WATERTOWN, Mass., June 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- This week, hundreds of the nation's higher education leaders have converged in the Seaport District for the 2019 Liaison User Conference.

Citing the city's "rich history" of fostering higher education and the importance of these institutions' "recruitment, selection and nurturing processes," Mayor Walsh today formally proclaimed, "Higher Ed Admissions Hero Day on June 28, 2019 will recognize and celebrate all those who work to build their institutions' future classes."
