In 1989 Marc Fleisher forever changed the future of the NBA when he brought the first wave of European players to the League (Divac, Marciulionis and Volkov). He has negotiated hundreds of contracts for professional basketball players in the NBA, Europe and other countries throughout the world.

The Denison Advantage
We call it “the Denison Advantage.”
At Denison, you get a liberal arts education, plus pragmatic skills for the workplace. Employers want people who can assess a situation, ask probing questions, research the issue and propose solutions. They also want you to know how to master an excel sheet, manage a meeting, and budget your time. Students in every major learn these critical skills. It’s our secret sauce, and we’ve got the data to prove it.
