Governor Mike Parson visited the Lee Summit Missouri Innovation Campus on March 2. Jeff Danley from VMLY&R led Parson through a presentation of the virtual reality demonstration. "I enjoy bringing in people into virtual reality to help introduce them to new experiences and show what the possibilities are for virtual reality," Danley said. "With the governor, hopefully it helped him understand how we can use virtual reality in a classroom environment and how that’s going to better prepare students here at UCM for the future workforce."
