We are nearing the close of the

University’s most ambitious fundraising campaign in its 114-year history. We are confident we will attain and exceed

our goal. • Alumni, parents, friends, faculty, corporations, organizations and foundations are among our benefactors,

as you will see in this report. For the generosity you personally have shown, we are grateful beyond measure. • As

a result, this year students have benefited from a record number of scholarships and fellowships. Our programs, faculty and

students continue to receive accolades for achievement. New buildings, such as the Don Anderson Hall for Journalism

and the Skaggs Biomedical Research Addition for the College of Health Professions and Biomedical Sciences, support and

enrich a learning environment in which discovery and innovation are at the forefront. • What drives this culture of

philanthropy? Our students who prepare to meet the challenges of their lives. Our faculty who fire the talents and ambitions of

our students. Our classrooms and laboratories where the curriculum comes to life. Our alumni who translate their UM

experiences into meaningful careers. Our friends, both near and far, who recognize how the University has transformed its students

and graduates. • Today, we see The University of Montana in a new light. We look beyond the horizon. We imagine with

clarity. We believe in this University. And we dream.

“I like tobrag about my Montana students!”

says Raymon Thompson, founder, chair-

man and CEO of Semitool, Inc., Kalispell.

“Rewarding” is Thompson’s assessment of

his association with UM. He describes UM

students as “sharp and alert.” In fact, he

points out, Larry Viano ’76, Semitool’s CFO,

earned his degree from the University.

“The reason Montana students are great

employees,” Thompson says, “is that they

are not neurotic. They’ve been reared as

typical Montana youngsters. They’re great

at developing new products and opening

new areas of business.”

Thompson respects the faculty’s work,

as well. He terms their approach to

instruction as “entrepreneurial. They

encourage risk-taking, and that’s what

enterprise is about.”

Thompson reflects on how

the Gilkey Center for

Executive Education and

the Gilkey Executive Lecture Series might

affect UM students and the community.

The creation of this center, he comments,

“will expose future leaders to the realities

of doing business [here and abroad]” and

help them frame their actions and deci-

sions in the context of real-life events.

“The project promises to introduce UM

business students to businessmen and

women with outstanding credentials and

experiences,” he continues. “Additionally,

it will serve business people of this region

by providing advanced training and net-

working opportunities.”

SylviaJensen is as spirited a Grizzly

supporter as any alumna. But . . . she’s

not a UM graduate.

“I’ve provided support since 2001,”

Jensen says. But it’s support of a specific

kind, unique to her particular interests.

“Student athletes come to the University

first as students,” she explains. “They must

maintain a certain GPA to remain on

scholarship. Secondly, they come to play a

sport, and they work very hard to maintain

required physical levels.”

Jensen made several visits to classes specifi-

cally designed to help student athletes suc-

ceed in the class-

room and in

sports. There

they learned how

to cope with

attending classes,

budgeting time

and maintaining sports and scholarship

standards.” Jensen recognized these ses-

sions were important to the success of the

UM student athlete.

But later, funding for these classes, which

had been in the budget of the Psychology

Department, was eliminated. Answering

the University’s action, “In 2001,” she

says, “another donor and I stepped in and

picked up the costs of the course.” Her

will stipulates that her annual commitment

will continue for five years after her death.

Another target of Jensen’s philanthropy is

the Department of Anthropology.

Each winter, Jensen

travels from her

farm in Chester to

visit her eldest

daughter in

Missoula. Several

years ago, she began attending archeology

and anthropology classes at UM. Dee Taylor

was her first professor.

“I became so impressed by the instruction

and the students,” she explains, “that in

1991, when the University established a

memorial scholarship in his name, I con-

tributed. Later, Taylor’s widow requested

that my name be added to his. Now it is

the Dr. Dee C. Taylor and Sylvia Jensen

Scholarship, awarded annually to an

anthropology major, preferably one study-

ing archeology.”

Jensen has attained UM Benefactor status

for total giving exceeding $100,000,

signaling that she is one of the University’s

most generous donors. Regarding her

gifts, she says, “It’s the least I can do. I’m

happy to be in a position of being able to

support UM.”

