Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

The commissioner of higher education and presidents of Montana State University and the University of Montana told a legislative budget panel Thursday they are delivering on the accountability measures required by the Legislature in 2013.

"You all gave us some critical funding for the university system," Higher Education Commissioner Clayton Christian said. "We also worked to create what I call a new environment."
