Trout fry create a rainbow of light in a lab near the Aquatic Sciences Lab in Pony. The lab is one tool helping Montana State University scientists understand the mysteries of whirling disease, which once threatened fish in Montana’s wild streams and rivers. The project is just one of the reasons MSU has often been called Trout U. Cover photo by Kelly Gorham.
