Please place the following item on the agenda under new
business for the January meeting of the Board of Regents:
Request from the Leadership College that the Montana University System provide meeting space, organizational logistics, marketing and other such assistance as may further the Mission of the Leadership College as consistent with the Mission of the Montana University System.

you will find the December 13, 2001 Draft Charter for the Leadership College
which has been approved by the Governing Board. Under this Draft, the
training and forums which make up the Leadership College "would be held on
college or university campuses who would be asked to provide logistical
support." Keeping in mind that the purpose of the Leadership College
is provide education, the Montana University System with its expertise in
education makes it an ideal partner for the Leadership College.
With assistance of University Relations from all campuses,
and others from the University System, the Leadership College can put together
its business plan, marketing package, plan and arrange sessions, refine and
improve its operation.
Although we believe the Montana University System is a
perfect partner for the Leadership College, this is simply a request. If
the University System cannot commit at this time, we will ask K-12 public
schools and local government, who we believe will be active participants in the
Leadership College, to provide meeting space and other logistical help.

Legislative Services Division, has agreed to serve as Dean of the Leadership
College. The members of the Governing Board are as follows:
