As schools balance in-person and distance learning, MontanaPBS will launch a fall Learn at Home curriculum of educational programming and provide corresponding free digital resources, all intended to support families and educators during the COVID-19 pandemic. The new schedule begins Sept. 8 and continues through Dec. 18.

As part of its efforts, MontanaPBS will dedicate its daytime weekday schedule to educational programming provided by MontanaPBS and the Montana Office of Public Instruction that is aligned with Montana state school standards. The 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. weekday schedule includes specific blocks of time for pre-kindergarten through eighth grade levels and covers subjects including language arts, social studies, science and math. The regular MontanaPBS primetime schedule is not affected by this change.

“We have spent our summer learning from and reflecting on our spring Learn at Home initiative so we could bring back an even better version of the program this fall," said Nikki Vradenburg, director of education at MontanaPBS. “We’re very honored to provide educators and families around the state with free online and over-the-air resources to support their learning endeavors this fall, in whatever form that takes.”

MontanaPBS has curated corresponding free digital content for the Learn at Home programming to better support teachers navigating this new learning environment. Aligned to the same Montana content standards and topic areas as the broadcast service, MontanaPBS has created and shared the following free resources for teachers:

• Distance learning webpage: MontanaPBS has published a webpage that will include the weekly broadcast schedules (with embedded links in each PDF that point to free digital resources), as well as articles and activities created and/or vetted by the MontanaPBS education team, other public media organizations and other trusted education partners. Visit montanapbs.org/learnathome.

• Digital media collections: View and download full resource collections on PBS LearningMedia that correspond with the TV broadcast schedule. Collections include curated media and lesson plans, which are sorted by grade level and subject area. Visit montana.pbslearningmedia.org.

• Unplugged learning menus: MontanaPBS created learning menus for kindergarten through 12th grade students to be used for home learning. All of the learning menus feature activities that do not require technology or an internet connection. These menus can be downloaded from the distance learning webpage at montanapbs.org/learnathome.

The spirit of Montana comes alive in downtown Bozeman’s new dining and entertainment concepts as Fielding’s and Tune Up open on August 18. Together with Sky Shed, which is slated to open later this summer, the dining and entertainment concepts create three lively, social experiences in one location. Fielding’s modern, upscale dining and Tune Up’s standout drinks, savory snacks and rock n’ roll energy will give locals and travelers alike two unique experiences to sip and sample. Under the leadership of Executive Chef Mark Musial, the restaurants and lounges will be the centerpieces of the guest experience at the new Kimpton Armory Hotel, also opening on August 18 in Bozeman’s historic National Guard Armory building.

Fielding’s – Casual Upscale Dining with American Fare

Fielding’s sets the bar for dining with modern American cuisine inspired by Montana’s landscape and bountiful resources. Conveniently located on the main level of the hotel just off of West Mendenhall Street, Fielding's is the namesake of prolific Bozeman architect Fred Fielding Willson, who designed the original Armory building in 1941. Montana’s local flavors will be infused into every menu selection thanks to partnerships with local farmers and ranchers such as Wickens Ranch and Daniels Meats & Sausages. Intentional ingredients are paired with attention to detail when it comes to signature menu selections such as pan-seared Sweet Potato Gnocchi with brown butter and fresh sage, as well as Lamb Shoulder Navarin presented with pomme puree and French petit poix, which is a medley of vegetables including peas, fava beans and pearl onions.

Chef Musial’s Angry Trout is bound to get people talking from its preparation to presentation. A delicious take of the state’s famous fish, this unique dish offers a deboned trout braised with white wine and lardons, presented with the tail coming out the fish’s mouth. The dish is finished with brown butter sauce with cauliflower, capers, lemon, pine nuts and parsley.

