Dear Faculty and Staff, 

We encourage you all to participate in as many orientation activities as possible to help build strong relationships and connections with our students that will lead to more positive recruitment and retention outcomes. Please read through the following orientation events and select a few to attend. 

If you are interested in helping students move into the residence halls please visit the Orientation webpage and fill out the Montana Western Moving Company (MWMC) form. This is a great way to welcome new students on behalf of the campus and community of Dillon.

As we receive sign-ups for the activities below, we will contact you with further instructions. Thank you for helping us welcome our students to Montana Western! 

Please visit the Orientation webpage for more information about each event. If you have any questions, please contact Mike Piazzola at [email protected] or 406-683-7565.
