WATERVILLE, May 21--Thomas College will host a group from Rotary International's group study exchange program on Friday, May 21. The group consists of four German professionals who specialize in the fields of marketing, communications, sales, product management and research. They are led by Waterville's Raffi DerSimonian, who has recently returned to Waterville after a month-long Rotary International vocational exchange in Germany.

The group will meet with Thomas' Strategic Marketing Committee (SMC), made up of representatives from Admissions/Enrollment Management, Graduate and Continuing Education, Public Relations/Institutional Advancement and Marketing Faculty. With three of the four members of the exchange group being in the fields of marketing and communications, the interest in how these areas are handled at Thomas seemed a great topic for an international exchange of ideas. "I thought that this could be an interesting and educational opportunity for them to learn about how one of our region's top educational institutions approaches these elements," says DerSimonian.

The group will have the opportunity to learn about Thomas College as an institution, and then participate in a presentation from members of Thomas' SMC. They will also be treated to a campus tour and picnic lunch.
