S.E.A. Change

We support all women by helping them embrace and nurture their talents and by showcasing their contributions. We elevate all Grizzlies through a tomorrow-proof education and equitable learning environments that expand their horizons.

Here, women learn not as a women, but as equals — as leaders. Women learn to take their seats at the table and own all that makes them unique, strong members of a global community.

Here, women develop confidence in their own value, because Montana and UM cultivate it, and the future demands it.

Nationally, women attend and succeed in college at higher rates than men, yet this 
fact is not translating into outcomes that reflect workplace equity or adequate gender diversity in leadership across sectors. This yawning gap that develops after Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ graduate begs a question we at UM seek to understand and answer: why does the leadership divide develop post-graduation, and what can we do at UM to help 
eliminate it?

An empowering learning environment is part of UM's effort to answer this question and impact change upstream of the challenge. UM Ñý¼§Ö±²¥ are not just capable of overcoming the gap but also are changemakers who will help to eliminate it altogether for future generations.
