LaGrange College, established in 1831, is owned by the North Georgia Conference of The United Methodist Church. LaGrange College is proud of this relationship and believes that its mission is an extension of the work of The United Methodist Church. LaGrange College is committed to the free, uninhibited pursuit of truth. Academic freedom and free expression of faculty and students are integral to the LaGrange College ethos. LaGrange College is committed to challenging the minds and inspiring the souls of students by improving their creative, critical, and communicative abilities. Faculty recognize the part they play in a student's development by serving as mentors and role models. The total LaGrange College program- curricular and co-curricular- is designed to challenge and support students as they deal with fundamental issues of self, world, and God. The principal curricular means by which the College assists students in the improving of their creative, critical, and communicative abilities are an interdisciplinary, technologically sophisticated liberal arts program (A. A., B.A., B.S., B.M.), professional programs in business (B.A., B.S., M.B.A), nursing (B.S.N.), education (B.A., M.Ed, and M.A.T.), and continuing education. The principal co-curricular means is through a comprehensive program of student life and athletics. LaGrange College strives to be a caring and ethical community. The hallmark of the LaGrange College community is the quest for civility, diversity, service, and excellence. Accreditation LaGrange College is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Georgia 30033-4097: Telephone number 404-679-4501) to award the degrees of Associate of Arts, Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Business Administration, Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Master of Education, Master of Arts in Teaching, and Master of Business Administration. LaGrange College is also approved by the United Methodist University Senate. It has membership in the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities and the Georgia Foundation for Independent Colleges. The Georgia Professional Standards Commission, which confers professional certificates upon college graduates meeting requirements in early childhood, middle grades, or secondary education, has awarded highest approval to LaGrange College's program of teacher education. The Bachelor of Science in Nursing program is accredited by the National League for Nursing. The undergraduate and graduate programs in business administration are accredited by the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs. Evening College The Evening College division of LaGrange College is dedicated to meeting the educational needs of adult learners whose career interests are in business administration or liberal studies. Recognizing that adult learners may be managing personal, professional, and collegiate careers. Evening College is structured to allow qualified students to earn an undergraduate degree at night, through full-time or part-time study, without sacrificing their professional and personal responsibilities. Evening College offers the Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration and the Associate of Arts degree in Liberal Studies. Evening College offers an outstanding academic program in a supportive, encouraging environment. The liberal arts based curriculum prepares learners for the future through a curriculum that facilitates mastery in a discipline and development of reasoning, decision-making and problem-solving abilities skills vital for career success. The academic year is divided into three 9-week quarters and one 7-week summer session. Accepted students may begin classes during any quarter. Admission Freshman Admission LaGrange College seeks to admit students who demonstrate the ability to benefit from a quality liberal arts education. Applicants to Evening College are normally independent adults 24 years or older, who reside off-campus; they may be married or have dependents. Prospective students are encouraged to call the Evening College Office at 880-8298 to discuss the programs available in Business Administration and Liberal Studies, and to review the application process. There are three steps to the admission process. 1. Request an Evening College Application from the Admission Office, or download the application from our web site at www.lgc.edu. The application requires completion of both biographical and academic information, as well as a thoughtful written response to a Focus Question. Mail the completed application and the $20.00 nonrefundable fee to the Admission Office, 601 Broad Street, LaGrange, GA 30240. 2. Request official transcripts from all high schools and colleges attended. Official transcripts and test scores must be signed and sealed and forwarded directly from the agency to the Admission Office. Copies of transcripts mailed, faxed, or delivered by a prospective student are not considered to be official documents, and are therefore not acceptable. Students who earned a G. E. D. in lieu of a high school diploma must submit an official copy of the examination score, following the same procedure as noted above. Please note that applicants who are independent students, aged 24 or older, with a minimum of two years work experience are not required to submit SAT or ACT scores as a part of the application. 3. Schedule an appointment for a conversation with the Director of Evening College. The conversation with the Director is an important part of the admission process, allowing the student to ask questions about the program, and to discuss his/her intended study program. The Admission Committee will review the completed application. Each application is carefully and thoughtfully evaluated for academic preparation and ability, as evidenced by the transcript(s) and essay. The Admission Committee reviews completed applications on a rolling basis; applicants should allow a minimum of two weeks for completed applications to be processed. The Admission Office will contact the applicant in writing, expressing the Committee's decision. Regular admission will be extended to those applicants who meet all of the requirements for admission; enrollment will normally be effective at the beginning of the next academic term. Provisional admission may be extended, when, in the opinion of the Committee, a candidate does not fully meet the standard admission criteria, but has the potential to be a successful Evening College student. A student who is offered a provisional acceptance must earn a 1 .6 during the first quarter of attendance in order to continue enrollment. The Admission Committee may also choose to extend probation admission to applicants. Students accepted on probation will be limited to 10 quarter hours their first term, and must earn at least a 2.0 in both courses in order to continue as a student in Evening College. In some instances, a candidate who appears to meet the standard admission criteria may experience unexpected delays in forwarding official transcripts to the Admission Office. In this case, a conditional admission offer may be tendered with full admission contingent upon receipt of the necessary paperwork within 30 days of enrollment. Transfer Admission Students attending another institution may apply for transfer admission providing they are eligible to return to their current institution at the time of entry to LaGrange College. The College will evaluate course work from regionally accredited college and universities for LaGrange College academic credit. Normally, credit will be given for classes comparable to LaGrange College subjects for which the applicant earned a grade of "C" or above. If transferring from a two-year institution, credit may be earned for a maximum of 90 quarter hours of coursework. If transferring from a four-year college, normally 120 quarter hours of coursework may transfer. When transfer applicants are accepted, the Registrar will review and evaluate all coursework taken at institutions outside of LaGrange College. The report indicating courses and credit hours for which transfer credit will be accepted by LaGrange College, will be mailed to the student prior to registration for the upcoming term. Questions concerning the awarding of transfer credit should be directed to the Registrar's Office. Readmission If a student has not attended Evening College for four quarters, or was not in good standing during the last quarter completed, s/he must submit an Application for Readmission (available in the Admission Office) before attempting to register for additional course work. Students who were absent for three quarters or less, and who were in good academic standing when they last attended, may re-activate their student file through the Registrar's Office without applying for readmission. Students who have not attended another institution while absent from LaGrange College, and who have been absent for less than four calendar years, are generally governed by the Bulletin in force at the date of their initial enrollment. Students who have been out of school for four or more calendar years are subject to the Bulletin in force at the time of their readmission and resumption of study. If a student seeking readmission has attended another institution as a transfer student since leaving LaGrange College, he/she will - if admitted - be considered as a transfer student. Transfer students will be subject to the Bulletin in force at the time of their transfer back to LaGrange College. Enrollment After an offer of admission is extended, applicants who intend to accept the offer will be asked to submit an enrollment deposit of $100.00 to reserve a space in the class for the upcoming term. The deposit will be considered as a credit toward tuition due. A student who expects to receive a tuition reimbursement scholarship ft-om his/her employer may contact the Admission Office to request a waiver of the deposit. The Evening College and Registrar's offices will correspond with each student approximately one month before each term begins to provide details concerning course registration, placement testing, book purchases, and other subjects of importance to new students. Testing and registration activities are conducted during evening hours as a convenience for students. Students should be advised that English and mathematics placement tests must be completed before initial course registration can be finalized. All new students are encouraged to participate in the Evening College Orientation, held the week prior to the start of classes. In addition to providing a campus tour, the orientation gives new students the opportunity to meet current students, introduces the advising and academic support system, covers logistics of course registration, and reviews the mission and overarching objectives of the Evening program. 11 Financial Aid Philosophy LaGrange College believes that students and their families should contribute to the educational expenses of attending a college or university to the extent of their ability. The Financial Aid Office is available to assist families in meeting the difference between the cost of education at LaGrange College and what the family can contribute. The Financial Aid Office at LaGrange College attempts to defray the cost of education from all available Federal and State sources. The student should be prepared to assume a measure of responsibility in meeting educational expense through self-help financial aid sources such as student loans. Payment of Charges The following fees are in effect for the 2002-2003 academic year. Tuition $ 1 85 per quarter hour Testing Fee $60 Parking Permit Fee $15 Late Registration Fee $20 Personal checks/credit cards failing to clear $15 There are no additional general or course fees. All educational charges are due and payable before the beginning of each term. Students who pre-register will be billed in advance of each term by the Business Office with a due date specified on the invoice. Students who fail to submit payment, or make arrangements with the Business Office by the due date, will have their schedules voided by the Registrar, and will need to re- register in person after the account is settled. Students who receive employer tuition reimbursement should contact the Business Office to discuss options for billing and payment. Refund Policy Refunds for individual courses may only be granted in accordance with the deadline dates established by the Evening College calendar. Properly submitted refund requests will be processed within 10 days of notification from the Registrar's Office of withdrawal. A student considering a complete withdrawal from all courses for the term should contact the Director