Visiting University of Montana professors (including President George Dennison) give Mercer Island High School students a taste of college

Most colleges send their marketing or admissions staff to meet with prospective students at high schools. In an unprecedented recruiting move, the University of Montana http://www.umt.edu did not just send its regular group of students and administrators to talk with students about coming to their school. They sent their own president.

University of Montana (UM) president George Dennison came to Mercer Island High School last Friday, Feb. 5, as part of a trip to western Washington to meet with alumni, prospective students and their parents. Yet, Mercer Island High School was the only high school they visited.

Accompanying Dennison from Missoula, Mont.were a couple of prominent faculty members who guest-taught classes at the high school.