When Sylvia Jensen attendedanthropology and archaeologyclasses at UM, one of heryounger classmates was SandyMorris ’94. Later, Morris re-ceived partial funding for her UMeducation through the Taylor and Jensen Scholarship, whichtargets anthropology majors,especially those with an archaeol-ogy concentration. • Continuingher interest in the subject, Jensenparticipated in an annual dig at a Montana archeology site, and

again the pair’s paths crossed: Morris was the principal investigator.Add to that, the fact that Morris grew up in a small community nearJensen’s hometown. Today, Sandy Morris French pursues her career asa U.S. Forest Service archaeologist. And Jensen remains a benefactorof future archaeologists.

Teamwork is the key

word for Carol Brewer, associate dean

of the College of Arts and Sciences and

professor of biology, and Paul Alaback,

professor of forest ecology.

Together, the married couple has estab-

lished an endowment — the Alaback

and Brewer Melipal Research Award — to

fund study in Patagonia.

“This is an investment in graduate educa-

tion,” says Brewer, “and in graduate

students who will make discoveries that push

the frontiers of their fields. Offering

these opportunities to travel, research and

further understanding of how ecological

systems work is significant. This research

provides everyone involved with a cross-

continental experience.”

The Patagonian region, encompassing

Argentina and part of Chile, in many ways

is comparable to the landscapes and

ecosystems in the northern Rockies and

Pacific Northwest. The couple believes

that, in order to more fully comprehend

the ecosystems of Montana, it’s impor-

tant to explore South America.

“Study there provides

University of Montana

students,” says Alaback,

“with an extraordi-

nary opportunity to

learn about the

roles that climate,

geology, human

history and evolu-

tionary ecology

play in explaining

the ecological pat-

terns that occur in

these two regions.”

After taking students to study in South America, Paul Alaback andCarol Brewer became interested in investing in international work.

“By accessing funds for travel and research,” says Alaback,“students will have a chance to make comparisons and see

the formation of processes that happen in time and space, particularly in this era of global warming.” Suchchallenging study in international settings can provide “a transformational experience,” he points out. •Brewer adds that, as ecologists, “we work in an international field in large collaborations. Austria, Spain,Scotland, Germany and Sweden all have interests in

Patagonia. The question is how we can involve them inthe research mix, especially in working with our stu-

dents.” • “Experiences abroad can provide participants life-changing moments,” says Alaback. “They can totally alter

how you look at the world. Carol and I are in a position to estab-lish funding. It’s important to offer these opportunities to students. It’s the legacy of our tenure.” • Melipal is the Mapuche Indian word forthe Southern Cross constellation, a nighttime sight common in thesouthern hemisphere.

When Charlotte Oliver first visited Hamilton, she was appalled at the condition of many of its historic buildings. She recognized the need for repair and upkeep and set about doing something. • “Preservation became my passion. Myexpertise is putting people together [for effective outcomes], so my work started there.” • Her focus was the DalyMansion, built by Marcus Daly, baron of the Anaconda Copper Mines. “In the early ’90s, the state owned the property,and the Historical Society of Montana managed it. But the house was at the bottom of the list for funding.” • Charlotteapproached UM President George Dennison and asked if the University would take over administration of the house.Understanding its promise and historic significance to UM and the state, he said yes. “The Daly Mansion board was over-joyed that UM would take on the responsibility,” she recalls. Today, the Daly Mansion is open to visitors and theMontana Osher Lifelong Learning Institute frequently holds classes there. Charlotte terms the University’s decision “a win-win situation.”

Philanthropy is all

about connections, says a longtime obser-

ver of fundraising campaigns.

Proof are Charlie and Charlotte Oliver’s

gifts to the University.

“Phyllis and Dennis Washington intro-

duced us to UM,” Charlie recalls. “They

hosted an event in Palm Springs, and

we chatted with Jerry Brown, then dean

of the School of Journalism and a

classmate [though not an acquaintance]

from my days at Auburn University.

We also met Jerry Fetz, who was then dean

of the Davidson Honors College.”

What Charlie learned from these con-

versations was this: “Here is a university

in a remote area, doing so much with

so little. UM’s accomplishments amazed

us,” he says.

Soon, the Olivers turned this

interest into action. They

began funding the Presi-

dential Scholar program.

“One of the first recipients,” says Charlie,

“was a young woman brought up in a rural

background, a Spanish major. When she

entered the University, she was so shy she

hardly could carry on a conversation.”

He calls her development at UM over four

years, which he tracked, “phenomenal.”

A second student was a Native American,

born on the reservation. “She had the

opportunity to attend Harvard,” he says,

“but she came to UM for drama. She

told us she wanted to help her people rise

above their current circumstances.”

