confusion, perhaps about two buildings
editThe article, in this version last edited by me, has contradictory information. Perhaps there is confusion about the university and the advertising agency controlling two different Masonic buildings? Can anyone clarify. I may have been incorrect to assume the no-longer-available university page did support the information in the article as of October 2013. --doncram 19:16, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- I searched repeatedly for anything about an Urban Institute anywhere in Montana. There is no such thing, and never was, AFAICT. The info in the article, which I just removed, was as follows (and appears entirely false): "Originally built by the local Masonic lodges as a meeting hall, the Masons outgrew it and moved to a new building. The old building was sold to Montana State University-Billings and was serving as its Urban Institute in 2013.[1]"

- AFAICT, it is speculation, manufactured that the local lodges "outgrew" anything, and it seems outright false that the building was ever sold to Montana State University. --doncram 00:27, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
