Here’s a sampling of some other professorial sidelights:

English Professor Andrew Kirk once taught a class in a bamboo hut suspended over a lotus-filled drainage canal at Mandalay University in Burma (Myanmar), before continuing his journey down the Irrawady River to Bagan.

Biology Professor Claire Oakley has won blue ribbons at MontanaFair for baked goods.

Aviation Director Dan Hargrove was a pilot for Air Force Two, the airplane used by the Vice President.

Academic Vice President Anthony Piltz does “sympathy restorations” of old cars, with students.

English Professor Jacqueline Dundas, who is related to the founders of RMC, once spent her summers helping round up horses in the Yellowstone Park back country.

Academics

You will find Rocky Mountain College professors challenging and interesting in the classroom, but sometimes the classroom is not confined by walls.

You may find yourself in a field laboratory in Yellowstone National Park where you’re examining wolf kill.

You may wander the Yellowstone Art Museum to view an exhibition of French Impressionists.

You might even find classrooms conducted at 10,000 feet in a Beechcraft airplane.

Classrooms in historic campus buildings are the norm, but instruction may also be held at archaeological digs in Bethsaida, Israel or old Vienna. Our students visit the site where Custer met his fate and then discuss the battle with American Indian students on campus.

Wherever the classroom is there are no back rows. With a 14:1 student to faculty ratio, you’ll have a ringside seat. You’ll also enjoy the fact that professors with Ph.Ds are teaching. No teaching assistants, no back rows and no barriers to learning are essential ingredients to a great education at RMC.
You will get to know your professors in the classroom and around campus, but they also have interesting histories and personal interests that make relationships with them even more interesting.