Charlie Oliver’s work at Fluor Daniel took

the couple around the world. Then, in 1989,

they bought property in Hamilton, built a

home there and made their move perma-

nent. “It has changed our lives to be here.”

And with their generosity to stu-

dents, they continue to change

lives, not only their own, but

others’ — well into the future.

WarrenWilcox ’65 cannot overstate

the importance of building The University

of Montana’s Phyllis J. Washington Edu-

cation Center.

“The most important school on campus is

education,” says Wilcox, who is chair of the

UM Foundation Board of Trustees and,

with his wife Betsy Ross Wilcox ’66, donors

to UM Foundation operations, the Gilkey

Center for Executive Education and the

Washington Education Center. “Without

question, the School of Education is a key

ingredient for a university.”

The current School of Education, which

occupies 29,000 square feet in a nearly

60-year-old building, is outmoded, under-

sized and not

equipped to deliver

distance education.

In a rural state like

Montana, offering

online classes is

increasingly impor-

tant to equalize

learning opportunities.

UM’s School of Education is vital to the

University’s infrastructure, says Wilcox,

because it trains future educators — in real

classroom settings. Students at the school

benefit from the attention and experiences

of education professionals before they

stand before classrooms around the state —

a collaboration that benefits UM

students as much as the youngest

learners in all corners of Montana.

New teachers frequently find that

their schools have more modern

equipment and facilities than the

During its 75-year history, the School of Education has assured students theopportunities to practice their futureprofession under the watchful eyes ofprofessionals. • Since its early years, the school has primarily prepared stu-dents to become teachers and schooladministrators. “The faculty and stu-dents surely did not envision develop-ments in technology and opportu-nities for educators we enjoy today,”notes Warren Wilcox. • The Phyllis J.Washington Education Center is key to the continued ability of the school to educate future teachers.

INfluencing generations

Tuniversities from which they graduated.

The center’s facilities will help UM students

acquire competence, confidence and

comfort with the most up-to-date tech-

nology and instruction.

“The heart of the University’s mission is

education,” says Wilcox. “What the Uni-

versity does that no one else does is to

develop ‘the education side’ of learning.

“The University understands the broader

picture,” says Wilcox. “We need a School of

Education to attract students, who will

go on to teach the students of Montana.”

In his dedication remarks for

the UM School of Journalism’s Don

Anderson Hall, retiring Dean Jerry Brown

called the school’s namesake, Don Anderson,

“a man of intelligence, diplomacy and

compassion” and “an ideal model for stu-

dents and the practice of journalism.”

Giving generously to its construction —

both in time and funding — were Sue

Anderson Talbot ’80 and her husband

John. Private donations, many of which

the couple personally solicited, made

up almost 75 percent of the total $14 mil-

lion cost for the state-of-the art facility.

Times change; so does journalism. Report-

ing techniques advance as technology

moves forward, and the school needed to

address these matters.

John Talbot knows this well. “For almost

20 years, I taught a news media manage-

ment course, which I designed,” he

says. “I was impressed by my UM faculty

colleagues. They were head and shoulders

above those at other universities with

which I was familiar.”

Talbot explains that the 1999 hir-

ing of Dean Brown was

intended to help the

school bring together

print and broadcast

journalism. Brown’s

goal was to inspire

and realize a build-

ing that moves with the

new speed of Internet and television-driven

journalism. In Anderson Hall, dedicated

in May, Brown vowed to uphold the highest

principles of journalism.

It was, Talbot says, a five-year fundraising

project, propelled by the strong conviction

that he and his wife held that UM’s School

of Journalism is among the best in the

nation, and will continue to attract highly

qualified students and faculty.

“The fundraising effort was

successful because of con-

tributions from people

who cared about and

honored Don Ander-

son,” says Talbot.

“He served as an inspi-

ration and model.”

Anderson Hall addresses the needs of an enrollment that has grown from 100 majors to the current 500 students, pursuing studies in print, photojournalism and broadcastnews and production. • Print journalists need to be famil-

iar with principles of broadcasting,and broadcasters must use funda-mentals, common to print, in their work. Photographers incorporatedesign in composing effectiveshots; electronic and photojournal-ists influence one another. • Thecurriculum and facilities bringthese diverse elements together.

