UM, Wildlife Friendly Enterprise Network Launch Elephant-Friendly Tea

June 29, 2017

MISSOULA – The University of Montana’s Broader Impacts Group has partnered with the Wildlife Friendly Enterprise Network to launch the world’s first tea certification program designed to protect the endangered Asian elephant.

UM showcased the project during the World Tea Expo held this month in Las Vegas. The new farm-to-cup program engages tea growers, sellers and consumers to help conserve Elephas maximus.

Over the past 75 years, the Asian elephant population has declined more than 50 percent http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/062917elep.php[1/23/2018 10:10:36 AM] UM, Wildlife Friendly Enterprise Network Launch Elephant-Friendly Tea - UM News - University Of Montana

and only 40,000 to 50,000 remain, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources.

Much of the decline correlates with human-elephant conflict and the replacement of elephant habitat by tea plantations. Although the plantations can serve as nurseries for females to give birth and rest until their newborns are strong enough to move with the herd, agricultural practices such as deep and narrow drainage ditches, improperly installed electric fencing and the chemicals used in conventional tea production can harm elephants.

“We are encouraged by the interest we are seeing from tea growers and buyers who want to join the Certified Elephant Friendly Tea partnership,” said Lisa Mills, UM liaison for the project. “With a percentage of every sale going back to support elephant conservation in the communities where the tea is grown, tea drinkers can directly support human-elephant co-existence.”

Certified tea producers commit to reducing the negative impacts to elephant populations, and the first plantation became certified in Assam, India, this spring. Tea Company and Café Dolce in Missoula are the first businesses to carry Certified Elephant Friendly Tea.

Certified Elephant Friendly Tea also will link conservation action to a science-based evaluation of impacts on elephant populations.

“We are working with scientists at UM and in India to determine how implementation of elephant-friendly practices will actually help reverse the declining trajectory of Asian elephant populations,” Mills said.

UM’s Broader Impacts Group is part of the Office of Research and Creative Scholarship, dedicated to helping researchers meaningful and sustainable impacts within communities. In addition to partnership with WFEN on the project, support also is provided by the Blackstone LaunchPad, the School of Business Administration and the Wildlife Biology Program at UM.

Last Best Conference Returns to Missoula, Adds Live Music, Film to Lineup

June 29, 2017

MISSOULA – Renowned national speakers, workshops led by local business leaders, and – new this year – live music and film packages are all part of the Last Best Conference coming to the Wilma Theater on Thursday and Friday, Aug. 3-4.

Dubbed “LBCon” and hosted by founding partners MonTEC, the University of Montana and Missoula Federal Credit Union, the Last Best Conference will highlight entrepreneurial spirit, blossoming culture and a shared love for Montana. The conference, the first of its kind in the state, aims to bolster regional innovation. Keynote speakers include leaders from Portland, Oregon; Santa Monica, ; Boise, Idaho; and beyond.

Adding to the excitement and value this year, LBCon partnered http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/062917last.php[1/23/2018 10:10:41 AM] Last Best Conference Returns to Missoula, Adds Live Music, Film to Lineup - UM News - University Of Montana

with Missoula’s Wilma and Roxy theaters to provide music and film packages to conference attendees.

“Conference goers will have the chance to see top-notch music and film this year,” said Morgan Slemberger, LBCon director. “Musicians such as Shooter Jennings, James McMurtry and the Tedeschi Trucks Band, and films such as ‘Charged’ by Phillip Baribeau and ‘Lester Leaps In’ by Mike Stienberg, will be part of this year’s event.”

Slemberger worked during the past year to enhance the conference experience for participants.

“We are incredibly lucky to have dedicated community partners for the Last Best Conference in our second year,” she said. “These new offerings of music and film passes really set the stage for a more South by Southwest experience, with a Missoula twist.”

LBCon tickets are on sale now at www.lastbastconference.com for $179 through Friday, June 30, and then for $199 through Friday, July 28. These tickets include all main-stage sessions and commemorative LBCon swag. Separate packages, including Conference + Music, Conference + Film and Trifecta (Conference, Music and Film) passes also are available online.

