COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — North Idaho College won’t change athletics conferences any time soon — and recent efforts to do so reportedly jeopardized NIC’s relationship with the Northwest Athletic Conference.
NIC President Nick Swayne revealed during Wednesday night’s trustee meeting that the National Junior College Athletic Association rejected proposals from NIC seeking to move some of the college's sports into the Scenic West Athletic Conference.
“Essentially what they said was ‘You’ve got to fix your accreditation first and then if you want to reapply, do that for the 24-25 season,’” Swayne said.
The proposals came from Interim President Greg South, who reached out to the NJCAA in January and again in February after trustees voted in December to explore changing conferences. Though trustees stipulated that NIC would “open the budget” for such a change, no formal calculation of costs was performed.