TheUniversity’s Native

American Center — the first facility in the

United States designed expressly to accom-

modate a Department of Native American

Studies, a student services office and related

campus programming — will begin con-

struction in spring 2008. President George

Dennison describes the center as promising

to “help define the future of higher edu-

cation for Native Americans studying in

Montana.” Others concur.

“I’ve always felt this was a vital project for the

community, the state and the nation,”

comments Terry Payne ’63, chairman of

Payne Financial Group, in Missoula. He and

his family were lead donors to the Native

American Center. “It’s a universal project

that transcends the University,” he says.

Selena Eagle Speaker, senior education

major and a Blackfoot, is a student employee

in the American Indian Student Services

Program office. “Today,” she explains,

“if you ask for the Native

American Studies

building, you are

directed to a for-

mer residence, one

of the oldest and

smallest campus buildings.

“It’s important for Native

Americans to have a place [on

campus] where they feel comfortable,”

she points out. They need to know “that

there are Native American staff here that

support them in their

educational goals.”

Joe McDonald ’58, ’65,

’82, president of Salish

Kootenai College, pre-

dicts the center will be a

place of welcome, not only for Native

American students but for all others as

well. “Its position on the Oval, the last

such site available, promises it will become

a campus focal point.”

The University expects the center to evolve

into a common meeting ground for

tribal leaders, regardless of age, to come

together and examine challenges in

their communities. “Natives are so much

a part of . . . Montana,” says Adam

Sings in the Timber, a junior majoring in

journalism and a Crow tribal member.

“Having a building for us tells me the Uni-

versity sees Native Americans as an impor-

tant part of the community.”

Native American students at The University of Montanaand Montana State University, aspiring to enter graduateschool, will have the opportunity to compete for two fellowships annually thanks to funding from the Dennisand Phyllis Washington Foundation. • Mike Halligan’85, executive director of the foundation, explains the goalof the $10,000 fellowship: [With this fellowship,] “wehope to create greater diversity on campus and help stu-dents learn more about shared values and culture. Wewant to offer opportunities to those individuals who, butfor the fellowship, would not be in school.” • “Thesefellowships,” comments David Strobel ’72, dean of theUM Graduate School, “are a significant contribution tothe strategic diversity goals of our two graduate uni-versities.” • Patrick Weasel Head ’71, director of UMAmerican Indian Services, adds that American Indianstudents see a graduate degree as key to leadershipopportunities. “But the financial obstacles they encounteroften are insurmountable.” The Washington fellowshipswill significantly mitigate their financial burden.

Opened in spring

2007, the Biomedical Research Facility

and Science Learning Complex promises

to enhance the University’s already pres-

tigious program in research and scholarly

productivity. Over the past decade, the

programs, now housed in the Skaggs

Building addition, have attracted world-

class researchers, and the studies that they

pursue address almost all major current

medical problems.

“Clearly,” says David Forbes, dean of the

College of Health Professions and

Biomedical Sciences, “UM scientists are

involved in research with tremendous

implications for Montanans, in particular,

and for the world.”

Centers located within the facility focus on

many pressing health issues. For example,

some research at the Environmental Health

Sciences Center deals with problems spe-

cific to Montana, such as those caused by

asbestos mining (Libby), build-up of

arsenic behind fresh water dams (Milltown)

and lead contamination in homes (Butte).

At the Center for Structural and Functional

Neuroscience, research is ongoing involv-

ing health care in cases such as Alzheimer’s

disease, stroke, brain tumors and spinal

cord injury. In addition, the U.S. Depart-

ment of Defense funds UM research on

trauma caused by chemical agents.

The University partners with

St. Patrick Hospital

and Health

Sciences Center

in supporting

three institutes:

the International

Heart Institute

of Montana, the

Montana Neuroscience Institute and the

Montana Cancer Institute. The labs with-

in these divisions translate basic research

into the treatment of diseases affecting

Montanans: heart disease, stroke, cancer

and Alzheimer’s. Clinicians at each insti-

tute conduct experimental clinical trials,

as well as research that helps connect “lab

science” to bedside treatment.

Vernon Grund, chair of the Department

of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences,

comments: “This complex means we’ll

provide a stimulating environment,

not only for those already

on board but also for new

world-class scientists

with growing research

programs who are

attracted to this state-

of-the-art biomedical

research facility.”

