A brief description of the institution’s main campus and other aspects of the institutional boundary used to complete this report:
Montana State University's main campus is located in Bozeman, MT. In addition, MSU has five other affiliated campuses - MSU Billings, MSU Northern, Great Falls College MSU, City College at MSU Billings, and Gallatin College MSU. This report will only cover MSU-Bozeman's main campus and the buildings, policies, operations, and individuals within that boundary.

Which of the following features are present on campus and which are included within the institutional boundary?:
Present? Included?
Agricultural school Yes Yes
Medical school No No
Other professional school with labs and clinics (e.g. dental, nursing, pharmacy, public health, veterinary) No No
Satellite campus Yes No
Farm larger than 5 acres or 2 hectares Yes Yes
Agricultural experiment station larger than 5 acres or 2 hectares Yes No
Hospital No No

If there are features present that are not included within the boundary, provide:

The rationale for excluding any features that are present from the institutional boundary:
Montana State University's agriculture experiment stations and satellite campuses operate independently from the power grid of the MSU main campus. Their power usage is not representative of measures taken on campus to increase efficiency and policies and regulations do not necessarily apply across all MSU affiliated colleges.