According to the Kauffman Foundation, Montana tops the nation for highest startup activity. Spurred by this recognition, breakout sessions called LBCon Academies – which are led by local leaders in business, the arts and academia – also will be open to participants starting Wednesday, Aug. 2. Academy topics range from using creativity to change your business and the world to creating original living and learning spaces that foster innovation.

Breakout sessions will happen around the city, showcasing the downtown area and unique cultural hubs like the Wilma and the Roxy. Sessions also can be streamed online through Gatherboard, a software company led by Missoula entrepreneurs Molly Bradford and Colin Hickey. Academy tickets are available separately for $49 per session.

“After living in Portland, Oregon, for the past several years, it was amazing to come back to Missoula and see all the incredible startup activity,” said Kristi Govertson, a Missoula-based entrepreneur, speaker and author who volunteers on LBCon’s planning committee. “The values of LBCon are creativity, courage and community, and I think building up our regional connections through LBCon will only enhance Montana’s growing reputation as the last best place to start a company or creative endeavor.”

What makes LBCon unconventional are the participant-driven breakout sessions that occur between keynote speakers, Govertson said. Participants’ interests guide which breakout sessions they attend, and often the sessions have the feeling of an impromptu “water cooler” conversation among colleagues rather than a formal presentation, she said.

More information, including a complete schedule and lineup of speakers, musicians and films, is online at www.lastbestconference.com.

UM Research: Slow-Growing Ponderosas Survive Mountain Pine Beetle Outbreaks

June 28, 2017

MISSOULA – Slow-growing ponderosa pines may have a better chance of surviving mountain pine beetle outbreaks in western Montana as climate change increases the frequency of drought and insect pests, according to new research published by a team of University of Montana scientists.

The team of researchers, led by UM biological sciences Professor Anna Sala, published their findings in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences this month. The study, based on a 38-year ponderosa pine genetic experiment at UM’s Lubrecht Experimental Forest, found young families of http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/061417pine.php[1/23/2018 10:10:52 AM] UM Research: Slow-Growing Ponderosas Survive Mountain Pine Beetle Outbreaks - UM News - University Of Montana

fast-growing ponderosa pines typically survived to maturity better than slow-growing ones – but this was not the case when mature trees were affected by a mountain pine beetle outbreak. In that scenario, slow-growing families survived better.

“Our findings explain why natural tree populations maintain a mixture of genotypes with different growth rates,” Sala said. “The study illustrates why the maintenance of genetic diversity is critical to cope with the varying demands as organisms grow, as environmental conditions change and with the variety of risks that organisms face during their lifespan – particularly under climate change, when the frequency of drought, insect pests such as the mountain pine beetle and extreme events are predicted to increase.”

The team used a combination of data to show that fast growth in trees may be costly. They measured survival after a mountain pine beetle outbreak when trees were almost 40 years old and used a long-term dataset on survival and growth rates of over 4,000 trees planted in 1974, which was provided by the Inland Empire Tree Improvement Cooperative. With these data, the researchers were able to show in a long-lived organism that the specific genotypes that survive at any given point in time had changed over time. Their study shows that under some circumstances, such as high bark beetle densities during an outbreak, fast growth is costly.

The article, "An insect outbreak shifts the direction of selection from fast to slow growth rates in the long-lived conifer Pinus ponderosa" can be accessed online at http://bit.ly/2rYU9hb.

UM Research Points to Previously Unknown Pine Marten Diversity

June 22, 2017

MISSOULA – The elusive American pine marten, a little-studied member of the weasel family, might be more diverse than originally thought, according to new research published by a University of Montana professor.

A study by Natalie Dawson, research professor in UM’s Department of Ecosystem and Conservation Sciences and director of UM’s Wilderness Institute, suggests that the forests of northwest North America may harbor not one, but two distinct species of the mammal. The research, published in a recent edition of the Journal of Mammology, also points to the presence of hybrid marten populations in Montana’s Rocky Mountains, where the two species converge.

Dawson, whose work builds on previous research conducted in the 1950s by late UM Professor Philip Wright, examined hundreds of DNA samples to differentiate between the separate populations. She said her findings are exciting because hybridization in different species of mammals is still relatively new, especially in natural ecosystems.