Each of the main research floors of the facility has three interconnected labs to facilitateinterdisciplinary research. This creates an efficient system for scientists and students,since labs are designed around types of research and associated research function,rather than around individual investigators. • Significance of the building to a ruralstate like Montana is great. Its programs and facilities encourage students, techniciansand postdoctoral students to stay in Montana after completing their training. • In2006, the College of Health Professions and Biomedical Sciences ranked seventh nation-ally out of more than 100 schools and colleges of pharmacy in biomedical funding.The same year, the college brought in more than $14 million in support, making it thehighest externally funded unit on the Missoula campus. • Major funding for this addi-tion came from L.S. (Sam) and Aline Skaggs and their ALSAM Foundation.

Oncken grew up on a

farm near Cedar Rapids,

Iowa. “This is where I

first learned about conservation,” he says.

“My dad was an early conservationist. For

example, he set aside cover for animals —

hedges, shrubs, trees — because he recog-

nized that they needed these in order to

survive.” Oncken says his early exposure to

wildlife conservation carries on to this day.

Education and Research Endowment,

in support of the Boone and Crockett

Education and Research Program. For

every dollar contributed to the program

he and his wife Penney agreed to donate

a dollar, up to $250,000.

“It’s a nudge to get people moving,” says

Oncken. “As people continue to expand

into the outdoors, we are losing more and

more wildlife habitat. For decades, we had

no interaction with wild animals. All of

a sudden, we are living where animals have

lived for thousands of years.”

dore Roosevelt that deals with issues of

conservation of wildlife and promotes eth-

ical hunting, as leaders in this effort.

“The conservation movement is growing,”

he says. “Pieces of information about wild-

life conservation have always been around.

To bring this information together, in a

more specific, comprehensive form, has

been one of our goals. We should be able

to take a local scenario and extrapolate it

into a worldwide outlook.”

The University of Montana recently hired PaulKrausman as the third Boone and Crockett Professorto replace Jack Ward Thomas, former chief of the U.S. Forest Service, who held the title of Boone andCrockett Professor from 1997 until his retirement in 2005. • Krausman comes to UM from the Univer-sity of Arizona, where he taught classes and con-ducted research on large mammals around the world.He worked primarily on desert bighorn sheep and elk in North America and did considerable work inAsia. • In 2006, Krausman received the prestigiousAldo Leopold Memorial Award for “distinguished serv-ice to wildlife conservation,” presented annually byThe Wildlife Society. • The University is committed toraising the Wildlife Conservation-Education and

Research Endowment that will support the programs and students supervisedby Krausman. • Funds raised will provide stable project funding to covergraduate student stipends, tuition waivers, fellowships and scholarships,resources for communicating research findings and direct project support.INvolving

Thirty-one years after Jack Murdock’s death, the chari-table trust he founded continues to enrich the quality of life in the Pacific Northwest. It fulfills its mission by providing grants and enrichment programs to organi-zations seeking to strengthen the region’s educational,spiritual and cultural base in creative and sustainableways. • “Because of our emphasis on due diligence and our careful scrutiny of applicants,” commentsCastles, “we serve as a bellwether for other foundations.A Murdock grant is like the Good Housekeeping seal of approval.”

JackMurdock’s profile on

the Web site of the charitable trust he

created reflects the tenets of the organiza-

tion. It reads: “Jack Murdock was both

an idealist and a realist and a lifelong seeker

of new insights. He believed in science

as a main source of knowledge, and know-

ledge as a key ingredient to addressing

and solving the issues and challenges of

our world.”

The M.J. Murdock Chari-

table Trust has a long

history of support

for the University,

providing more

than $4.6 million

for various science

departments at the

University, including

chemistry, pharmacy,

geology, biological

sciences and molecu-

lar biology.

Murdock was principal

co-founder of Tektronix,

based in Beaverton,

Oregon. Says Murdock

trustee John Castles, “Tektronix’s emphasis

on research and development is part of its

proud tradition. [This culture of discov-

ery] influences our work at the trust [in

determining grantees].”

UM, Castles notes, is a land-grant institu-

tion, which indicates that research is a

significant element of its mission. “The

University,” Castles observes, “has devel-

oped characteristics that set it apart [from

its competitors]. Particularly significant

is its location in the Rocky

Mountain West.” Students

and faculty here have

“a field lab as big as

the state.”

Castles cites the

importance of

Professor John

Craighead’s groundbreaking research in

many aspects of wildlife research that

led the University to establish the John J.

Craighead Endowed Chair in Wildlife

Biology. The trust has made a major

contribution to this effort. Castles also

commends Professor Dan Pletscher

who, he says, “has done a marvelous job

of elevating the Wildlife Biology Depart-

ment to one of the nation’s top five — and

moving up.”

