Best of times for Montana State University, worst of times for University of Montana

So what happened? What went wrong at UM? Did MSU do something right, or was it just lucky?

Five years ago the University of Montana in Missoula was riding high, the state’s biggest campus with an all-time record enrollment and a winning Grizzlies football team that beat the rival Montana State University Bobcats.

Today the Grizzlies are still winning games, but the UM Missoula campus is going through tough times. Now it’s the MSU Bozeman campus that gets to brag about being the biggest university in Montana.

In Missoula, student headcount has fallen by 2,600 students from UM’s 2011 peak of 15,669, a 17 percent drop.
