He added that "any persons who were a party to alleged mishandling of and who still have responsibility for handling credit records at the two institutions" should be relieved of such responsibility. Smylie recommended "that the legislature should be asked to enact legislation with criminal sanctions giving positive protection to credits granted by all institutions of higher learning in the state, both public and private." The state board reported that "evidence presented to the board indicates credits may have been granted at Northern and Southern Idaho Colleges of Education without sufficient performance of academic The board resolved to employ a "qualified registrar to analyze and evaluate the credits so given at the two institutions as an item analysis so that the board may take action."

Last summer the state board said it had reason to believe there may have been some "irregularities" involved in credit granting at the schools. After hearing a report from Ross E. Barney, assistant superintendent of public instruction, the board called in the Northwest Accrediting association to investigate. State Senator William H. Detweiler (R-Jerome), one of the senate leaders who led the fight in the 1951 legislature to deny appropriations for the two schools, eriticized the board's "slowness" in bringing the report to the public charged that instructors at SICE had "sold" credits to students.
