You might still have courses to take before you get your degree, but maybe you can learn something about the field from someone who's already out there. The IUSB Alumni Office has offered to find alumni mentors for any stopped-out students, matching people by major or career. If you'd like to be paired with someone who's already graduated from IUSB, call the Office of Student Persistence at 237-4460. Now you can take a course or two to see if this field is something you want to pursue. To earn the certificate, you will need to take seven courses and six one-day seminars.
Most students complete the program in two and a half years in the evenings.
Paralegals pursue careers in law offices, courts, corporations, government, bank trust departments, and insurance and title companies. For more information, contact Diana Hess at 237-4415. For years, IUSB has used the stairway and second floor lobby of the Administration Building to display the artworks of students, faculty, and area artists. But this fall IUSB opened a new, modern art gallery located in the Associates Building. The gallery, which features a marble waterfall, display cabinets, and 1,500 square feet of exhibiting space, was made possible with the help of private donations.
