About Me

I started this blog as a way of building an online community of current and past Ivy Tech paralegal students, as well as letting people interested in our program know what we're up to. This blog is not sponsored by Ivy Tech. No way, no how.

My name is Linda Kampe, and I'm the program chair of Paralegal Studies in Lafayette, Indiana. My office is in Ivy Hall 1166. Stop by and chat. For best results, make an appointment, so I know to expect you. And if you bring your own cup, I'll make you tea. Because hey, we're not animals.

Registering for fall ... and beyond!!!

Starting in Fall 2016, the Paralegal Studies program statewide will be offering an Associate of Science in Legal Studies (code name LEGS). This degree is intended as a transfer degree for people who have no desire to work as a paralegal (for shame!) and really just want to transfer to a 4-year college with a background in law. To make our new compatriots feel at home--and also because there is apparently a rule--some of our paralegal classes needed to be re-designated as LEGS classes.

Why am I telling you? Because when you go to register for your PARA classes this fall, you might not find them. There is apparently some confusion over which classes have been re-designated as LEGS classes, but this fall, Legal Ethics (LEGS 170) and Litigation (LEGS 202) are both LEGS classes. Notice that LEGS classes will have the same course numbers they had as PARA classes. Only the 4-letter prefix will change.

As always, if you're confused, please email, call, or drop by.

Feel free to comment--but all comments will be reviewed by me before they get posted. I will not post anything scurrilous about Ivy Tech students, faculty, or staff, or about members of the local community. Truth is not a defense. This just isn't going to be that kind of blog.
