North Idaho College will drop appeal over Swayne reinstatement
North Idaho College trustees will drop an appeal to the Idaho Supreme Court over a Kootenai County judge’s decision to reinstate NIC President Nick Swayne.
LIBRARIES: Watch authoritarians in action
For decades library trustee roles were nonpartisan. Yet over this last year, the Community Library Network majority trustees have shown themselves to be extremist. That the end justifies the means is evident in how the majority treats fellow trustees, library staff, the press and the public.
EDITORIAL: NIC trustees avert yet another disaster
Budget proposal could have further jeopardized accreditation
ELECTION: Morrisroe a proven leader
Precinct 312 Committeeman Greg McKenzie is one of the three incompetent and divisive NIC trustees who was “rated and vetted” by the KCRCC. His campaign flyer says nothing about him other than his allegiance to the MAGA agenda. He offers no personal information about himself. He does NOT mention that he is an NIC Trustee or any other community service or local roots or family ties.
MY TURN: Carping critics
Has anyone else grown weary of the small group of faultfinders who attend every North Idaho College board meeting? Their repetitive diatribes and sometimes cheeky behavior are frustrating for those waiting their turn to speak. They frequently remind us that Dr. South, who has been invaluable in navigating accreditation, is still on staff. They seem unaware that it was Dr. South’s team of experts and effective action steps which quickly moved the college in the right direction last year. He also has a contract that runs through June. Regrettably, this whole ‘risk of losing’ accreditation scheme has been a big expense for the college, and completely unnecessary. You do not have to be a mystic or even a philosopher to understand what has happened and why. But you do have to use discernment to know which of the “stakeholders" are obscuring the truth.

REGAN: Not rational about NIC
I would like to voice extreme exception to Brent Regan’s opinion column “Rational thinking” in the May 31 edition of the Coeur d’Alene Press. I wonder if the swamp gas floating over Coeur d’Alene also includes the systematic partial destruction of North Idaho College?

Should your oldest child be in charge of your estate?
When I meet with clients to set up estate plans, I find that a surprising number of people mistakenly believe that they must name their eldest child in their will or their trust as the person in charge of their estate. Even those who understand that they are not legally required to do this may think they are supposed to nominate their eldest child for this duty. There may have been a time when social norms dictated this outcome, but those days are long past, and today I speak to my clients in detail about who the right type of person is to be left in charge of their estate. Let’s review some of the factors that should be considered.