“This is one of the few cases where there has been long-term hybridization between species that still maintain their http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/062217mart.php[1/23/2018 10:11:03 AM] UM Research Points to Previously Unknown Pine Marten Diversity - UM News - University Of Montana

distinctiveness in their respective localities,” she said. “This research also illustrates the importance of historical climate change as a driver for biological diversity in the mountains and landscapes of Montana, as well as throughout the rest of North America.”

Currently, Dawson is furthering her research by examining historical pine marten skulls housed in UM’s Philip L. Wright Zoological Museum in hopes of understanding the morphological, or physical, characteristic differences between the two species.

The study, “Historical biogeography sets the foundation for contemporary conservation of martens (genus Martes) in northwestern North America,” is available online at https://academic.oup.com/jmammal/article/98/3/715/3827815/Historical-bi.

UM Family Medicine Residency Program to Graduate 8 New Family Physicians

June 22, 2017

MISSOULA – Residents in underserved areas will gain eight new medical doctors on Sunday, June 25, when the University of Montana graduates its second class of family physicians from the Family Medicine Residency of Western Montana.

All eight of the graduating family physicians have already accepted employment to stay true to the three-year, intensive training program’s mission of serving rural and underserved areas throughout the Pacific Northwest.

“It is extremely satisfying to see the fulfillment of our mission become a reality as our graduates head to the rural and underserved communities of Montana and the region,” program director Ned Vasquez said. “The fact they are doing so speaks highly of the individuals we have recruited and the curriculum they have experienced in their time with us.”

Four new family physicians will practice in western Montana. Sarah Watson and Emma Wright will be employed in Missoula at Partnership Health Center, and Nicole Russell will be employed in Kalispell at Flathead Community Health Center. Justin Perry will practice in Helena at St. Peter’s Hospital. http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/062217fmed.php[1/23/2018 10:11:09 AM] UM Family Medicine Residency Program to Graduate 8 New Family Physicians - UM News - University Of Montana

Nick Blake plans to work in Oregon. Nicole Breen, Jesse Charles and Michael Druschel will head to Washington state.

In Montana, 53 out of 56 counties are underserved, and 11 counties are without physicians. When the residency program began in 2013, Montana ranked 50th in the nation for graduate medical education per capita. The creation of FMRWM more than doubled the number of family medicine physicians trained in Montana each year and is expected to have a significant impact on the state’s shortage of primary care doctors in rural communities.

UM College of Health Professions and Biomedical Sciences Dean Reed Humphrey said the goal of UM’s Health and Medicine initiative is to train the next generation of health practitioners and researchers with a focus of not only serving Montana and its needs, but also the world.

“The family medicine residency program is an excellent way to integrate inter-professional opportunities within the college and residency,” Humphrey said. “We are pleased to be able to sponsor and work closely with the residency program.”

Headquartered in Missoula, FMRWM is sponsored by UM and affiliated with the University of Washington Family Medicine Residency Network. Distinctively, the program is dually accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education and the American Osteopathic Association.

The program’s three sponsoring hospitals in western Montana include Kalispell Regional Healthcare and Providence St. Patrick Hospital and Community Medical Center in Missoula. Residents are involved in continuity clinic training at Partnership Health Center in Missoula and Flathead Community Health Center in Kalispell.

Additionally, the program works with an extensive rural training network of 10 sites, including Blackfeet Community Hospital, Northwest Community Health Center, Providence St. Joseph Medical Center, Clark Fork Valley Hospital, St. Luke Community Healthcare, Community Physicians Group-Stevensville, Marcus Daly Memorial Hospital, Community Hospital of Anaconda, Barrett Hospital and Healthcare and Central Montana Medical Center.

Engstrom Returns to the Classroom to Teach UM Honors, Chemistry Courses

June 16, 2017

MISSOULA – University of Montana students taking courses in chemistry or in the Davidson Honors College this fall may find that former UM President Royce Engstrom is their professor.

Engstrom will return to teaching for the first time since he left his position as provost at the University of South Dakota to become provost and vice president for Academic Affairs at UM in 2007.

“I am really enjoying reading chemistry again and preparing materials for my classes,” Engstrom said. “I am looking forward to teaching again.”

Prior to serving as UM’s 17th president, Engstrom served for three years as UM provost and vice president for Academic Affairs, a role that included the position of tenured full professor in the Department of Chemistry. It is common for academic administrators to be tenured members of faculty, and many choose to return to teaching when they no longer serve in an administrative capacity. As a full professor in UM’s Department of Chemistry, Engstrom’s annual salary will be $119,106.

