911吃瓜网

The rolling mountain ranges and picturesque deserts and plains of the American west all come together in what is often called the most naturally beautiful state in the nation, Montana. With lots of space but not a whole lot of people, Montana is a top agricultural state, a mining and lumber state, and one which has a large tourism sector with its amazing Rocky Mountain Chains, Glacier National Park, the site of the Battle of Little Bighorn, and Yellowstone National Park entry points. The source of many rivers, Montana has abundant fresh water, and as such hydropower. For thousands of years Montana lands have been inhabited by indigenous people, who recognized this state’s beauty and natural resources even in prehistoric times. Moving forward, Montana must find young minds to help maintain this balance between preserving its natural charm, with its geological and archaeological sites, while still moving towards the new technologies and developments of the 21st century. In order to do so, a huge priority is put on education at small colleges and universities where students are able to gain the valuable hands on experience, and receive the one on one attention they need to become leaders of the state, and indeed the country and world, of tomorrow.
