Hello there everyone.
I am considering returning to college within the next couple of years (nontraditional student) and study Pharmacy. Unfortunately this will require me to leave Maine as the courses are not offered anywhere in the state. I have located some schools I feel are acceptable, in areas I feel to be acceptable(no cities).
I am strongly leaning towards The University of Montana at Missoula, though I have never been out in that area before. The wife and I are considering moving out there this coming fall(07) to give ourselves a little time to get rooted before I return to school....maybe part time in the second semester.
So, long story short, if anyone who lives in Montana or has in the past wants to give me an on the ground impression of the life there that wouyld be great.
To give a base line, I live in downeast Maine. We are heavily dependent on both the fishing industry and the tourism. I was raised in the former, and now do the later. The economy here isn't looking too good. As I understand only two states had decreasing economies in 2005.....one suffered Katrina......the other was Maine.
I posted something similar a while back on another forum and had some good feedback.
Any help would be great.
Thanks.