Beverage Manager Matthew Betts and his team have created a cocktail menu for Fielding’s that will inspire conversation with creative selections like the Romeo and Secret Garden. The Romeo is a spirit forward, Larceny bourbon based drink with Campari and Averna Amaro. The Secret Garden integrates the restaurant’s house-made strawberry-balsamic gastrique with elder flower liqueur, basil and lemon. The restaurant also will offer an extensive, New World focused wine program.

Fielding’s initially will offer breakfast and dinner service, as well as in-room dining for Kimpton Armory Hotel guests.

Tune Up – Basement Bar & Live Music Venue

Tune Up is located in the basement of the Kimpton Armory Hotel, but it's far from a speakeasy. The cozy whiskey and beer bar is located in the space where the Armory band used to practice and will pay homage to its musical roots with regularly scheduled live performances. The bar features a library of whiskey that ranges from locally made Bozeman favorites to rare and hard to find spirits. Tune Up also will offer a wide range of craft beers from Montana microbreweries including hometown Bozeman Brewing Company. Classic and creative cocktails also don the menu from the Poms of Wrath to the Light My Fire, a sweet and spicy concoction that brings all the elements of a good concert in one glass. The cocktail features house infused pineapple-habanero George Dickel Rye Whiskey, Demerara Sugar, Peychauds Bitters and served in a rocks glass over a large ice ball.

Tune Up’s rock and roll spirit is evident in the bar’s clubby, semi-private Rebel Room. The snug nook tucked away by the stage offers an escape within the space and celebrates music pioneers with locally painted portraits of greats including Johnny Cash, Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan and Prince.

Tune Up’s food menu is concise, featuring hearty bar snacks, apt for sharing and snacking yet ample enough to make a meal. Featured items include the Turned-Up Poutine with house cut fries topped with braised beef cheeks and bordelaise with cheese curds and double smoked bacon. Signature selections include the 12-Hour Onion Dip, Pickle Chips and Curds, Spiced Carrots and the Crispy Chicken Sando covered in crushed cornflakes, deep fried and then served with spicy kim-chi cream cheese spread, house pickles and cilantro.

Tune Up offers Happy Hour specials Monday through Friday from 5-6 p.m. and Thursday and Friday from 4-5 p.m. Happy Hour will feature $1 off all drafts, $5 Happy Hour white and red wines, $7 Old Fashion and $8 Beer & Blast, a tall boy can of beer and the bartender’s choice of whiskey. Menus specials and small bites also will be served.

Tune Up also offers hospitality industry special on Sunday and Monday nights with $10 burger and beer special as well as $8 Beer & Blast.

Sky Shed – Rooftop Lounge & Pool with a View

Opening later this summer, Sky Shed rooftop lounge and pool promises to be an elevated social experience where guests can soak up the scene and enjoy boozy delights and light bites all year long. Set nine stories above Bozeman’s historic downtown, Sky Shed’s unique indoor and outdoor spaces transform with the seasons, perfect for basking in the sun or getting cozy by the fire.

Sky Shed’s extensive cocktail program will showcase a creative collection of drinks with flirty garnishes. Local breweries support the beer program, while the carefully curated collection of rosé and sparkling rounds out the elegant wine list. Sample Rosé all day on Sundays with $20 bottles or visit the Sky Shed mid-week for Golden Hour happy hour special from 4-5 p.m. Monday through Friday including $1 off all draft and cocktails as well as $7 house wines by the glass.

Chef Musial’s Sky Shed kitchen will offer a breadth of compelling, sharable bites inspired by the expansive, light-filled space. The dishes will be full of fresh flavors, diverse and colorful in culinary style which create a celebratory culture to be enjoyed alongside the enviable views. Signature menu selections will include Korean Meatballs, Tail Style Chicken Salas, Bao Buns and the Korean Hanger Steak which is an experience itself. The hanger steak is marinated in Tamari and sesame with onions and apple juice before being seared and sliced. The steak is served with pickled ginger, kimchi, green onions and Yuzu Kosho.

