Oil Boom Hits Glendive College

Inside Glendive College 

The oil boom has caused the Glendive College a serious disadvantages. One occasion is that the hotels and motels around the college have increased their rental prices from $400 to $800~$1000. This caused college students to find shelters outside the college more difficult. Also Glendive College is struggling with hiring staff members.

Due to the increased material prices, this brings serious problems from Montana to North Dakota. for example, professors are not willing to come to teach in the places, and these worries the villages for their near future.The jobs are being vacant.
Also the students have to go work at the oil boom instead of attending college right after high school graduation. However, there are some upsides, which they get good jobs in the oil region era.
These days the colleges are giving solutions for the oil boom, and these come out to be great solutions. For example, college administrators are talking to an oil field company to do safety training in the Dawson Campus this summer. Employees taking the training would live in the dorms, which usually are empty in the summer. On the other hand, there are students who work fully at the oil boom, and also take college courses living in the campus. Despite the problems,  the boom has brought in more state money to campus at a time when other parts of the country are cutting higher budgets. And the boom has created silent opportunities for the school also.
