Default Formatting User1 Field to MM/DD/YY?

I just recently imported an Excel sheet with all my contacts into Outlook for
better management. I have a couple date columns that I need to keep in
Outlook, for at a glance tracking of when I last talked to the person, and my
follow-up date. When I used the field map, I mapped my spreadsheet date
columns to User1 and User2. When I'm in the column view of Outlook, my dates
are displayed as example:

2006-11-15 00:00:00

I want it in MM/DD/YY format.

When I right click and format the column, the only option I have to select
is Text. The spreadsheet was formatted Date.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks!!!
