The sounds you will hear on campus today are laughter and the song in the hearts of everyone who loves winter sports. On Friday, October 9, it was 84°F. Some recalled that our first big snow last year did not appear until late November, but by Saturday night, the snow was falling, which it continued to do all Sunday. Our teacher candidates returned to campus on Monday with a playful attitude to enjoy the lovely views and duck under low-hanging limbs.

Scrambled eggs, sausage, and round table discussions? Must be today's Stakeholders' Breakfast. This is where the MSU Teacher Education Program and our Office of Field Placement and Licensure invite superintendents, school administrators, our field supervisors, and our teacher education program faculty to have a discussion about what we are planning, what we are doing right or wrong, and how we can continuously improve our teacher candidates' learning opportunities in the public schools. It is a congenial event, and the food is good, so if you are invited next year, we recommend it.

The video, available on the College of EHHD YouTube Channel, is full of data and advice that will be of interest to anyone who cares about Montana's rural schools.