Engstrom came to Montana from the University of South Dakota, where he served for 28 years in various positions, including assistant professor, chair of the chemistry department, graduate school dean, vice president for research and provost. He has 20 years of teaching experience.

Since he stepped down as UM president, Engstrom has been busy serving in other executive capacities. Later this month, he will complete his term as a commissioner of the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. He is active in performing accreditation visits at various universities, and he serves on the executive board as treasurer of the Association of American Colleges and Universities. In May, Engstrom delivered the address for the University of South Dakota’s 130th annual spring Commencement.

Engstrom said he looks forward to the vibrant activity on campus when students return in the fall.

“Mary and I love the University of Montana and we love Missoula,” he said. “We’re happy to stay here and continue to make Missoula our home.”

UM Chemist to Study Climate, Health Effects of Wildfire Smoke

June 15, 2017

MISSOULA – University of Montana scientists will fly straight into the smoke of western wildfires as part of a collaborative research project, thanks to a new grant from the National Science Foundation.

Assistant Professor Lu Hu from UM’s Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry received http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/061517atmo.php[1/23/2018 10:11:19 AM] UM Chemist to Study Climate, Health Effects of Wildfire Smoke - UM News - University Of Montana

$406,000 for the three- year project, which aims to study the chemical composition and evolution of western wildfire smoke. Hu and his atmospheric chemistry group will lead instrument preparation and deployment of the group’s instrument on the NSF National Center for Atmospheric Research C-130 research aircraft (https://www.eol.ucar.edu/observing_facilities/c-130).

This instrument will provide real-time measurements of volatile organic compounds in wildfire smoke and more insight into organic gas composition than previously possible. The VOCs from wildfires are typically toxic, and they can form ground-level and fine particulate matter, which are linked to serious health impacts and regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Test flights are planned for the end of this summer, and the major field campaign will take place in July and August 2018. Based out of Boise, Idaho, the airborne field campaign will sample wildfire smoke plumes throughout the Rocky Mountain West.

Once researchers collect the data, they will focus on how cloud chemistry, aerosol absorption and reactive nitrogen in wildfire plumes affect air quality, nutrient cycles, weather, climate and the health of those exposed to smoke.

“Living in Missoula, we know firsthand how wildfires can impact air quality,” said Wade Permar, a graduate student in Hu’s group. “Little is understood though about the chemical processes that take place in wildfire smoke plumes. We are hoping that through this campaign we can get a better understanding at how a wildfire may affect air quality for communities downwind.”

The project is part of a larger $3.8 million study and collaborative effort among scientists from Colorado State University, the University of Colorado-Boulder, the University of Wyoming, the University of Washington, UM and NCAR. The larger team will include more than a dozen graduate students across the five universities, as well as undergraduate students. http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/061517atmo.php[1/23/2018 10:11:19 AM] UM Chemist to Study Climate, Health Effects of Wildfire Smoke - UM News - University Of Montana

Big Dipper Partners with UM on Huckleberry Ice Cream

June 15, 2017

MISSOULA – Lovers of ice cream and the Griz can celebrate two of their favorite things with the release of HuckleBeary, a newly branded flavor from Missoula’s own Big Dipper Ice Cream.

The huckleberry-flavored sweet treat is the brainchild of Charlie and Barbie Beaton, University of Montana alumni and owners of the iconic Big Dipper Ice Cream shop on Higgins Avenue. A portion of the proceeds from selling HuckleBeary benefits UM. http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/061517dipr.php[1/23/2018 10:11:24 AM] Big Dipper Partners with UM on Huckleberry Ice Cream - UM News - University Of Montana

“We just wanted to help our local university,” Charlie Beaton said. “We thought this was a great way to sell ice cream and give back to our alma mater. I was inspired to start a small business by my UM entrepreneurship class, and I think the University is a resource we as a community need to promote and nurture.”

Big Dipper huckleberry has long been a top seller at the company’s scoop locations, but the flavor had never been available in pints before. Since April, the pints – sporting the bear mascot on a UM-inspired maroon container – have been sold in 10 Missoula locations. Those include Albertsons, Big Dipper, Grizzly Grocery, Missoula Fresh Market, Noon’s, Orange Stree Food Farm, Pattee Creek Market, Southgate Market and UM’s Corner Store and Market.