of Evening College to begin the withdrawal process. The student should also consult with the Financial Aid and Business Offices to determine the financial impact of a complete withdrawal. See page 25 (Disbursement of Excess Financial Aid) for the refund policies for students receiving financial aid. 12 General Information Students in need of financial assistance must complete a federal need analysis form, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid form (FAFSA). The FAFSA collects information concerning the student's family income, assets, and untaxed income, family size, and the number in college. This information is used in a federal need analysis calculation to determine what the family should be able to contribute towards educational expenses. This amount is called the Expected Family Contribution (EFC). Cost of Attendance is an estimate of the annual cost for a student to attend LaGrange College. In addition to tuition, the Cost of Attendance includes books and supplies, room and board, and living expenses. Other components of the Cost of Attendance, which are applied on an individual basis, include childcare expenses, loan fees, and computer costs. These items may require documentation from the student. The Cost of Attendance Budget for independent Evening College students for the 2002-2003 academic year is $16,810. The Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is deducted from the Cost of Attendance at LaGrange College to determine whether a need for financial assistance exists. If the family's EFC is less than the Cost of Attendance, a financial need is established, and the Financial Aid Office will work with the family to assist in meeting that need. Financial Aid Eligibility Requirements In general, to be eligible for financial assistance, financial aid applicants must: Be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident alien Be accepted for admission or currently enrolled in an approved degree-seeking program. Be making satisfactory academic progress towards the completion of a degree program. Not be in default on any federal educational loan, or have made satisfactory arrangements to repay the loan. Not owe a refund on a federal or state grant. Not have borrowed in excess of federal loan limits. Be registered with Selective Service, if required. Students meeting the eligibility requirements above may apply for financial aid by: (1) submitting a completed FAFSA, (2) submitting a completed LaGrange College Financial Aid Applicafion, and (3) completing a Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant Application. 13 Student Financial Aid Rights and Responsibilities Students have the right to know: The procedures for applying for financial assistance and eligibility requirements Financial aid resources available and eligibility requirements Refunds and Repayment Policy in the event of complete withdrawal from school Cost of Attendance at LaGrange College Deadlines for applying for financial aid When and how financial aid award will be disbursed Your loan indebtedness and estimated monthly payments Academic programs available at LaGrange College Name of associations and agencies accrediting the institution and its programs Campus security statistics Athletic program participation rates and financial support data Completion and graduation rates Students have the responsibiUty to: Submit complete and accurate financial aid applications Observe all deadlines for submission of financial aid documents Attend all classes for which financial assistance was awarded Maintain satisfactory academic progress towards the completion of their chosen degree or certification Notify the Financial Aid Office and lenders of any change in address Complete required Entrance and Exit Interviews for Federal Stafford and Federal Perkins Loans Respond to all communications regarding student loans and financial aid awards Comply with all eligibility requirements for financial aid award funds Be conscientious in attendance and quality of work when participating in a work-study job Repay student loan received for education pursuits regardless of whether he/she graduates 14 Satisfactory Academic Progress The United States Department of Education requires institutions of higher education to establish a satisfactory academic progress policy to be applied to all recipients of federal financial aid. Satisfactory academic progress means that the student is progressing in a positive manner consistent with fulfilling degree requirements. Satisfactory academic progress is evaluated throughout the course of the degree program. The Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy includes qualitative and quantitative components and financial aid recipients must meet both standards to qualify for financial aid. Qualitative progress is a measure of the cumulative grade point average. The number or percentage of courses completed indicates quantitative progress. The quantitative component also establishes the maximum time frame for completing a degree program. The standards established in the Satisfactory Academic Progress policy apply to all federal and state programs discussed in this Bulletin, with the exception of the Law Enforcement Personnel Dependents Grants. Qualitative Standard Federal regulations require an undergraduate student to have a 2.0 cumulative grade point average at the end of the second year or, that which is consistent with the institufion's policy governing academic progress. LaGrange College has set the following minimum grade point average requirements. The Registrar and Academic Dean monitor this component of the policy each term.. Minimum Classification Cumi] ilative Grade Point Average 1 Freshman 1.65 fc Sophomore 1.75 Junior 1.85 Senior 2.0 Quantitative Standard Students receiving funds from any of the financial programs covered under this policy must demonstrate measurable progress toward the completion of their degree program. LaGrange College requires students to successfully complete 67% of the credit hours for which the student enrolls each academic term. The credits hours considered under this policy will be those for which the student is registered at the end of late registration. Grades of A, B, C, or D are considered as successful completion of a course. Grades of F, W, WF, NR, or I are considered failing and do not count as successfully completed courses. Audited courses are not considered in either the quantitative or qualitative standards. 