    Learning Center Student Survey

    Provide Input on Current & Future Services
    Please let the Learning Center know how we can best support all UMW students reach their academic goals. By completing this survey, you will help the Learning Center leadership and staff understand what is working for students currently and guide the services the Learning Center will offer in the future.

    Upcoming Moodle Availability Issues
    Please note that UMW students and faculty will be unable to log into Moodle during the following times:
    • July 27, 11 PM-July 28, 6 AM
    • August 1, 11 PM-August 2, 4 AM
    During those times, the University of Montana is updating internet infrastructure systemwide, making it impossible for UMW users to access Moodle through single sign on. If you log into Moodle immediately prior to those times, you will continue to have access to your courses.


    Call for Poetry and Artwork
    Do you have some artwork or poetry you would like to share?

    The UMW Theater Program is searching for poetry and artwork that focuses on mental health and wellness. In support of our Every Brilliant Thing production, we are creating a special installation in Beier Auditorium Feb. 10-12. The collected poems will be recorded by actors and played throughout the theater pre- and post-show. The poems also be displayed in the lobby, where the artworks will be installed.

    If you would like your work exhibited as part of this event, submit a photo of your artwork or a copy of your poem before February 1 to stephen.seder@umwestern.edu. For anonymous submissions, there is a drop box outside of Main Hall 315B.
