North Idaho College - A Red State Cautionary Tale

North Idaho College, a community college with an enrollment of nearly 10,000, is a cautionary tale for what happens when the President speaks up for what is right, faces off against a Board of Trustees who are squabbling and unqualified leading to the President being fired without cause, a law-suit, a loss of its insurance coverage, a Moody’s downgrade, mass exodus of executive leadership and is now on the precipice of losing its accreditation. Rick MacLennan is the former President of North Idaho College and will join me to discuss why Executive Leaders need to wake up - especially in the face of red state governance boards who are seeking to strip away institutional freedoms and quality.