It’s the job of the trust “to seek out and

fund pockets of education throughout the

five Pacific Northwest states.” Castles

mentions as special interests of the trust

at UM: research in freshwater biology,

the Lubrecht Experimental Forest, the

Blackfoot River Recreation Corridor,

the College of Forestry and Conservation,

and the College of Health Professions

and Biomedical Sciences.

The University and the Murdock Trust

have a unique and special relationship,

largely forged by Castles’ father, James B.

Castles ’35, one of three original trustees.

In 1995, upon his father’s death, John

succeeded him as a trustee. Both men also

served as trustees of the UM Foundation.

“Learning is ever in the freshness of its youth, even for

the old.” Aeschylus, Agememnon, l. 584.

Whateveryour age, exercising your

mind is as important as exercising your

body. Accuracy of this statement on a local

level can be found in the increasing num-

ber of older adults who belong to the

Montana Osher Lifelong Learning Institute

(MOLLI), administered by the University’s

continuing education program.

MOLLI, explains Sharon Alexander, dean

of continuing education, offers indivi-

duals over age 55 a diverse collection of

non-credit, short courses, in fall, winter

and spring. She describes

students as “curious about many topics and

passionate to learn. Our environment,”

she continues, “is accessible and innova-

tive, meaning adults from all backgrounds

and levels of education may pursue

learning. We concentrate on learning for

learning’s sake.”

The University began the MOLLI pro-

gram in 2005. A member of the founding

MOLLI council, Ann Boone, points to

the quality of the faculty and the breadth

of offerings. “For example, we have courses

in history, philosophy, art and music. We

don’t duplicate adult education; we don’t

tell you how to operate a digital camera.”

The Bernard Osher Foundation is a California-based philanthropicorganization. It provides signifi-cant operating funds to a nationalnetwork of lifelong learning insti-tutes on university campuses, fromMaine to Hawaii. • Currently,there are 115 institutes in most ofthe 50 states. If UM reaches amembership of 500 by 2009, theUM program could qualify toreceive an additional endowmentgrant that would assure continua-tion of the institute.

Teachers are well-schooled and qualified

in their subject matter. Many are current

or emeritus faculty. “They really enjoy

teaching our group,” Boone says. “We are

questioning, wondering, engaged and

aging healthily.” Support from the Osher

Foundation makes membership and course

fees affordable for most participants.

Alexander calls older adults “a valuable

resource for society. Through the

institute, we speak to their continuing

intellectual needs.”

with energizing the learning environment

at the institute and with drawing top-

ranked researchers as collaborators.

A native of Spain, Duran pioneered re-

search in the area of heart valves — most

notably reconstruction and replacement.

Prior to his current positions at IHI and

as a professor of cardiovascular sciences

at UM, Duran was chairman of the car-

diovascular department at King Faisal

Specialist Hospital and Research Center

in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. “Because of

Duran’s presence [in Montana], our

national ratings in treating cardiovascular

disease have soared,” says Lambros.

Lambros’s co-chair, Jim Coté, a resident of

the Bitterroot and friend of the University,

says that when he arrived in Missoula from

the San Francisco Bay Area, “I looked at

the make-up of the region and examined

what it needed. Clearly, we have a combi-

nation of seniors and Baby Boomers

requiring medical services. Cancer and

heart disease top the list. It’s incredibly

important that we

keep faculty at

St. Patrick

Hospital and

researchers at the Heart Institute.” And the

effect of Duran’s research and leadership is

an undeniable magnet.

Recognizing that Duran is the world’s

foremost specialist in his area, Coté and

Lambros are setting high standards for

the individual who is to fill the endowed

chair. “This person,” says Coté, “must

be equal in temperament, talent and

conviction to Duran. We’re pushing

hard to fulfill our commitment to

establishing the chair.”

Learning is discovering.Discovering is learning.

From the outset of our

historic $100-million campaign, our appeals have

encouraged our UM family to invest in discovery. And,

with your unselfish and generous contributions over

the past five years, you are helping us teach those who

are discovering and those who will help others dis-

cover. • Hand-in-hand, we continue to nurture and main-

tain The University of Montana as a place of learning.