All restaurants and lounges will open with enhanced health and cleaning protocols as part of Kimpton’s Clean Promise, which balances the need for providing guests with an exceptional travel experience while taking extra precautions to protect their well-being. The initiative ensures guestrooms and all public spaces will be thoroughly disinfected, physical distancing will be encouraged and single-use gloves and face coverings will be available for guests. For more information, please visit Kimpton’s Clean Promise website.

In an effort to promote science, technology, engineering and mathematics education, members of Montana State University Academic Technology and Outreach recently distributed 500 NASA science kits to students on the Blackfeet Reservation.

The kits were created in partnership with Blackfeet Community College and through a Northwest Earth and Space Science Pipeline grant from NASA. Jamie Cornish, outreach specialist for ATO, said the kits are a tool for teaching children about space science and encouraging them to get outdoors after months spent learning from home during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Because of the COVID emergency, schools all over the state had to go online. In some parts of Montana, the internet connection can be iffy, and a lot of families don’t have Wi-Fi in their homes, so students were doing packets of worksheets,” Cornish said. “Everything began to feel like homework, so kids were less engaged in learning. These kits are a nice way to get kids away from screens and to get them excited about space science.”

The kit’s theme is inspired by the NASA Mars 2020 mission, which launched in July with a rover called Perseverance. The rover will seek signs of life on Mars and collect rock and soil samples. Each kit includes eight “missions” with an accompanying activity. Some lessons in the kit include collecting rock specimens; using a bug box to gather and examine “signs of life” in their neighborhoods; and using an astronomical calendar to watch for celestial events.

The kits also include a list of local teachers whom interested students can contact to join NASA robotics teams in the fall. Each year, ATO hosts a NASA robotics competition for Montana students. Details for the next challenge will be released this fall.

Cornish said that an exciting aspect of these kits is how they blend Western science with traditional Blackfeet science. For instance, the geology rock collecting mission incorporates Blackfeet words for different geological terms, and the astronomical calendar also includes traditional stories of stars, phases of the moon and more.

“We started talking to educators and key stakeholders in the Blackfeet tribe with whom we have been doing research on whether blending Native and Western science improves students' learning outcomes,” Cornish said. “This was a great opportunity to connect students with their culture.”

Cornish added that ATO hopes to replicate this program collaborating with other tribes in the state during the fall semester.

Montana State University announced today that it has appointed a physician and an emergency operations professional to lead its next phase of response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dr. Kathy Jutila, director of MSU’s Division of Health Sciences, will serve as the campus coordinator for COVID-19 testing and contact tracing focused on students. Hayley Gerow, who currently serves as MSU’s director of emergency management, will work with Jutila as deputy campus coordinator.

The assignments come after last Friday’s announcement by Montana Gov. Steve Bullock that the campuses of the Montana University System will receive up to $20 million to assist in their efforts to slow the spread of the virus. MSU will receive roughly $6.5 million from the package.

“Dr. Jutila and Hayley Gerow are the right people for this task,” said MSU President Waded Cruzado, who made the appointments. “They understand we need to move rapidly, and they have the experience and credibility on campus to make that happen.”

Jutila and Gerow will focus their initial efforts on testing and contact tracing.

“Bolstering our ability to make sure every student who shows symptoms is tested promptly and those test results are returned in a timely manner is extremely important in our efforts to slow the spread of the virus,” Jutila said. “Determining if a symptomatic person has the virus allows them to isolate themselves so they don’t spread it further.”

Complementing symptomatic testing is contact tracing, whereby close contacts of those testing positive are identified and then told to self-quarantine. A close contact is defined as anyone who spent 15 continuous minutes within 6 feet of an infected person.

MSU will be hiring three to five staff members dedicated to contact tracing. Those staff will be trained by the Gallatin City-County Health Department and remain in close coordination with the department using its software and reporting protocols.

“I can’t stress enough how important it will be for students to cooperate with our contact tracing efforts,” Jutila said. “We’re all in this together. To slow the spread of the virus we need to be able to reach close contacts and have them self-quarantine. It’s a critical part to the success of public health, not just for MSU but for the county, state and nation.”