15 The chart that follows indicates the minimum credits a student must earn to meet the quantitative standard. Total Attempted Hours Minimuin Earned Hours 45 30 90 60 135 90 180 120 225 150 270 180 Maximum Time Frame Federal regulations allow a student to receive financial assistance for no more than 150% of the credit hours required to complete the degree program. Therefore, students pursuing a bachelor's degree must complete their program within 270 attempted credit hours. Most students will complete the program within the time frame. However, frequent withdrawals from courses or school, change of major, failed courses, repeated courses, or courses taken that are not related to your degree program could jeopardize financial aid eligibility. All attempted hours are considered when reviewing maximum time frame. Transfer students must complete their program within a maximum of 270 credit hours. Hours transferred to and accepted by LaGrange College from other institutions are considered in the maximum time frame. For example, if a student has 75 credit hours acceptable towards their degree program, the student may receive financial assistance for 195 additional credit hours. Students pursuing an additional bachelor's degree or a master's degree are eligible for an additional 90 quarter hours to complete the degree. Evaluation The cumulative academic history of financial aid recipients is reviewed each term to determine if the student is meeting the quantitative, qualitative and time frame standards for all courses attempted, regardless of whether or not financial aid was received. Courses transferred to LaGrange College and transfer grade point averages are not considered in measurement of qualitative and quantitative standards. However, accepted transfer credits will be considered in the maximum time frame for completing a degree program. Students who fail to meet both qualitative and quantitative standards will be placed on financial aid probation. Students placed on financial aid probation are eligible for financial aid during the probationary term. If the student does not meet the satisfactory academic progress 16 standards at the end of the probationary term, future financial aid will be terminated effective with the next term of enrollment. Students whose financial aid is terminated may appeal to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee for re-instatement of financial aid. Appeal Process Student financial aid recipients who lose their eligibility for financial aid may appeal in writing to the Financial Aid Appeals Committee except for loss of eligibility due to timeframe. Appeals must be submitted in writing to the Director of Financial Aid outlining any mitigating circumstance(s) that impacted the student's academic performance, documentation of circumstance (s), if applicable, and how the deficiency will be resolved. The Director will convene the Financial Aid Appeals Committee to evaluate the request for reinstatement of financial aid eligibility. The Director of Financial Aid will notify the student in writing of the decision of the Committee and any conditions associated with reinstatement. Students whose appeals are approved will receive financial aid on probationary status for the next term of enrollment and will have their academic performance reviewed at the end of that term for continued eligibility. Student Financial Aid Policy Each year the Financial Aid Office receives more applications for financial assistance than funds are available. Funding for Federal Pell Grant and Federal Stafford Loans are available throughout the academic year. However, grant assistance is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. In awarding, first priority is given to students pursuing their first undergraduate degree. Transient and non-degree seeking undergraduate students are not eligible for financial assistance. State grant programs (HOPE Scholarship, Governor's Honor and Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant) require full-time enrollment to qualify. Evening College students enrolling less than full-time in a degree program are eligible for a Federal Stafford or Federal Perkins loan and Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant. Pell eligible students are eligible for a prorated amount of their Pell award based on their enrollment status. Students completing a FAFSA and receiving financial aid assistance must report any scholarships, grants, or loans received from outside sources. This includes employer reimbursement and veteran or vocational rehabilitation educational assistance. These resources must be considered in awarding state and federal financial aid programs. LaGrange College reserves the right to cancel or reduce financial aid awards in the event that these resources result in financial aid in excess of the established financial need. A student's enrollment status will be based on the credit hours registered for and attending after the conclusion of late registration. All financial aid awards will be calculated using final registration information. Full-time enrollment 17 status is defined as 12 or more quarter hours; three-quarter enrollment status represents 9-1 1 quarter hours; half-time status is assigned for 6-8 quarter hours of study for the term. Federal Financial Aid Programs Federal Pell Grant is awarded to undergraduate students pursuing a first bachelor's degree. The student's Expected Family Contribution, Cost of Attendance, and enrollment status determines the Pell award. Students enrolling less than full-time qualify for a prorated amount of Pell Grant based on their enrollment status. