THE LAGRANGE COLLEGE 



STUDENT CREED 



Life is mine to Live. That I may cherish it 

And right royally meet its responsibilities, 

I would lay aside that which is 

Narrow, selfish, ignoble, and unkind; 

The false, superficial, the dishonest 

I would shun in thought, word and deed. 

Rather may I cultivate in my college life 

Those traits and ideals that will fit me 

To weave dreams into realities, and impressions 

into character, 
To meet bravely the hard tasks of life, 
To bring joy to those who falter in their tasks. 
I would strive to judge more kindly, 
Trust more fully, and love more deeply, 
That my life may reflect His goodness. 
And my soul may grow on the knowledge 
Of Him, whom to know is life eternal. 



Dr. Waights G. Henry, Jr. 
President 

To The Students at LaGrange College 

To new students and old, we offer a 
strong and earnest welcome. You are 
now joined with the administration and 
faculty of LaGrange College in an 
enterprise that will largely determine 
what you will do and be for the rest 
of your life. 

Our faculty is comprised of younger 
men and women putting into practice 
the thoughts and plans that they have 
been eager to execute, and old pros 
who have settled for methods that they 
feel to have been tried and feel to be 
true. Whether young or old they are 
dedicated to helping you to find your- 
self and your place in a rapidly evolv- 
ing social order. 

Primarily, along with knowledge and 
skills, we wish to help you to develop 
a poise that comes from the possession 
of a set of spiritual values and satis- 
factory social adjustment. Now that we 
know where we stand, let's get with it. 



Sincerely, 





John R. Love 
Dean of Students 

I want to extend a hearty welcome to 
all new students. We're glad to have 
you at LaGrange College. I hope your 
enrollment here will be a rewarding

been noted for its personal relationship 
between faculty, administration, and 
students. We want you to help keep it 
this way. We feel that this close rela- 
tionship will make your educational 
experience more meaningful and 
enjoyable. 

In this handbook are some rules that 
the Student Government Association

ALMA MATER 

Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, 

Guardian of our days; 
For thy spirit never failing 

We will sing thy praise, 
High aloft we hold thy banner 

Ever loyal, true; 
And to thee, our Alma Mater, 

We our pledge renew. 
In thy mighty groves of learning, 

Wisdom's paths we've sought, 
High upon thy lofty hilltop 

Visions have been wrought. 
From our hearts we sing the chorus 

Time shall never change, 
Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, 

Hail to thee, LaGrange.
