Niche Center To Open

Wed., Dec. 6, 2000

The presidents of North Idaho College, the University of Idaho, Lewis-Clark State College and Idaho State University will dedicate a new center for higher education Friday.

The Northern Idaho Center for Higher Education (NICHE) is a collaboration between the four institutions. It is designed to provide one-stop shopping for students looking for information about the schools’ North Idaho programs. The center, located in the Northern Lights Mall at 408 W. Haycraft Ave. in Coeur d’Alene, will be dedicated at 1 p.m.

The center will be open from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