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant is awarded to undergraduate students with exceptional need. Priority is given to students eligible for the maximum Pell award. Federal Perkins Loan is a low interest, repayable loan awarded to students with exceptional financial need. The interest rate is 5% and no interest accrues on the loan while the borrower is enrolled half time and during the grace period. Repayment begins nine months after graduation or withdrawal from school. Funding in this program is limited; students may contact the Financial Aid Office for more information. Federal Stafford Loan is a low interest, repayable loan available to students regardless of income. The interest rate is variable, but will never be more than 8.25%. The interest rate is adjusted each July 1. Federal Stafford Loans allow for a six (6) month grace period before the borrower begins repayment, and require repayment within a ten-year period. Loans are available through banks, credit unions, and other lending institutions and not subject to credit approval. The only qualification for receiving a Federal Stafford Loan is to meet the eligibility requirements for financial assistance. The Stafford Loan Program is composed of subsidized and unsubsidized loans. A subsidized loan is awarded on the basis of financial need. Subsidized loans borrowers will not pay interest on the loan while enrolled in school, during the grace period, or during authorized periods of deferment. The federal government pays the interest. An unsubsidized loan is not awarded on the basis of need. Any student regardless of income may participate in this loan program. However, interest does accrue while the student is enrolled in school, during the grace period, and during deferment periods. The borrower has the options of paying the accrued interest or having the interest capitalized. Capitalization adds the interest to principal amount of the loan. This option will increase the loan payments. 18 The annual maximum awards from the Federal Stafford Loan Program are dependent on the borrower's classification and dependency status as indicated in the following chart. Classification Dependent Independent^ Freshmen $2,625.00 $ 6,625.00* Sophomores $3,500,00 $ 7,500.00* Juniors and Seniors $5,500.00 $10,500.00* Only the dependent student amounts may be subsidized. The additional amounts in the ''Independent" column represent unsubsidized funds. The Federal Stafford Loan Program has a maximum aggregate (lifetime) limit on the amount of funds you may borrow. The aggregate loan limit for undergraduate independent students is $46,000. Loan Repayment Student loans are excellent sources of financial assistance in defraying education costs. However, borrowers should always remember that they are obligated to repay these loans. LaGrange College encourages students to borrow responsibly. The chart on the next page provides typical repayment information of student loans and assumes unsubsidized borrowers paying interest while enrolled and during grace period. Georgia Student Assistance Programs The State of Georgia provides several financial aid programs to assist residents of Georgia. Recipients of these programs must meet financial aid eligibility and Georgia residency requirements. For most state grants, a Georgia resident is one who has physically lived in the state for a minimum of 12 consecutive months for some purpose other than to attend school and intends to remain in the state indefinitely. An applicant for financial aid will be considered a resident of Georgia if he/she can demonstrate that he or she has physically resided in the state for twelve consecutive months prior to the first date of enrollment and can provide documentation of intent to remain indefinitely. Acceptable documentation of intent to remain indefinitely includes but is not limited to a Georgia driver's license, voter registration card, automobile registration or other definitive evidence.

The annual amount is contingent upon funding by the Georgia Legislature. The amount of the grant beginning Fall 2002 is $1,100. Since 1993, the HOPE Scholarship Program has provided scholarship assistance for Georgia residents. Georgia residents who graduated from high school on or after June 1996 with a *B' average are eligible for a $3,000 per year scholarship to attend a Georgia private college or university. Evening College students who believe they qualify for this program should contact the Director of Financial Aid for more information. Law Enforcement Personnel Dependents Grants provides non-repayable grants of up to $2,000 per year to eligible Georgia residents who are dependent children of Georgia law enforcement officers, prison guards, or firemen who were permanently disabled or killed in the line of duty. Disbursement of Financial Aid All financial aid funds are credited directly to the student's account. The funds are applied towards current tuition, fees, room, board, and other charges as authorized by the student. Financial aid recipients should be aware that financial aid funds are for educational expenses only; students who fail to enroll or attend classes are not eligible for financial aid awards. Disbursements will only be made to students who have submitted all required documents for disbursement, are registered, meeting satisfactory academic progress standards, and are enrolled for the appropriate number of credits hours to establish eligibility for individual financial aid programs. Financial aid disbursements are based on the recipient's enrollment status at the conclusion of late registration. Below are individual enrollment and eligibility requirements for disbursement of financial aid programs. Federal Pell Grant and Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant Awards will be based on final registration enrollment status. This program does not require full-time enrollment. However, Federal Pell Grant awards are prorated based on the recipient's enrollment status. HOPE Scholarship and Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant recipients must maintain full-time enrollment for 14 days beyond the end of late registration. Students who drop below full-time before the end of the eligibility period will forfeit funds for the quarter. Recipients of Federal Perkins and Federal Stafford must be enrolled at least halftime to qualify for each disbursement. Borrowers who fail to register half time will have their loan funds returned to the lender and future disbursements cancelled. New borrowers and transfer students are required to complete entrance loan counseling before loan proceeds may be disbursed. Federal Stafford loans are disbursed electronically and credited to the student's 21 account. Perkins borrowers must sign their promissory note for each disbursement of their loan. Scholarships, grants, and loans from other sources will be disbursed as specified by the donor. Disbursement of Excess Financial Aid Students with a residual financial aid funds after tuition and other