Bonner County Foundation Wants Sandpoint College

A foundation has proposed spending at least $20 million to build a University of Idaho and North Idaho College campus in this northern Idaho town. The Wild Rose Foundation, based in Bonner County, is also offering to donate land from the same parcel for the college campus to the Lake Pend Oreille School District for a new high school here /Associated Press.

DFO: I personally believe the state should move the University of Idaho to Coeur d’Alene, where there’s a greater population base to boost school enrollment. I can’t see, however, that the state could properly fund a new campus in Sandpoint.

Question: Should Sandpoint have its own campus for a combined UI/NIC college?
