Eve Knudtsen owns the largest Chevrolet dealership in all of Idaho.
She has generously has put her own time, money, and effort into our community and into North Idaho College.
Eve understands how critical NIC’s Workforce Training is because she relies on those graduates—NIC’s automotive and auto-body programs—to keep her dealership thriving.
Eve has a master’s degree in organizational leadership from Gonzaga, so she knows what makes an organization succeed.
Mary Havercroft brings 40 years of experience in education, with 34 of those years in the Lakeland School District—the highest-performing district in Kootenai County.
Mary has been on both sides of the accreditation process, as an educator and as part of accreditation teams for the Idaho Department of Education.
Mary speaks from experience when she says NIC's ‘Show Cause’ status is completely unnecessary.
It is the direct result of failures by the KCRCC “Rated and Vetted” trustees.
Rick Durbin believes North Idaho College was the launchpad to a successful career in finance and a master’s degree in adult organizational learning and leadership.
Rick believes his education, years of business experience, and roots in our community position him to be a trustee who will work with his peers to make sure NIC retains accreditation and remains a vital part of North Idaho.
Rick is committed to ensuring that NIC's legacy is not tarnished by the mistakes of the KCRCC backed trustees.
He knows that trustees are there to serve—not their own agendas, but the school, the students, and our entire community.
