| Salish Kootenai College (SKC) intends to use its Tribal Colleges and Universities Program (TCUP) grant to construct a teacher education building. In only 4 years, SKC teacher education has grown from 1 to 3 bachelor's degrees, 4 to 9 faculty positions, and 52 to 246 students. By 2012, the college anticipates hiring two additional faculty members to meet the projected enrollment of 300 students. The project will serve the 7,739 low- and moderate-income Native American community members of the Flathead Indian Reservation.
