ASNIC

ASNIC (pronounced Az-nik) is an acronym for the Associated Students of North Idaho College. All currently registered students at North Idaho College are members of ASNIC. The ASNIC Student Government is made up of students elected by students to represent the Associated Students of North Idaho College - our entire NIC student body. Together we are ASNIC.

The ASNIC Student Government consists of a President, Vice President, and up to eight Senators. Board meetings are held once a semester in the Student Union Building. Students, faculty, and staff are welcome and encouraged to attend. Come visit your Student Government officers in the ASNIC suite, 2nd floor of the Student Union building. Their space is your space to enjoy as well, and students are encouraged to interact and share ideas and concerns. ASNIC Officers are here to make the campus a better place for all students.

Mission Statement

We will amplify student voices to advocate and create change for an enhanced student experience by serving as a bridge between students, administration, and our community. This is the mission of ASNIC Student Government as the eyes, ears, and voice of the students of NIC.

	In May, 2020-2021 NIC ASNIC Officers Hannah Neff and Jameson Wasson worked with Landscape Services and other students to bring some new life to the NIC Rose Garden for their student project. The beautiful campus rose garden was created in 2007 as part of the college's larger Nine-Point Agreement for all to share in friendship and unity. The garden is divided into four sections and each includes a placard with historical information on various places of significance to the Coeur d'Alene Tribe.
Jestine Lackner, 2020-2021 ASNIC Vice President, Resident Hall Advisor, and avid volleyball player, wanted to make a difference on campus. Last spring, after seeing one fellow student too many take a volleyball to the face while playing at the beach court in the evening, she knew what she wanted to do. In the last week of the school year, her project goal became reality at the NIC Yap-Keehn-Um Beach. Jestine was on hand to watch as facilities crew installed the large LED lights that will light up the beach court for evening play.
	Kai Sedlmayer-Nardi, 2020-2021 ASNIC President, heard from peers that as a new student, finding campus classes during the first week of school was difficult. After brainstorming and researching solutions, Kai found a campus department to print and distribute the maps in the future. In April 2021, she purchased the moveable stands to be placed around campus, working with the department to stock them with maps. During the first week of school, the stands will be highly visible in entryways and walkways, making it easier for students to find their way.