authorized charges are paid will receive a refund of the remaining credit balance within 14 days of the beginning of classes or 14 days from the date the credit occurs (if after final registration). All refunds must be retrieved from the Business Office and require a picture ID before disbursement. If the student wishes to leave the credit balance on the account for subsequent terms, he/she may sign an authorization form with the Business Office. Student Financial Aid and Federal Tax Implications Students receiving scholarships and grants that exceed their tuition, fees, book and supplies should be aware that these funds are taxable under federal and state tax law. It is important that students maintain records of their grants and scholarships and documentation of educational expenses for reporting purposes. Federal tax law allows for only qualified scholarships and grants to be excluded fi'om income. Qualified scholarships are any amount of grant and scholarship you receive that is used for tuition, fees, books, supplies and equipment required for your course instruction. Scholarships and grants that are specifically designated for educational expenses other that those described under qualified scholarships (room, board, transportation, or living expenses) are taxable. Suspected Fraud Institutions are required to report cases of suspected fraud to the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Education, or, if more appropriate, to the state or local law enforcement agency having jurisdiction to investigate these allegations. Fraud may exist if the institution believes the applicant misreported or altered information in order to increase their financial aid eligibility or fi-audulently obtain federal funds. 22 Academic Support Services William & Evelyn Banks Library The Banks Library provides up-to-date resources that support the curriculum and general information needs of students and faculty. Those resources include over 107,000 cataloged volumes, 121,000 microfilm units, over 70 GALILEO databases and indexes, over 100 scholarly journals in electronic format through JSTOR, subscriptions to 500 journal titles, and a video and CD collection. Many library resources can be accessed through the campus-wide fiber optics network and through the Internet. The library's Multi-Media Center provides access to the Internet, word processing, presentation software, e-mail, and the Online Catalog and databases. The Center offers, for students and faculty, use of a scanner, computer projector, digital camera, and computer workstations in a classroom setting. Groups study rooms, study carrels, video viewing rooms, and a large conference room all also available for student use. Four professional librarians, three paraprofessionals, and student assistants staff the library, which is open seven days per week. Academic Advising The Director of Evening College will serve as the advisor to Evening College students prior to their declaration of a major in Business Administration or Liberal Studies. The advisor functions as a general resource for program information, policies and procedures, schedule planning, etc. After declaration of a major, a departmental faculty advisor will be assigned to work with the student through the completion of his/her program. While faculty advisors will work closely with students in the planning of schedules, it is the student's responsibility to insure that all program requirements are fulfilled. Career Planning and Placement Center Evening College students are encouraged to use the resources available in the Career Planning and Placement Center. The Center maintains current career- related materials and computer-assisted guidance programs to allow students to complete self-assessments on skills and interests related to careers or to personal development. The Center also sponsors skill-building workshops on such topics as interviewing and resume-writing. The Director of Career Planning is available to meet during evening hours with interested students by appointment. 23 Computer Facilities In 1991, LaGrange College became committed to creating a fiber optic network of many computers that would allow students and faculty to access the network anywhere on campus. The college currently has 12 computer laboratories allowing students to access the World Wide Web from virtually any sight on campus. Microcomputer labs on campus are available for general use except when the rooms have been reserved for class use. Evening College students may find the laboratory on the 3'^'^ floor of Smith Hall (room 322) most convenient for their use. The lab consists of workstations with access to Pascal, FORTRAN, BAIC, Oracle, COBOL, SQL, and the Internet. LaGrange College seeks to provide students with the greatest possible access to computer resources within the limits of institutional priorities and financial capabilities, and consistent with generally accepted principles of ethics that govern the College community. Access to computer and network facilities requires each student user to be accountable and responsible for appropriate use of computer facilities. Students are expected to maintain ethical and moral standards for use at all times. Computing systems may not be used for non- college-related purposes of any type. The complete Policy for the Responsible Use of Information Technology is printed in the LaGrange College Bulletin and is also available in the Evening College office. Tutoring Center The Student Tutoring Center is located on the 5* floor of Henry Hall. Peer tutors are available each evening to provide assistance in English, mathematics, history, science, and other courses in the general education curriculum. Student tutors are available Monday through Thursday and Sunday evenings from 6:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m. There is a mathematics lab, and assistance for subjects including science, history, and literature. Writing Center The Writing Center is designed to provide a service to students who would like individualized help with their writing. It is directed by an English Department faculty member, and staffed by undergraduates who have proven to be especially proficient in their writing skills. Students are encouraged to visit the Center to conference about the writing process, to brainstorm topics with peers, or to work with other writers on