In a room with no fireplace, UM President Seth Bodnar held a virtual ‘Fireside Chat’ with ZOOM participants on Wednesday evening.

Bodnar joined us live on Montana Talks to chat about the message he is hearing from high school students looking to attend college. Plus, we talked about his mid-year campus update, and of course that epic half court shot.

"Sold-out crowd. Rivalry win. Marriage proposal. Half-court shot from President Bodnar. Last night had it all!"

He's a West Point grad, a green beret, and the President of The University of Montana. And now he is the newest officer sworn in to the Montana Army National Guard. UM President Seth Bodnar joined Aaron Flint recently on our statewide radio show Montana Talks. Click below for the audio:

Following the initial discussion that began on Tuesday regarding the recommended changes at UM’s Mountain Campus, President Bodnar announced a new effort to redesign the Missoula College and the Lifelong Learning opportunities.

Hellgate High School senior Ian Knight was honored on Tuesday at City Hall for winning the Grand Prize in the U.S. State Department’s nationwide 2017 Citizen Diplomacy Challenge for a photo entitled ‘Unity’.

On Monday evening, the activist group Missoula Rises presented a forum called ‘Tackling Sexism’ which featured several UM officials including football coach Bobby Hauck, UM President Seth Bodnar and Athletic Director Kent Haslam.

Adams message to UM President: "He is ruling over a campus that has been overtaken by petulant children who lose all semblance of emotional control when confronted with a contrary opinion."

On Monday, February 26, the activist group Missoula Rises will be hosting a panel discussion at the Wilma Theater entitled ‘Tackling a Culture of Sexism’.

This is probably the last person you would expect to be named as the new president of The University of Monana. He's not only a green beret with private sector experience, but he's also under the age of 40.
