Recruiting office aims to draw Chicago teens to Mount Pleasant

(NOTE: This article originally appeared in the March 4, 2009 edition of Central Michigan Life.)

Central Michigan University is not a household name for youth in inner city Chicago.

Michael Hull is looking to change that.

Hull, an assistant director of admissions, is the head CMU’s new Greater Chicago Outreach center.

“We find a lot of students want to get away from the city to go to college,” he said. “Mount Pleasant is the perfect town for college.”
