As Governor Racicot said, "These are challenging times for our state..." (Open Letter, this issue). With so much at stake for the University System as well as the state, the Editors are eager to do what we can to solicit the views of the faculty on what course should be taken. We are convinced these views can influence the course of events. We are interested in letters to the editor, essays, commentaries, and articles. Any issue confronting the state is fair game. We intend to run these without abandoning the more academic pieces we traditionally carry. Anyone wishing to make a contribution is invited to contact a campus representative on the Review Board (see below) or the editor Madden.
The Montana Professor is published three times each academic year by The Faculty Association of Eastern Montana College and the Montana Federation of Teachers. Current circulation is approximately 2400. Editorial office is
