University of Montana president convenes council to improve communications. Public encourage to participate in future meetings

The first meeting of the President Royce Engstrom’s University Council http://www.umt.edu convened on Tuesday, a symbol of the change in leadership on the University of Montana campus.

A month ago when he still held the title of provost, Engstrom vowed to promote communication on campus and a sense of shared governance by establishing a university council if he were hired as the school’s next president.

On Tuesday, as president, Engstrom fulfilled that promise, calling to order the first meeting of students, staff, faculty, union representatives, administrators and community members. About 20 people sat around a table to discuss future agenda items and how the council should operate.

"These are as much your meetings as they are mine," Engstrom told the group.
