Montana State University officials joined community members in Kalispell on Tuesday to break ground on the final of five new nursing education facilities under construction around the state.
A $101 million donation from Whitefish couple Mark and Robyn Jones made it possible for the university to launch the building initiative.
The Mark and Robyn Jones College of Nursing — named in 2021 following the announcement of the couple’s donation — had previously been operating out of leased spaces across the university system’s five campuses.
