From learning about academic programs to touring the beautiful campus, they got an inside look at what life could be like as a Lander Bearcat. Thanks to everyone who made the visit informative and inspiring—who knows, maybe we'll see some of these students back on campus soon! #FutureBearcats #LanderUniversity #CollegeBound
