Why Missoula College Needs a New Building

• The Missoula College East Campus was originally built for 700 students. MC enrollment now tops 2,500.
• In the past 10 years, Missoula College has the highest growth rate of full-time equivalent students of any two-year college in Montana — at 120 percent.
• The existing Missoula College East Campus facilities are outdated, small and nowhere near what today’s students expect from a UM education.
• Having students and faculty in temporary trailers, no matter how well constructed by UM students, is unacceptable.
• MC must be more fully integrated into the University, both for practical reasons of delivering cost-effective services to our students and for maximizing educational opportunities for students and faculty.

 Imagine what this outstanding college could do with an outstanding building.
