The Far-Right's Campaign Against North Idaho College

The far-right movement in Idaho is intensifying its campaign against North Idaho College, which is being targeted despite lacking any pronounced progressive agenda. This effort is spearheaded by members of the Idaho Republican Party who have been strategically elected to the college's board of trustees, causing turmoil that threatens the institution's accreditation. North Idaho College is crucial for the community, offering vocational training and educational opportunities to many local residents. The push against the college aligns with a broader ideological motive to dismantle public education and promote private alternatives that could enforce a more conservative curriculum.
