Students participate in Student Government, Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society, various student-centered clubs and a variety of other on-campus and on-line programming. Great Falls is located right in the middle of Montana and is known as the basecamp for adventure. Whether it be fishing or kayaking on the Missouri River, adventuring (hiking, camping, and snow skiing) in the Little Belts, or taking a scenic drive along the Rocky Mountain front, outdoorsy students have plenty of options. Great Falls also gives you a long list of things to try out indoors. There are museums, growing microbreweries, theatres, symphonies, and some great food.