A place of discovery. A place of influence, nationally and

globally. • Our campaign goals have targeted scholar-

ships and fellowships; faculty enhancement; program

support, and renovation and construction. Worthy causes,

all. • We ask you to envision, with us, what the Uni-

versity will be 10 or 20 years from now. Will our graduates

reinforce their commitment to Montana by continuing

as integral parts of their local communities? Will our alumni

use their education to teach in developing countries?

Will our medical discoveries affect lives globally? Will our

environmental findings influence decisions worldwide?

• For this to occur, we must stand firm, proud and inspir-

ing for future generations. With your ongoing interest

and support, we can continue to

harvest the benefits of your

investment in discovery.

“The Haynes Scholarship has been a great

encouragement for me to go on and pursue my dreams.

I plan to go to law school and focus specifically

on international conflict mediation and human rights

violations. Receiving this scholarship has shown

me that there are people who are willing to support who

I am and where I hope to go in life.” Peter Bailon,

Sophomore, Anthropology, Missoula

The Foundationmaintains more than 850 distinct funds that

provide donors with a great deal of flexi-

bility in identifying how their donations are

used. Funds are distributed to the Uni-

versity in four ways. A gift may be Restricted

or Unrestricted, Current or Endowed. •

Restricted Gifts are gifts whose use

is directed by the donor. UnrestrictedGifts are made available to the University

for its areas of greatest need. Some unre-

stricted gifts fund a small portion of the

Foundation’s operations. • CurrentGifts are those in which the donated

amount is immediately available for use.

Endowed Gifts are pooled and

invested in the Foundation’s Long-Term

Investment Portfolio. In accordance

with its spending policy, 4.25% of amounts

so invested (including all accumulated

investment income) is made available for

FOUNDATION A S S E T S

FOUNDATION D I S T R I B U T I O N S

A major component of The University of Montana Foundation’s mission is to

effectively administer, invest and distribute funds privately donated for use by The University of Montana. • To best meet the

needs of its donors, the Foundation’s assets are held and managed in a variety of forms. As shown below, the majority of the

Foundation’s assets are held in its Long-Term Investment Portfolio. Most funds held in this portfolio are related to

endowed gifts where assets are invested for perpetuity, with investment earnings used to make regular payments each year

in accordance with the donors’ designations. A small portion of these funds are held in outside trusts and managed by others.

• Operating Funds include funds given

by donors for the immediate or near-term

use by the University. These are amounts used

to provide current-year scholarships, support

a wide variety of University programs and

fund the construction of University facilities.

Also included in Operating Funds are funds

available for the direct operation of the

Foundation. • Annuity Assets are those

donor funds used to generate annuity pay-

ments for planned giving donors. These assets

are held and managed on behalf of the

Foundation by an outside firm that also provides fund administration to the Foundation’s planned giving donors. Prior to

2005 Annuity Assets were held in the Long-Term Investment Portfolio. • Other Assets consist primarily of trust assets

managed outside the Foundation, donated real estate and pledge receivables.

I N V E S T M E N T SFOUNDATION

The University of

Montana Foundation Board of Trustees,

through its Investment Committee, over-

sees the management of the Foundation’s

Long-Term Investment Portfolio as well

as Operating Funds. The Board’s invest-

ment policy for the Long-Term Investment

Portfolio is outlined in the Foundation’s

Statement of Investment Objectives and

Guidelines. The policy is designed to pro-

vide a stable, predictable and growing

stream of investment income for current

use, while preserving earnings power

of the Foundation’s endowment assets for

the future. • The Investment Committee,

acting with the assistance of an outside

investment consultant, has established an

asset allocation for use in managing the

Long-Term Investment Portfolio. The actual

allocation at June 30, 2007, is illustrated

above left. • Working with its investment

consultant, the Investment Committee

selects and routinely manages investment

managers and investment vehicles

(most often institutional mutual funds)

within each asset allocation.

Our mission is to gather, manage and dis-

tribute assets for the benefit of The University of Montana. The University of

Montana Foundation was established in 1951 on the belief that higher edu-

cation would be greatly enhanced through the infusion of private gifts. We

serve the University as a charitable non-profit organization under Internal

Revenue Service 501(c)(3) designations. The volunteer Board of Trustees

maintains fiduciary responsibility for the UM Foundation and embraces its

goals: to work with the University community to ascertain financial needs of

the University; to raise private funds to meet those needs, and to promote

sound stewardship of private assets. The Board has authorized assessment of

minimal fees to help defray the costs associated with raising funds, managing

investments and other administrative functions.
