 4t Focusing on some of the interesting photography from MSU’s past, provided by Publications News Services, Bozeman is seen in the early 1900’s. Pictured on page 8, Bozeman is shown complete with snowpacked streets and line-in parked cars. The photograph shows Main Street, looking west. Below Bozeman’s parade is a photo of the women’s basketball team of 1905, and the 1907 Bozeman baseball team, the “Champions of the Northwest’’. Featured on page 9 are photographs of an early disaster-the burning of MSU’s chemistry building in 1916. 9

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bozeman Means ‘Montana State University’ Bozeman is Montana State University and MSU is Bozeman. The two are inseparable and synonymous. One could not exist without the other. As much as it sometimes hates to admit, Bozeman would not be the same if the university had not been established there. Education has surpassed agriculture as the valley’s mainstay, and it acts like a set of stacked dominoes; everything relies on the university. The university attracts students who, in turn, support Bozeman’s many businesses and landlords who provide jobs for employees who perhaps have spouses that provide services, such as dental medicine or building contracting and the list goes on and on. A cycle is created, with each part related to another.