Jutila has served as the director of MSU’s Division of Health Sciences since 2015. She also mentors physicians in training through the WWAMI Medical Education Program, which serves the states of Washington, Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and Idaho. Her medical expertise is in internal medicine and cardiovascular disease.

Gerow has been MSU’s director of emergency management since 2017. Previously she served for six years as an emergency manager in the U.S. Air Force, specializing in natural and human-made disasters. She has a bachelor’s degree in emergency administration and planning.

Sophie Varnum was sure of two things after graduating from Wibaux High School – cooking was her passion, and four-year colleges weren’t for her.

Since her freshman year of high school, Varnum had been interested in cooking and loved the cooking classes Wibaux High School offered. To her, food was an important way to connect with people and build relationships. While her friends were off attending four-year schools, Varnum instead enrolled in the culinary arts program at Gallatin College Montana State University, where she found the type of education, hands-on work and individuality she desired.

“We had a lot of creativity in the classroom and got to experiment in the kitchen,” Varnum said. “Not everything turns out the same in the kitchen, and we just went with the flow, tried new things and were able to test our own skills and branch out.”

Before graduating in May, Varnum already had a position in the culinary industry lined up, thanks to an internship with Inspired Madness. She currently works as a line cook and prep cook at Lot G Café in Bozeman and hopes to one day work in the hosting or catering industry.

This year, Gallatin College hit an important milestone and celebrated its 10th anniversary serving the Gallatin Valley communities and Southwest Montana. In the last decade, the college has been instrumental in providing local industries with valuable skilled employees, such as Varnum, and giving students quality education and the professional tools to succeed. Whether students have graduated with a workforce degree, transferred to MSU with an associate’s degree or completed credits through its dual enrollment program, Gallatin College has become an integral part of Bozeman’s economy and educational offerings, said Stephanie Gray, dean of the college.

“Being a college at a land-grant university is a great fit for the mission of Gallatin College because we provide affordability and increased accessibility for students, while meeting local community needs.” Gray said. 

Previously known as the MSU-Great Falls College of Technology, in May 2010 it was renamed Gallatin College Montana State University to more accurately reflect the college’s location and offerings.

Under the new name, the college’s first dean was Bob Hietala, who filled the role until his retirement in 2019. In those early years, Gallatin College’s programs were more limited and provided developmental education, welding, interior design and aviation. But the college grew alongside Bozeman’s economy and recognized a greater need to create programs that support the growing workforce, such as photonics, health coding and cybersecurity. In 2014, Gallatin College opened its east campus off Bozeman’s Osterman Drive, which gave it the much-needed boost in capacity to serve its students and grow enrollment.

Under Hietala, Gallatin College’s enrollment growth was the fastest of any college or university in Montana, going from serving approximately 100 students pursuing certificates and associate degrees in 2009 to more than 600 today. Additionally, the college serves hundreds of Montana State students pursuing other degrees through developmental courses in math and writing.

Gray became dean in July 2019. She had been the workforce program development director at the college since 2012 and saw firsthand how rapidly Gallatin College expanded.

During her time in that position, Gray led, designed and implemented eight new workforce programs; partnered with the MSU College of Education, Health and Human Development to launch the hospitality management and culinary arts programs; secured more than $2.4 million in grant funding; and oversaw growth of the college’s dual enrollment program from 25 enrolled students to more than 600.

Today, Gallatin College offers 14 workforce programs and has graduated more than 1,000 students since 2009. Gray said that the college graduated 27 students in 2011. Last year there were 190 graduates.

“Sometimes people say higher education is slow to adapt and change, but Gallatin College has been able to quickly respond to workforce needs over the years,” Gray said.

Part of Gallatin College’s mission is to support the community’s vibrant economy and to provide graduates access to high-paying jobs. To meet its promises, Gallatin College works extensively with industry and community leaders in to determine what programs need expansion and to develop new ones, said Gray.