Beaton said sales have been brisk, with HuckleBeary outselling the other Big Dipper pints two to one.

“It’s a great flavor, and hopefully this new partnership will inspire more people to give it a try,” he said.

Erika Palmer, UM’s trademarks and licensing director, said the University works with a variety of vendors to creatively market UM-affiliated products. The makers of these products get to use UM’s image, and in return a portion of sales are passed on to the University as revenue.

“Big Dipper has been a great partner for UM, and we wish them all the success in the world,” Palmer said. “Hopefully customers will fall in love with HuckleBeary like we have, and I hope they get a kick out of the fact they can help UM by eating ice cream.”

For more about Big Dipper and the Beatons, see this story in the fall 2015 issue of the Montanan. The company website is http://www.bigdippericecream.com/, and readers can learn more about UM Trademarks and Licensing at http://www.umt.edu/licensing/.

Big Dipper was recently ranked the best ice cream shop in Montana by Thrillist.

UM Receives Grant to Support Native American Faculty in STEM

June 21, 2017

MISSOULA – A University of Montana research team has been awarded a $1.8 million grant to promote professional success for Native American faculty in the STEM fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

The National Science Foundation awarded UM and partner institutions the collaborative, four-year research grant for the Willow Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate. Salish Kootenai College in Pablo and Sitting Bull College in Fort Yates, North Dakota, as well as UM, form the alliance.

“The reality is that the numbers of indigenous STEM faculty in higher education continue to be very small,” said UM mathematics Associate Professor Ke Wu, who is the principal investigator for the grant. “Our hope is that the Willow AGEP will help start and support positive change.”

The grant supports development of a model that contains a mentoring program, grant preparation, management training activities and an institutional support program.

http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/062117agep.php[1/23/2018 10:11:30 AM] UM Receives Grant to Support Native American Faculty in STEM - UM News - University Of Montana

The UM team includes co-principal investigators Ruth Ann Swaney, Blakely Brown, Laurie Walker and Michael Patterson, as well as senior personnel Amy Kinch, D’Shane Barnett and Katherine Swan.

At Salish Kootenai College, Steven Dupuis will serve as principal investigator, working with program coordinator Zetra Wheeler. Renae Schmitt is the principal investigator at Sitting Bull College.

The project’s organizational structure, processes and tasks emphasize four values of a Native American worldview, including respect, relevance, reciprocity and relationship.

“One of the really exciting aspects of this project is that a number of Native people are either co-principal investigators or project staff,” said Swaney, UM’s Native American Natural Resource Program coordinator. “We are excited that research is for Natives and includes Native faculty and staff members in the research.”

Swaney is an enrolled tribal member of the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation. Swan is an enrolled member of the Chippewa Cree Tribe of Rocky Boy’s Reservation. Barnett is Mandan and Arikara from the Three Affiliated Tribes of Fort Berthold.

At Salish Kootenai College, Dupuis is an enrolled member of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes, and Wheeler is an enrolled member of the Blackfeet Tribe. Schmitt at Sitting Bull College is an enrolled member of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.

Walker, Swaney and Barnett will lead the social science research component of the project, examining the personal, relational, departmental and institutional variables that support or inhibit professional development, promotion and career advancement of Native American STEM faculty. Data collection will include ongoing interviews with Willow Program participants, a one-time survey of faculty in STEM disciplines at the three alliance institutions, and a one- time national survey of Native American STEM faculty.

“We hope to build on the work of Montana University System scholarship of Karla Bird, Ruth Swaney, Sweeney Windchief, Aaron Thomas and Blakely Brown, who researched the experiences, mentoring models and persistence of Native American students,” Walker said. “We hope to develop a similar model articulating the personal, interpersonal and institutional supports for the promotion and advancement of Native American STEM faculty.”

Wildlife Biology Professor Co-Edits New Book on Renewable Energy Development

June 26, 2017

MISSOULA – A growing energy footprint requires careful thought about our world’s energy mix, but even a renewable energy future is not necessarily a green one. While essential to combat climate change, the transition to renewable energy risks trading one crisis for another: climate change for energy sprawl – the amount of land needed to produce energy.

