Science. He chose to study Paralegal Studies at WKU because the course work applies to both law school and the legal field in general. James believes that the Department of Political Science has "prepared him for his future by teaching skills that apply to the real world with a particular emphasis on improving his writing". While at WKU, he gained practical experience through an internship with Bowling Green law firm Dennie Hardin & Associates. James was recognized as an Outstanding Senior in Paralegal Studies Award and is currently employed as a paralegal by the Tennessee School Board Association.
