Fearlessly Pursue Your Passions

At The College of Idaho, “seize the day” isn’t just an expression — it’s how we live life. We jump feet first, enthusiastically and authentically, into everything we care about, pursue or want to explore. We see theater as an opportunity for social commentary, we fervently debate scientific theories and new technologies in the quad or over lunch, and in clubs and organizations, we think about all the ways we can enrich our campus and beyond. And that’s before we plan an impromptu hiking trip, head into the world to grow a global perspective or step onto the court to capture another NAIA Championship title.

As Yotes, we’re creative, original, dedicated and relentless. We know no one is like us, and that’s what draws us all together. And across our close-knit family, we empower each other, showing up to cheer athletic pursuits, applaud concerts and amplify each other’s endeavors. Why not join us and become a part of something great?
