What's the Math & Science all about?

Governor Brian Schweitzer and First Lady Nancy Schweitzer share a joint interest in science: Brian is a soil scientist and Nancy is a botanist. Together they want to help students discover the wonders of math and science. The Governor and First Lady’s Math and Science Initiative invites Montana’s youth to discover the many opportunities to learn about science and math in K-12 schools and higher education, find out about career opportunities and explore Montana’s splendid surroundings.
