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.

Legal Society News

Yes, you read that right: Legal Society. The Paralegal Society voted Tuesday night to change its name to the more inclusive moniker Legal Society.

Other actions taken:

Pizza with the Alums is scheduled for Thursday, March 23, at 6:00 p.m. Students, prospective students, and alumni are all encouraged to attend, and not just for the food. What better way to get a sense of what life is really like in a law office than to hear it from someone who recently started working in one? (Or who has worked in one for a while--we'd love to hear the voice of experience as well.) No charge. Come talk to someone who's been there. Oh--and get the word out to any alumni you know!

 

Appeals on Wheels is set for March 2. PARA/LEGS students are encouraged to act as hosts/hostesses for the appellate judges, staff, and attorneys. Please report to the hallway outside Ivy 1120 by 11:15 ish. Professional dress required. I, and I alone, am the sole judge of what is professional dress. There is no appeal.

Heads up here--NO flip-flops or athletic shoes; nothing with holes; do not sport cleavage (for or aft); no jeans or shorts; clothing with words on it of any sort will be highly suspect; no clothing that has not been recently laundered; etc. For purposes of Appeals on Wheels, leggings are deemed NOT to be pants. 

The next meeting of the Legal Society is Tuesday, March 7, at 6 p.m.

Post a Comment

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.