Many renewable energy sources have a large footprint which can threaten biodiversity and conservation. With rising energy demands around the world expected to convert one-fifth of remaining natural lands, is it possible to balance energy development with biodiversity protection?

http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/062617spra.php[1/23/2018 10:11:35 AM] Wildlife Biology Professor Co-Edits New Book on Renewable Energy Development - UM News - University Of Montana

A new book titled “Energy Sprawl : Balancing Global Development and Conservation” provides a roadmap for an energy future that conserves functional and connected ecosystems. It is edited by UM large-scale wildlife ecology Professor David E. Naugle and Joseph M. Kiesecker, lead scientist for The Nature Conservancy’s Conservation Lands Team in Fort Collins, Colorado. They show a key to success is identifying the right energy mix and where to place it. This common-sense involves identifying and preemptively setting aside land where biodiversity should be protected while consolidating energy development in areas with lower conservation value.

Informed by experts in diverse fields such as conservation, ecology, ecosystem services, landscape planning, energy, economics, finance and more, this contributed volume calls for a collaborative approach that engages industry, the environmental community, national governments and international agencies.

After laying out the challenges of balancing conservation with energy security, case studies show best practices for sustainable energy development. Highlighting different energy sectors and countries around the world, emerging models for comprehensive energy planning include:

Identification of “solar energy zones” in the , which have encouraged cross-agency collaboration and reduced project permitting time by more than half; The Reventazón hydropower project in Costa Rica, which compensates for project impacts on the Reventazón basin by applying offsets to rivers with similar natural characteristics; National support of landscape-scale planning to guide coal, mineral, and oil and gas energy project siting in Mongolia, as well as the establishment of protected areas that support both nomadic livelihoods and wildlife.

Illustrated with maps, charts and tables, “Energy Sprawl Solutions” is an indispensable guide for elected officials, industry representatives, natural resource managers, environmental groups and more. Humans already have the tools necessary to forecast where and how energy development should take place to protect natural spaces. With this book, Kiesecker and Naugle show how.

The book is available at https://islandpress.org/books/energy-sprawl-solutions .

UM Research Center Conserves Gun from Famed Sunken Battleship

June 13, 2017

MISSOULA – The Center for Integrated Research on the Environment (CIRE) at the University of Montana has been tasked with restoring a gun from the USS Maine, the historic warship that sank in 1898.

The Maine played a key role in events preceding the Spanish-American War, a conflict that established the United States as a global power. The war provided the U.S. with territory and partnerships that were later essential to victory in World War II, according to Karen , head of the Curator Branch at the Naval History and Heritage Command.

The USS Maine launched in November 1889 and was commissioned into the U.S. Navy in 1895. Maine sailed to Cuba in 1898 to protect American interests during the Cuban War of http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/061317cire.php[1/23/2018 10:11:56 AM] UM Research Center Conserves Gun from Famed Sunken Battleship - UM News - University Of Montana

Independence. On Feb. 15, 1898, while anchored in Havana Harbor, a massive explosion occurred between the bow and the midsection of the Maine, tearing the ship apart, destroying the front third of the vessel and killing almost three-quarters of the crew.

The Maine remained a sunken wreck in Havana Harbor until 1912 when part of the ship was recovered. The rest of the ship was taken to U.S. waters near , where recovery efforts began that surfaced a 16-ton gun.

The Maine carried six of these guns during its service, two at the bow, two on the bridge and two at the stern. The gun being restored is most likely one of the two from the stern.

CIRE contracted with the Warren Lasch Conservation Center of Clemson University in North Charleston, South Carolina, to carry out the specialized conservation treatment of the gun. WLCC has restored multiple ordinance and architectural elements at Fort Sumter National Monument.

CIRE is involved in many projects including assisting, curating and restoring artifacts that have been held in the U.S. Navy Yard in Washington, D.C., for many years, and the 16-ton gun is one of them.

“It was an interesting artifact,” said John Wills, CIRE’s assistant director of finance and contracting who served as lead representative and volunteer observer for the project. “I find history fascinating. War history is probably more fascinating to me than anything else, because of what it means with the way we move forward as a country.”

The multiple coating layers, which were applied to the gun over the years to adhere to Navy maintenance protocol, started to fail, and the gun needed conservation.

