2011 brings with it the convening of the 10th BTI.  Only one session will be offered

  13. The BTI observes a Kopprasch-free environment.

Situated at the base of the world's largest flat-topped mountain and surrounded on three sides by mountains and mesas climbing to heights of 10,000 feet, Grand Junction provides unmatched scenic beauty to go along with the fantastic weather.  The surrounding area provides easy access to rafting, hiking, golfing, rock climbing, spelunking, fishing and so much more!


Mesa State College is about people, places and possibilities.  The faculty is focused on teaching and small classes mean individualized instruction in an environment where people know you name.  Here, students gain a well-rounded liberal arts education that provides the foundation for their future.

The Barry Tuckwell Institute is

proudly presented in partnership with

the Mesa State College Music Department.

Countdown to 2011 BTI!
