 Albion Normal offered a two-year teacher training program until 1947, when it was renamed Southern Idaho College of Education (SICE) and authorized to confer baccalaureate degrees.In 1921, the legislature approved the closing of Albion and its relocation to nearby Burley.The school remained troubled by low enrollment and a lack of funding, however, and was finally closed by the state in 1951, as was its counterpart in northern Idaho, Lewiston's NICE.