As specialists removed the old coating layers and the original surface of the artifact was revealed, various components and features – such as stamps and inscriptions – became visible for the first time in many years.

“One of the most rewarding components of a conservator’s work is that of knowing that your eyes are the first to see an original feature of an artifact long after it has been obscured by corrosion http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/061317cire.php[1/23/2018 10:11:56 AM] UM Research Center Conserves Gun from Famed Sunken Battleship - UM News - University Of Montana

or degradation over time,” said Liisa Näsänen, associate director of WLCC at Clemson.

Those involved with the project said conservation of historic objects and artifacts is the best way to preserve them for the next generation.

“It [conservation] not only addresses condition issues that have adversely affected the artifact itself, but information gained through conserving the gun from the USS Maine will benefit future efforts to preserve other historic naval guns,” France said. “In addition, being able to display an object in stable condition enhances the visitor experience and aids researchers.”

The gun is in the process of being coated with a high performance and durability coating system. It will be returned to the Navy following completion of conservation and be displayed at the National Museum of the U.S. Navy in Washington, D.C.

“I would like to be there when they return it, just to see the final product,” Wills said, “because I did get to see it previous to its restoration and it was in rough shape. It was obvious that there had been a lot of maintenance done on it since it had been put in the Yard.”

The conservation report for the gun will be posted on the Navy website at https://www.history.navy.mil/, and it will give museum professionals, conservators, researchers and the public an opportunity to learn about the challenges and procedures of attempting to conserve an artifact of this size and age.

“The Navy’s rich history and proud heritage are important to everyone who has ever worn a Navy uniform,” France said. “There is no doubt this is an important artifact, and after its conservation, it will continue to ensure that those who see it will learn about and ‘remember the Maine.’”

Student Gives UM Dining Compost Van a New Look with Custom Paint Job

June 06, 2017

MISSOULA – University of Montana Dining’s compost van has a sharp new paint job courtesy of a student graffiti artist who offered his services for free after seeing the plain gray van driving around campus.

The artist, who wishes to remain anonymous, said he first saw the van while touring campus last summer. He noticed the van’s rough spray paint job and told himself that if he was accepted to UM he would offer to give the van a facelift. The next time he saw the van on campus he was an enrolled student, and he approached the driver with his the offer.

“The student caught me and said he did street art and would like to redo our van,” said Anastasia Orkwiszewski, garden manager at UM Dining. “It was a volunteer project. We just provided him with the paint and he and his buddies made it beautiful.”

Described as a former plain gray “dumpy- looking” van by Orwkiszewski, it resembles something out of a 60’s movie, a Mystery Machine-esque with bright splashes of color grounded with an earthly sublayer.

“I just don’t like looking at something that is just grey,” the artist said. “I like to look at things and get a story from it. I felt like, looking at the old van, it already had a story. But I could tell one better.”

The van shuttles compost and produce between the campus gardens and other campus venues. The gardens produce around 6,700 pounds of produce at a market value of $13,200, growing approximately 70 different crops. Produce grown in the gardens is served at UM Dining venues.

“I wanted to give a better view of what graffiti art is,” the artist said. “The aerosol medium I feel like is commonly looked down upon, and it doesn’t have to be that way if it’s done right.”

“It looks way cooler,” Orkwiszewski said. “It’s very stylish and will give us a lot of good attention. I’m very grateful.”

UM Hosts Leadership Training for Undergraduate Women in Montana

June 02, 2017

MISSOULA – Eighteen undergraduate women from across Montana will convene Sunday through Friday, June 4-9, at the University of Montana for the inaugural Montana NEW Leadership Program.

The nonpartisan program offers female students training and networking opportunities to help them become more engaged in public policymaking and community leadership. The first cohort of participants includes women from UM’s Missoula, Western and Helena campuses; Montana Tech; Montana State University; and Salish Kootenai College.

“This program provides a unique educational enhancement focused on educating, empowering and encouraging college women to become politically active and to take on leadership roles,” said Deena Mansour, the program’s administrative director. “We are honored that Rutgers University’s Center for American Women and Politics selected UM and the Mansfield Center to host the Montana NEW Leadership Program.”

