Agreed. Kind of a lengthy article, but well written. I liked the part where they were discussing a STEM program. Quick question, did it say that Bodnar was trying to add a STEM program, or were just trying to do more then what we are now?bgbigdog said:[tweet]https://twitter.com/grizfannews/status/963771189314441219[/tweet]
Thought this was well done.

But all of those were done by leadership who had no idea how to do it.....young dude from GE is gonna be light years ahead of the previous attempts.
griz4life said:UM is still the last in state university to make contact with Montana high school students. It's not only behind MSU, It's behind out of state schools. MSU is getting to Montana students before junior year. If your kid is good at math or science, MSU is on it. If your kid is interested in a science major, MSU will give you a $500 tuition break day one.
UM might not get to that same student until sometime senior year. No tuition break.
No one is deciding which university to attend because of Bobby Hauck. That's stupid.
Absolutely. I know some people sneer, but Boise State is the "poster child" for the truth of this statement. As I said a-ways back (with numbers) on another thread, UI, UM and MSU better be watching their rear-view mirrors because BSU is making huge strides in roping in research dollars. That's mostly based on recruitment of powerhouse STEM faculty. And that has gone along with a major growth in graduate (mostly STEM) enrollment. If Bodner wants a blueprint, he might well look at MSU, but he should also look at how BSU charged ahead under a wide-awake president.bgbigdog said:Good athletic programs have a positive impact on school attendance.

True, in the Spokane area Gonzaga has seen the student population increase as a result of the successful hoops program and enrollment at eastern has increased since the 2010 football championship (being the lowest priced 4 year school in the state may help as well).bgbigdog said:griz4life said:UM is still the last in state university to make contact with Montana high school students.
