Phaedrus: I'm at a loss to figure out why the voc-tech crowd wants to replace Christie Wood. Herb, it's personal. Robert Ketchum was let go by NIC, the Trustees approved of that action. Ron Nilson's vo-tech gravy train was disrupted and Ron Nilson belongs to the “My way or the Highway” school of thinking, he is unwilling (perhaps incapable) of seeing another point of view. So he recruits (sponsors?) Ketchum to run. And despite leading the governing board of KTEC he also wants to have input into the governing board of NIC. If Nilson wins, I hear that NIC's new colors will be yellow and black and the Cardinal logo will be replaced by a bulldozer.

Question: Do you think North Idaho College has a good balance between academic classes and vo-tech/pro-tech ones?
