All five trustees attended, as well as NIC President Nick Swayne, Accreditation Liaison Officer Steve Kurtz and Debbie DiThomas, a consultant with the Association of Community College Trustees.
There are only four board meetings before NIC must submit another report to its accreditor, the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. In March, the commission noted that NIC lacks a “functioning governing board responsible for the quality and integrity of the institution.”