Women are widely underrepresented in political offices at both the state and national levels. Only 28.7 percent of Montana’s state legislators are women and none of its national congressional delegation are female. Nationally, http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/060117lead.php[1/23/2018 10:12:34 AM] UM Hosts Leadership Training for Undergraduate Women in Montana - UM News - University Of Montana

women hold only 24.9 percent of state legislative seats and 19.4 percent of congressional seats.

Despite these numbers, women demonstrate a great interest in politics. According to the Center for American Women and Politics 2015 Fact Sheet, women cast between 4 million and 7 million more votes than men, and a higher percentage of eligible women vote in presidential elections than eligible men. Leadership skills training like the Montana NEW Leadership Program may help women bridge the gap between political interest and political leadership.

“Our program includes meetings with distinguished political, academic and business leaders; workshops on teambuilding, networking, professionalism and communication; a visit to Helena for a perspective on state leadership; and an action project to give participants firsthand experience at political activism,” said Sara Rinfret, academic director of the Montana NEW Leadership Program.

In addition to Mansour and Rinfret, Rep. Kimberly Dudik of Montana House District 94 serves as political director of the Montana NEW Leadership Program.

The Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University is recognized nationally as the leading source of scholarly research and current data about American women’s political participation. Its mission is to promote greater knowledge and understanding about women’s participation in politics and government and to enhance women’s influence and leadership in public life.

UM’s Mansfield Center promotes better understanding of Asia, U.S. relations with Asia and ethics in public affairs in the spirit of Sen. (1903-2001) and his wife, Maureen Hayes Mansfield. The center houses programs that focus on the peoples and cultures of modern Asia and ethics in public affairs – the core interests and hallmarks of Sen. Mansfield’s career.

More information on the program is available at http://www.umt.edu/mansfield/academics/newleadership/default.php.

UM VETS Office Earns Award for Student Service

June 02, 2017

MISSOULA – The Veterans Education and Transition Services Office at the University of Montana recently received the 2017 Montana Joining Community – Organization Award in recognition of its service to student veterans at UM.

The award is presented annually to a Montana nonprofit or service organization that has raised the standard for delivery of services and programs that benefit the Montana military community. It recognizes an innovative, collaborative, service-driven and compliant organization that serves as a model for others to emulate.

The UM VETS Office earned the accolade for its efforts over the past several years to reshape itself into an organization of positive action and productivity that is steadfastly committed to helping UM student veterans through academic empowerment, educational services and connections to the necessary resources required to excel.

“The University of Montana has made great efforts over the past several years to impact the lives of veterans and their family members on campus,” said Shawn Grove, VETS Office director. “This award is a recognition for the entire UM community, as our work in the VETS Office would not be possible without the concerted efforts and http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/060217vets.php[1/23/2018 10:13:04 AM] UM VETS Office Earns Award for Student Service - UM News - University Of Montana

dedication of the campus as a whole.”

A statewide network based on the national model, Montana Joining Community Forces works to maximize support- delivery efficiency and enhance communication to assist in the successful reintegration of service members, veterans and their families. More information is online at http://montana.networkofcare.org/veterans/.

For more information call Grove at 406-243-2744 or email [email protected]. More information on the UM VETS Office is online at http://www.umt.edu/veterans/.

UM Journalism Student Documentary Takes National In-Depth Reporting Award

June 01, 2017

MISSOULA – The University of Montana School of Journalism student-produced documentary on autism in Montana recently won the top award in the Television In-Depth Reporting category of the national Society of Professional Journalists’ 2016 Mark of Excellence Awards.

"Aging Out: Autism in Montana" documents the struggles of four Montana families with children on the autism spectrum. Students in the journalism school’s Documentary Film Unit class researched, directed and produced the program, which focuses on the lack of services and care for young adults with autism and how parents are searching for options.

The documentary is online at http://watch.montanapbs.org/video/2365761459/.

"Our students choose their own documentary topic, and I’m so proud of them for tackling such an underreported issue in Montana," said John Twiggs, UM adjunct journalism professor. "These awards represent the best in collegiate journalism, and this recognition represents the quality of production our students accomplished to tell this important story." http://news.umt.edu/2017/06/060117atsm.php[1/23/2018 10:13:15 AM] UM Journalism Student Documentary Takes National In-Depth Reporting Award - UM News - University Of Montana
