The 2012 Montana NACADA Conference, “Advising Millennials Under the Big Sky”, will be held at MSU-Bozeman September 27-28, 2012. On behalf of the organizing committee, I would like to take this opportunity to encourage you to attend the conference. Registration information will be available in the next three weeks. If you are interested in presenting, please note that the deadline for submitting a proposal is April 27, 2012.
More information and proposal submissions can be found online at: http://www.nacada.ksu.edu/Events/Conferences/State/Montana2012Sponsored.htm
Call for Proposals
The profession of academic advising changes as rapidly as the students we advise. Now, more than ever, it is essential for advisors to have the opportunity to exchange their ideas, methods, successes and experience in order to fully support the academic progress of our students.
We encourage you to consider contributing to the upcoming conference. We are soliciting professionals to present or coordinate panel discussions. Projected topics may include (but are not limited to):
- Millennials: How they differ from Gen X students, and the impact on their advising needs
- Incorporating technology into advising strategies
- Outreach to students in academic difficulty
- Best practices in peer advising
- Advising distance learners
- Strategies for working with parents or other family members
Proposals will be evaluated on relevance to current issues in advising and appeal to conference participants. We are seeking a wide range of topics relating to academic advising from a variety of advising professionals in our region.
Proposal submission Deadline is April 27, 2012
For more information contact Beth Howard, The University of Montana, beth.howard@mso.umt.edu, or 406-243-6471.

The following message is sent on behalf of Provost Brown.
Due to a number of technical challenges that emerged last week, I have decided to postpone the expansion of prerequisite enforcement for one semester. The Prerequisite Working Group, which has been overseeing this project for the past ten months, recommends that we do so.
Courses included last fall in the successful pilot of prerequisite enforcement in CyberBear will continue to have their prerequisites enforced. Those courses are listed here.
I encourage faculty members to continue to enforce prerequisites in the classroom as many have done in the past, according to catalog course descriptions. I have instructed the Prerequisite Working Group to oversee the effort to solve the current set of problems, so that prerequisites for over 600 courses will be enforced in CyberBear during Fall 2012’s registration period for the Spring 2013 semester.