essays, research papers, and other assignments. The Center is open for appointments, and for drop-in visits, weekdays until 9:00 p.m. 24 Student Life Evening College is dedicated to providing a positive environment that attends to a student's intellectual, emotional, spiritual and social development. LaGrange College sponsors a variety of scheduled events and activities for your enjoyment, as well as programs designed to support your development as a student. We welcome and encourage your full participation. In addition to providing a positive climate for growth and development, LaGrange College is committed to fostering an honorable standard of conduct for all within our community. The college regulations are formulated to meet changing student needs within the framework of college policy. These regulations are effective when the student enrolls. The specific policies with regard to student conduct are reviewed with all new students during orientation. In addition, the statement of conduct is published in the LaGrange College Bulletin and the Student Handbook and Panther Planner. Development and Well Being All new students are invited to the Evening College Orientation. This half-day event introduces students to campus policies, procedures, and resources and to the staff who are available to support and advise throughout the course of the program. Small group sessions allow new and returning students to meet and share, to encourage discussion of the transition to college life. The Office of the Chaplain coordinates chapel services held each Sunday evening at 10 p.m. when college is in session. These spirited worship services provide opportunity for celebration, for reflection, and for fellowship with other students. Rev. Quincy Brown is also available for individual counseling in his office in Smith Hall. The Counseling Office located on the first floor of Smith Hall offers counseling in a variety of areas. Students needing a confidential resource for short-term counseling should contact Director Pamela Scotto. Areas in which counseling is offered include stress reduction, conflict resolution, substance abuse, and interpersonal relations. The facilities of the Aquatics Complex are available for recreational and lap swimming year-round. In addition, the facilities and equipment of the Physical Education Department are available for recreational use when not otherwise scheduled for instructional, athletic, or intramural use.

Honors Day is an annual spring event highlighting outstanding student achievement. Dean's List students are recognized, and departmental honors are awarded. Evening student inductees into Alpha Sigma Lambda Academic Honor Society are announced during this celebration. 26 Academic Policies Class Attendance Students are expected to attend all class sessions including labs, for all courses. If a student must be absent, all matters related to student absence, including makeup work, must be arranged with the professor. Each course syllabus makes a clear statement about policies related to absences. Please note that excessive absences may result in an administrative withdrawal with a grade of "W " or " WF". Students are expected to be present for all quizzes or final examinations, unless the reasons for absences are acceptable to the professor. Grades and Credits The definitions of grades given at LaGrange College are as follows: A - superior B - above average C - average D - below average F - failing I - incomplete. This is a temporary grade, assigned by the instructor if a student is doing satisfactory' work and, for reasons beyond the student's control, cannot complete the work for the quarter. NC - no credit W - withdrawn. An automatic ' W is given if the student withdraws after the end of drop and add but before the completion of three weeks of class. After the deadline for automatic withdrawal passes, the instructor will assign a ^ W or a 'WF" depending upon the student's status. WF - withdrawn, failing AW - audit, withdrawn AU - audit, complete NR - grade not reported by the instructor 27 Declaration of Major A student may declare his/her academic major after successfully completing 22 quarter hours. Students must declare a major by the time they have completed 75 quarter hours of course work. The declaration of major is initiated in the Evening College office, and must be signed by the student's academic advisor and by the appropriate department chair. The major requirements are based on the Bulletin in effect when the major is declared, not on the Bulletin of entry. Honor Code Students at LaGrange College sign the Honor Code, which states, As a member of the student body of LaGrange College, I confirm my commitment to the ideals of civility, diversity, service, and excellence. Recognizing the significance of personal integrity in establishing these ideals within our community, I pledge that I will not lie, cheat, steal, nor tolerate these unethical behaviors in others. The Honor Council deals with students accused of violating the Honor Code. The Honor Council is selected each spring by the outgoing Chair of the Honor Council, The Dean of Students, and the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean. A member of the faculty serves as advisor. Members of the faculty are strongly urged to support the efforts of the Honor Council by reporting all suspected violations of the Honor Code. The Honor Code assumes that any student witnessing or otherwise having knowledge of an Honor Code violation will report the violation to the course instructor, the Chair of the Honor Council, or the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean. (For a complete description of the Honor Code, please see the Student Handbook.) The following are violations of the Honor Code: 1. Lying. 2. Cheating by either giving aid to or receiving aid from a student or other source without the consent of the faculty member or plagiarizing (using another person's words or ideas without documenting them properly). 3. Stealing (intentionally taking or appropriating without the right or permission any individual, organizational, or institutional property. This includes, but is not limited to, stealing off campus, stealing fi-om any person or business representatives on this campus, stealing fi*om 28 a computer company or any other computer-related theft, from the telephone system, vending machines, a residence hall visitor, or any other business while it is on this campus, and removal of any material or equipment from the Library or other facilities without permission.) 