COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — Members of the North Idaho College Faculty Assembly have issued a resolution of censure against trustees Greg McKenzie, Todd Banducci and Mike Waggoner, as well as college attorney Art Macomber, and a resolution of no confidence in the college's administration.

The move comes after NIC received a show cause sanction from its accreditor, the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. Show cause is the last step before loss of accreditation.

In its resolution, the Faculty Assembly said letters from NWCCU outline how McKenzie, Banducci, Waggoner and Macomber have demonstrated dereliction of duty, including fiduciary responsibilities; abused their power; disregarded codes of ethical conduct; and violated accreditation requirements and standards, as well as Idaho law.

“Their actions have undermined the integrity of NIC,” the resolution said.

During a special meeting of the Faculty Assembly earlier this month, NIC’s full-time faculty voted overwhelmingly in favor of the resolution, with 84 of 92 people in attendance supporting it. Six faculty opposed the resolution and two abstained from the vote.
