Saint Anselm College

Coming to the Hilltop in 1992, Dr. Peter Cordella is a Professor and the Department Chair for the Criminal Justice program here at Saint Anselm. Cordella has been instrumental in launching the College’s first-ever master’s degree program. Several current Hawks student-athletes will graduate in May 2021 and enter the 4+1 criminal justice graduate program this summer.

“Talking with student-athletes about their experiences on the field as well as their experiences in the classroom gives me a fuller and more nuanced understanding of who they are as a person,” says Cordella, who serves as a mentor to over 50 student-athletes majoring in Criminal Justice.
