Residents' NIC donation is 'truly transformational'

COEUR d'ALENE — Bob and Leona DeArmond’s name will be attached to North Idaho College forever. The NIC Board of Trustees on Monday approved naming the college’s new 29,000-square-foot collaborative eduction building after the former Coeur d’Alene residents, who college officials say made the largest private donation in NIC’s 85-year history. The building is under construction on River Avenue on the NIC campus, not far from the former site of the DeArmond Stud Mill, once owned by the DeArmond family.
