It’s hard to drive down the street without seeing a yard sign about Proposition 1. Proposition 1 has sparked a lot of debate and is a highly contentious issue in Idaho.

Last night, at the College of Idaho, we addressed it head on. Through a panel of experts representing both sides, the audience engaged in meaningful discourse around this controversial topic, sticking around long after the panel was over to continue the dialogue.

The College of Idaho is committed to providing a platform for engaged discussion around important and often controversial topics. We’ll do it again on Nov 19, addressing the election results. Come join us from 3-8PM. It’s free and so are the drinks and food at the reception. https://alumni.collegeofidaho.edu/e/idaho-policy-forum-2024-after-the-election

Vietnam Experience

"If I hadn't done that here, I don't know when I would have gotten an opportunity to do that." - Micah Sharples '24 A group of students traveled with professors Rob Dayley and Jeff Snyder-Reinke to Vietnam earlier this year and got beyond the history books to see and learn about the region with their own eyes and minds. #YoteFam #ExceptionalAcademics #GlobalMindset #OutsideTheClassroom

2024 Commencement Senior Speaker Sibusiso Mahlangu

From starting its freshman year online to returning to campus wearing masks, the Class of 2024 did not have the typical college experience. But, as Sibusiso Mahlangu said in his Senior Speech at Commencement, that didn't stop him and his classmates from filling the gaps and having a great educational experience. #YoteFam #CloseKnitFamily #Commencement2024

2024 Commencement Ceremony Recap

Many of the College's seniors couldn't participate in a high school graduation ceremony in 2020 due to the pandemic, making the 2024 College of Idaho Commencement Exercises extra special to them. #YoteFam #2024Commencement #CloseKnitFamily

When Sunao Sugita was looking at colleges and universities, he was looking for a place that allowed him to pursue many different interests. He found The College of Idaho with its liberal arts foundation and unique PEAK curriculum. On Saturday, he'll graduate with a degree in psychology and minors in literature, creative writing, and health promotion. #YoteFam #CloseKnitFamily #LiberalArtsFoundation #Commencement2024

National championships in athletics, academic excellence, learning outside the classroom, strong bonds with friends and faculty, and a good path forward - senior Sage Martin "squeezed out the most that I could" during her time at The College of Idaho and will graduate on Saturday. #YoteFam #CloseKnitFamily #Commencement2024

From online education during the COVID pandemic to commencement this weekend, senior Fernando Barrios has experienced a lot during his time at The College of Idaho. Among the best experiences? The sense of community, from classmates to faculty, that helped him make the most of his time here. #YoteFam #CloseKnitFamily #Commencement2024

Senior Spotlight: Alyssa Johnson

For senior Alyssa Johnson, her journey to (and at) The College of Idaho wasn't ordinary. But that's what made it so special. The College community gave her the opportunity to reach her goals and find her pack. As she prepares to graduate on Saturday, listen to her tell you about being a member of the #YoteFam. #CloseKnitFamily #Commencement2024