While attending MSU and after changing his major twice, Devon Gwynn switched gears once more and attended Gallatin College for its welding technology certification program. He wanted a career path that would allow him access to a job quickly, but also with livable wages. He enrolled in 2018 and has since completed his welding certification and is currently working on his CNC machinery technology certification. Gwynn noted that, within two to three months of entering the program, he had both a welding and a machinery job lined up due to the demand from the industries.

“The school has our backs. They go through a lot of effort to deal with employers,” Gwynn said. “The instructors are in constant contact with members of the community, asking what specifically they want, what the students should focus on and act as an intermediary between employers and students. It’s a very engaging process, and they put in a lot of effort and it gives results.”

Like most two-year colleges, Gallatin College’s student body is made up of students from different walks of life, from traditional high school graduates to adults looking for a career change. In order to meet student needs, Gray said Gallatin College prides itself on allowing for flexibility in its curriculum so students can feel creative and find what they need out of their degree.

Kelly Arnold, who graduated from Gallatin College in 2019, boasted of the instructors’ abilities to work with students’ schedules and help them understand the balance between work, school and their personal lives. Arnold was a nontraditional student who attended Gallatin College while working in the health care field. She graduated from Gallatin College as a registered medical assistant and received her small business management certificate. She said that her instructors were understanding and would work with her and other students. They also cared for the students’ overall well-being and would remind them to schedule personal time and escape from the stresses of work and school.

“All my teachers were great. I got to know them all very well. They all knew I was working a lot and that I wanted to make something of myself, so being able to feel I was a part of something with my teachers and knowing my personal life, it was very helpful and I didn’t feel like I was in over my head all the time,” said Arnold, who currently works as a care coordinator for Qualicare.

“Our instructors are passionate about what they are teaching, they’re experts in their field and love sharing that with students,” Gray added. “They get them excited about potential careers and how to be professionals which is important right now. We hear a lot about how important technical skills are, but the other pieces are learning how to find solutions, be on a team and communicate accordingly.”

With its first 10 years in the books, Gallatin College has a wealth of experiences, student success and relationships to build off and prepare for its next decade. Going forward, Gray said she is focused on myriad projects and ideas to grow the college. This includes adding a heating, ventilation and air conditioning program as well as working with local nonprofits and making connections with low income members of the community who want a career change or are seeking to improve their economic situations.

“I’m excited to run a college that reflects the environment of the community we are in,” Gray said. “Not only keeping pace with the local economy through education, but also mirroring the culture and values of our area. In order to accomplish this in the next 10 years, Gallatin College will need a building that serves the entire community to help individuals fulfill their dreams, achieve their potential and give back to this vibrant place we all love.”

The Salvation Army, Family Promise and Love, Inc urgently need more donations to assist the more than 350 students in Gallatin County through the “Tools for School” campaign, which provides back to school supplies for children in need. Donations are far below this time last year, and the organizations’ need the community’s help to give students the supplies they need.  

School supplies needed include: backpacks, crayons, markers, colored pencils, #2 pencils, erasers, highlighters, scissors, glue, 2” binders, notebooks, rulers and other standard school supplies. 

There are many ways to donate:
• Drop off school supplies at barrels located at local churches, Staples and Office Depot through August 13.
• Purchase supplies online and have them shipped directly to The Salvation Army: http://salarmy.us/bozemanregistryforgood.
•  Call The Salvation Army at 406-586-5813 or Love INC at 406-587-3008. 

Because of COVID-19, the non-profits will drop off school supplies at the front doors of backpack recipients’ homes the week of August 22, rather than the traditional in-person event.  

Families can pre-register to receive supplies through Friday, August 14. To register, call Love INC at 406-587-3008 or register online at https://loveincgc.org/tools-4-school-sign-up/. Children in grade K-12 are eligible to receive a backpack and school supplies. 

