Dorsey & Whitney - An International business law firm, applying a business perspective to clients' needs in Missoula, Montana and beyond.

Although Sharon Alexander, dean of University of Montana Continuing Education, doesn’t know the exact number for this semester, she said most students enrolled in online courses at UM are those who live in Missoula and also take classes on campus.

“I think it would be safe to say that we have much larger plans,” Alexander said.

The top priority for Online Services http://www.umt.edu/xls/umonline/ , she said, is essentially to reach out to the people who are not taking advantage of online courses now – those who are interested in getting a college degree but who can’t come to campus for some reason.

“We know we’re serving these students, but not completely yet,” said Keith Lynip, the director of UM Online Services.
