Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵios

WHAT MAKES OUR CAMPUS UNIQUE?

• Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵios Lafayette has been serving the area for over 50 years. It began in 1968 as Tippewa Technical Institute with 17 students studying health careers. The college leased or borrowed facilities to house their programs, including buildings at Home Hospital, St. Ann's Church, and the "Old Jeff" building in downtown Lafayette. Thanks to the generosity of Tippecanoe County, the college established a location on Lafayette's south side, and built a facility to house its technology programs in 1977. A land swap with the county in 1991 resulted in ownership of a 50-acre campus. Today, we operate on over 130 acres which includes a laboratory farm.
• The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵios Lafayette campus currently consists of six buildings at the Creasy Lane campus: Bane Agriculture Technology Center, Craig Porter Energy Center, Gipe Hall, Griffin Hall, Ivy Hall, and Ross Administration Building. The Lamkin Apprentice Training Center is also located on campus.
• Over 300 students have participated in the , a partnership between Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵios - Lafayette and Purdue University College of Agriculture that allows Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵios students to co-enroll at Purdue in preparation for an undergraduate degree in the College of Agriculture.