“When kids go to school with everything they need, they are more confident and perform better,” says Lieutenant Jenn Larson, Administrator for The Salvation Army in Bozeman. “We’re excited to provide this opportunity for children of Gallatin County, so we can eliminate some of the barriers that keep kids from thriving.”

All learning institutions demand that students deliver high-quality research papers. The frequency of doing and submitting these assignments depends on your academic level and scholarly discipline. However, things are harder for those pursuing masters and Ph.D. courses, as they must submit thoroughly researched and well-written dissertations.

Dissertations are about 40-80 pages long, and lecturers demand you complete and defend your project within a semester or two. Unfortunately, normal learning activities won’t come to a halt because you are writing your dissertation. You will still be required to attend classes, take part in after school activities, and to some, work part-time to get your life going.

Unfortunately, by the end of the semester, you will be excessively exhausted. But lucky you, there are affordable and easily accessible options you can always count on. These options include looking for the best research paper writers online and paying them to do the job for you.

So, Is the Process of Buying Papers Online Worth the Cost?
Well, with the Internet, searching for services online now happens in a flash. However, there are multiple factors to consider before buying papers online, and the assessment of these aspects will help you to decide the activity’s value.

Additionally, you can use the factors to differentiate between reliable online paper providers and fraudsters. So, let’s get started and ensure that you not only end up buying papers from genuine buyers but also achieve the ideal value for your investment.

Ensure the Mode of Payment is Highly Secure and Verified
Luckily enough, there are multiple online payment options to consider. Anytime you are faced with alternatives to pick from, always settle on the most secure, convenient, and approved mode of payment.

It will:
Protect you from those who use unscrupulous means
Keep your money safe until you get the service you had paid for
Keep your account details safe
Make Sure the Firm Keeps Personal Info Anonymous

Personal data protection and anonymity are essential because info leakage can lead to expulsion, especially if the college learns the truth about students seeking academic writing services. The action is taken due to work authenticity issues.

Consider the Set Plagiarism and Paper Quality Policies
Colleges demand 100% unique and premium-quality papers, which is the same thing that paper selling firms should promise and deliver. To confirm you’ve made the right decision on the matter, go through previous customers’ evaluations and feedback from genuine review sites.

Additionally, ensure the company provides a plagiarism report after delivering your task. Finally, make sure there are free revision services, as these bolsters the chances of getting a high-quality paper, in case the initial draft had some errors.

Consider the Professionalism of the Paper Writers
How strict is the firm’s hiring process? What are the academic qualifications for those working on the platform? Note that a rigorous hiring process mainly works best in filtering the needed experts, and this increases the chances of having your work done by qualified professionals.

Consider the Cost of Buying Papers Online
At times, cheap becomes expensive. On the other hand, never overpay for substandard services. So, always look for the best-priced service: one that offers high-quality services at the most affordable cost. That way, you will end up with an investment that provides the best value for your money.

Make Sure the Firm Can Deliver the Work on Time
On-time assignment delivery is a vital necessity, as homework submitted past the deadline mainly attracts penalties or marks deduction. When it comes to dissertations and thesis papers, delivering your work late can negatively impact your graduation.

You don’t want to end up in such a situation. Therefore, make sure the writing company has enough resources and fast turnarounds before p their services.

Finally, an Effective Support Service Is Crucial
Put yourself in a situation where, upon order delivery, you find out that the writer submitted the wrong paper, but unfortunately, you lack a platform to complain or request for the error rectification. In such situations, effective customer service becomes useful. But that’s not all, as multiple problems can also be solved by active support staffs, including:

Money-related issues
Deadline extension requests
Login or paper download failure

Final Thoughts
The Internet and online paper writing services mainly come to your rescue when you are struggling with assignment workload or strict deadlines. However, the process of using these provisions requires extra caution, as this increases your chances of getting service that offers the ideal value for your money. Fortunately, with the online paper buying tips listed above, you are assured of an experience worth remembrance.