4. Failure to report a violation of the Honor Code. 5. Failure to appear before the Honor Council as requested by written notice. 6. Failure to maintain confidentiality regarding an Honor Council case. Sanctions include: a grade of F in the course; suspension for one academic term; dismissal from the College; or lowering the final grade in the course by one letter or assigning a grade of zero to the related academic work (assignments, tests, case study, etc.). An investigation and hearing shall be confidential and those within the bounds of confidentiality shall not divulge anything that is said or done with regard to these proceedings to anyone outside the bounds of confidentiality. Should anyone outside the bounds of confidentiality receive information which is considered to be confidential, he or she will automatically be bound by confidentiality. Those within the bounds of confidentiality include Council members, the faculty advisor to the Council, the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean, the President, accusers, the accused, witnesses, persons interviewed during the investigation, victims, and the College's attorney. In addition, the accused may include within the bounds of confidentiality his or her parents, faculty, staff, minister, personal or legal counsel. All tests at the College are conducted under the Honor Code. Accordingly, instructors may leave the room during the examination and students are on their honor to do their own work. The Honor Code should be abbreviated on the outside of the test and signed by the student before handing in the examination. The student should leave all books and materials not pertaining to the test either in the hall outside the classroom, or next to the wall in front of the classroom. Students should take the test in the designated classroom, except under extenuating circumstances or by prior arrangement. Work prepared out of class should be that of the individual. Any assistance from fellow students, books, periodicals, or other materials should be carefully acknowledged. Instructors should give specific guidance regarding what constitutes a violation of the Honor Code. If any doubts about plagiarism arise, a question should be raised by the instructor. A student should never copy a section of an old term paper and submit it as his or her own, and the student should be guided in the use of these materials by the wishes of the instructor. 29 Every person found to have violated the Honor Code has the right of subsequent appeal. Such appeal is made to the Academic Dean of the College. The Appeals Board shall be the President of the Student Government Association, the Appeals Representative of the Honor Council, a student member selected for each Appeals hearing selected by the Academic Dean and the President of the Honor Council, the President or Past President of the Faculty Assembly, and the Academic Dean. The appeal is heard from the record of the Honor Council hearing, the attending written statement of the student requesting the appeal, and the written statement of the Honor Council President. The Appeals Board has the discretion to overturn the Council's decision and/or change a sanction imposed by the Council, but it is confined to the approved sanctions in the Honor Code. Student Appeals There are processes by which students may petition regarding academic issues, including Academic Forgiveness, Grade Appeals, and Appeal of Academic Policy. The procedures are detailed in the LaGrange College Bulletin and summary information is also maintained in the Evening College Office. Student Status Student status is determined based on successful completion of credit hours, per the following. Freshman 1 - 45 hours Sophomore 46-89 hours Junior 90-134 hours Senior 1 35 or more hours Students may declare their academic major after completion of 22 quarter hours. Please note that no grade below 'C in any course about the 100 level may be applied toward a major. 180 hours are required for completion of the B.A. in Business Administration, and - for students who declared the major prior to summer 2001 - for the B.A. in Criminal Justice. 90 credit hours are required for the completion of the Associate of Arts in Liberal Studies degree.

A. in Liberal Studies. To obtain the Business Administration degree, a student must complete 180 quarter hours including the General Education curriculum and major courses; a departmental assessment, and the Academic Profiles test are also required. Students pursuing the Liberal Studies degree will satisfy their requirement upon successful completion of the 90-hour General Education curriculum and the Academic Profiles test. Current students who declared a major prior to the summer 2001 term may earn a B.A. or an A. A. in Criminal Justice. Students pursuing the B.A. must complete 180 quarter hours including the General Education curriculum and major courses, a departmental assessment, and the Academic Profiles test. Students pursuing the A. A. in Criminal Justice must complete a 60-hour Education curriculum, 40 hours within the department, the assessment, and the Academic Profiles test. Candidates for degrees must earn, at a minimum, a 2.0 quality point average. The QPA is determined by multiplying the grade point by the course credit, summing, and then dividing the total quality points earned by the total GPA hours. Quality points are assessed as follows: A-4, B-3, C-2, D-1, F-0. Candidates must also meet the residency requirements for Evening College. Generally, B.A. students must accomplish the last 60 hours in Evening College. With the approval of the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Dean, students may earn 15 hours of transient credit during their final 90 hours, allowing them to fulfill the residency requirement with 75 hours in Evening College. Candidates for the associate degree must accomplish the last 30 hours in Evening College. While each student will work with a faculty advisor to plan her/his academic program, the ultimate responsibility for insuring that all degree requirements are accomplished rests with the student. 31 General Education Curriculum LaGrange College is first and foremost a liberal arts college.
