"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

More than 200 University of Montana faculty members took part in the national 2004-05 Higher Education Research Institute Survey and the results show that teaching is a primary value and focus at UM.

Ninety percent of UM faculty members reported teaching is their principal activity compared to 75.4 percent at other public universities.

UM faculty members emphasize as primary goals for undergraduates to develop abilities to think critically, promote writing abilities and prepare students for employment.
More than 90 percent of UM faculty members said promoting students’ effective writing ability is a very important or essential goal. Many expressed a concern about the lack of basic preparedness of undergraduate students.
