Karen Tyler, a Wainwright Real Estate Agent, gladly supports the military with her continued sponsorship of the USO of Hampton Roads and Central Virginia.

I consider it an honor and pleasure to assist my customers, especially members of the military community with their homeownership needs, whether buying or selling. I am committed to helping our military members decide between living in the barracks, military housing or buying the home of their dreams.  I detail my strategy to your personal hopes and needs.  I am absolutely thrilled to work with you, and enjoy assisting with every step of the way.  Most of my clients joke about the fact that I must work about 22 hours a day in order to meet their needs!  I do what I can!

In addition to being dedicated and diligent, I specialize in land research and acquisition, locating lots for new construction, as well as helping Investors build their portfolios.  Call me, I can’t wait to meet you and help you make your home ownership dreams come true…. www.simonhouses.com/Tyler

The USO of Hampton Roads and Central VA proudly announce Saint Leo University’s Sponsorship

Saint Leo University’s support of the military and military families literally reaches back generations. Saint Leo, while still a college and not yet a university, first established a teaching center at Navy Center South Hampton Roads in 1974. This center included three full-time teaching locations and eight additional registration/classroom sites. The first commencement––for one graduate–– was held in the admiral’s office.

Today, Saint Leo University continues to offers classes at Naval Station Norfolk, NAS Oceana, Joint Expeditionary Base – Little Creek – Fort Story, Fort Lee, Fort Eustis, Langley, and our civilian location in Chesapeake. A new office will open in spring 2012 in Newport News. Now, Saint Leo has 3,000 students from Virginia studying with the university at any given time. Degree programs offered include associate degrees in business administration, criminal justice, and liberal arts. Bachelor’s degree offerings are available in: business administration (with several different specializations), criminal justice, human resource management, computer information systems, health care management, psychology, religion, sociology, and liberal studies. In addition, students who have completed their undergraduate degree may elect to enroll in the Master’s of Criminal Justice, Master’s of Theology, or MBA.  Saint Leo University offers many different delivery methods including but not limited to classroom, online, blended, video teleconferencing technology, and virtual classrooms.

Saint Leo has responded to the financial aid needs of our students as well. The Dr. Jack Callan Scholarship was established in 1995 specifically for the wife of an active duty service member attending classes at the South Hampton Roads center, and several other privately funded scholarships directed toward military personnel or their family members. The university is proud to have the opportunity now to become a USO sponsor.
