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.

You're Invited!

The local pro bono commission is hosting an afternoon continuing legal education program on Wednesday, October 28--and the commission director has specifically invited ALL of Lafayette Ivy Tech's paralegal students. The CLE program starts at 1, and the reception (free shrimp!) starts at 5. You are invited to attend either or both, but you must register. And for my students, yes, either event would be worth 10-20 points.

Details below.

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.
