Siding With President, State Governing Board Suspends Idaho State's Faculty 
Senate
The Idaho State Board of Education on Thursday suspended the Faculty Senate at 
Idaho State University, which voted no confidence last week in the university's 
president, Arthur Vailas, The Spokesman-Review reported. Officials of the board, 
which governs all public education in the  state, said the decision was “the 
most reasonable action to take at this  time" given what it characterized as the 
disconnect between the faculty  and Vailas, for whom the board had recently 
expressed support. “The  impasse between the leadership of the senate group and 
the  administration has reached a point where the prospect of any kind of  
progress was simply non-existent. It’s time to start over.” The board  directed 
Vailas to develop an interim faculty body, the newspaper  reported.
