I have read a few articles as I was searching for a solution. They all seemed to favor a hard-coded or HTML Helper alternative; however, I wanted something simple and database driven. This is my best solution (submitted as an answer, by me).

    Just pass a TempData down from one of your controllers like this:

    TempData("CurrentPage") = "Nutrition"

    Then, in your View add a conditional like this:

    <ul>

@For Each item In Model
    Dim currentItem = item

    If (Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(TempData("CurrentPage")) And TempData("CurrentPage") = currentItem.NAV_Element) Then
        @<li><a class="current" href="@Html.DisplayFor(Function(modelItem) currentItem.NAV_Destination)">@Html.DisplayFor(Function(modelItem) currentItem.NAV_Element)</a></li>

    Else
        @<li><a href="@Html.DisplayFor(Function(modelItem) currentItem.NAV_Destination)">@Html.DisplayFor(Function(modelItem) currentItem.NAV_Element)</a></li>
    End If


Next

</ul>
