An Invitation from Chancellor Richard Storey
Greetings from the campus of the University of Montana Western in Dillon, Mont.
Montana Western is Montana’s educational gem. Please allow me to explain.
A class of its own
This is an exceptional place to live, learn and earn a degree. Our faculty and staff are truly dedicated to students and the institutional mission of experiential learning as practiced through Experience One (X1), our innovative model of delivering classes one at a time. In 2005, Montana Western became the first American public university to fully implement a block scheduling program. Under this system students take, and faculty teach, one course during a block lasting three and a half weeks followed by a four-day break between blocks.
