Opinion
Jane and I both grew up in Billings, Montana, in solid middle-class neighborhoods and were married just out of high school. Most houses were between 800 and 1100 square feet with three bedrooms and one bath. I didn’t know anyone who had more than one bathroom.
Who we truly are, who we allow ourselves to be is revealed only when we believe that we are under observation by no other human being. Without reward or punishment and absent our endless efforts to earn status and save face, what we will permit ourselves to do while alone is a splendid indicator of the genuine state of our inner self.

Editorial
Over the course of the last four years, I have watched myriad events unfold at North Idaho College. For those who watched it all closely, it has been a case study of injustice. Every manner in which a person or group can deal unjustly with another has been on full display. This includes behavior by faculty, staff, trustees, alumni, management, the accreditation agency, state education entities, attorneys, students, city council-members, local media, the courts, political activists, and community members.
Board governance is certainly the focus of the NWCCU concerns; however, it applies to the full board and its relationship with the college president. This includes the actions taken by both the appointed trustees and the elected trustees who have been graced with SaveNIC’s stamp of approval.
A handful of affiliated Republicans have joined forces with Idaho Democrats to promote Proposition 1, but they are few and far between.
