LaGrange College 1978-1979 Student Handbook

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,
An 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.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

What a thrill it is to write a word of welcome to you who are coming to LaGrange College as
students. Since I too will be new we will want to get acquainted soon.

You will find that the faculty, staff, and returning students are anxious to assist you in getting
the most from your college experiences. No other period of your life holds greater promise for ex-
citement and growth. We at LaGrange College place the full development of our students as our
first priority. Never hesitate to call upon me or anyone in our administration or faculty for what-
ever help you desire.

Let me wish for you the most meaningful college experience possible and pledge to you my
support and personal friendship.

Dr. Charles L. Hagood
President

Dear Students,

Welcome to LaGrange College. We are happier than you know to have you on our campus.
Your presence will renew our enthusiasm and inspire us. to fresh, new insights. We hope that La-
Grange will make a significant contribution to your personal growth. We shall be interested in you
as an individual and shall wish to help you develop your potential to its fullest extent.

People are more important than things. You will want to become acquainted not only with
those mentioned in this booklet, but also with all others you meet. Association with people is as
vital as textbook knowledge. It is our conviction that most of the people on this campus are
friendly, willing to be of assistance, and desire in return your friendship.

Let us urge you to take part in campus life. Your Student Government Association is the voice
of the student body and is very effective. There are many interest groups and social clubs on cam-
pus which can give you an outlet for your talents. Become involved-that's the key to success.

Every facet of your new experience will be rewarding-not just in the next few weeks or the next
few years, but for many years to come.

We are glad you are at LaGrange. Do come by our offices and visit with us.

Sincerely,

Dear Fellow Students,

Choosing a college is one of life's major decisions. I am glad you chose LaGrange College and
let me commend you for being accepted.

You will find the students, faculty, and administration warm and friendly. Here, a balanced at-
mosphere of study, recreation, and fellowship abounds. Certainly, your primary motivation for
continuing your schooling is to broaden your educational horizons. At a liberal arts college such
as LC, you can become schooled in a broad number of curriculums. I encourage you to take ad-
vantage of as many varied courses as possible. Knowledge of a wide variety of subjects will most
certainly be an asset to all of your future undertakings.

But there is more to college than formal schooling. Grasp the opportunity to engage in recrea-
tional activities and seize the chance to join campus organizations. If you supplement your formal
studies with these other activities, I am sure you will find your college career both educationally
rewarding and socially enjoyable.

Be friendly! Become involved with your fellow students. . get to know them, be open, and ex-
change ideas. Fellowship is an important aspect of all human endeavor. Everyone needs friends to
share his or her hopes, joys, and expectations. Get acquainted with the professors and members of
the administration. I think you will find them willing to listen to your concerns-and eager to help.

On behalf of the student body, let me again welcome you. You have our wishes for the best of
luck while here at LaGrange College.

Sincerely,

Rick Herbert
President

PURPOSE OF THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT

The purpose of the Association shall be to encourage
students to assume individual and group responsibility in
the community life at LaGrange College, to maintain a
high standard of honor in every phase of college life,
and to develop a sense of loyalty to the ideals of the
Association.

Student Government at LaGrange College is designed
to offer students a democratic experience during their
stay in college. In hopes of creating within students
more of an awareness and responsibility for our demo-
cratic system of living, the Student Government strives
to direct all matters pertaining to student affairs. Every
student has his own personal responsibility as a member
of this campus democracy.

Matters pertaining to Student Government are under
the general direction of the Student Government Asso-
ciation and its branches and by the Dean of Students
and the Student Affairs Committee.

The S.G.A. has three branches. The Executive Council,
under the direction of officers elected by a campus-wide
vote, coordinates all student activities on the campus.
The Legislative Council makes the rules which regulate
the democratic living of LaGrange College students. The
Judicial Council may try cases involving dishonesty and
serious misbehavior as determined by the rules and regu-
lations.

STUDENT CONDUCT and RESPONSIBILITY

LaGrange College has high standards of conduct. Lying,
cheating, and stealing are not countenanced. The pos-
session or consumption on campus of any type of alco-
holic beverage or other intoxicant is forbidden.

Possession of any type of drug in one's room, car, or off
campus will constitute grounds for suspension and any
persons involved may be asked to leave campus within
twelve hours. These persons will also be turned over to
the proper law authorities. All students occupying a
room where drugs are found are considered responsible
unless investigation reveals only one possessor.

In offenses involving issues of honor, the Judicial Coun-
cil of the student government will determine involve-
ment. The Council's recommendations are subject to re-
view and/or advice from the President of the College.
Where an offense is proven to be one of serious social
misconduct, the Dean of Students has authority for dis-
ciplinary action. Where there are infractions of standards
of integrity in the academic area, the Academic Dean
has authority in dismissal. Off campus activities of So-
cial Organizations are subject to the jurisdiction of state
and local authorities.

Responsibility for maintenance of honorable conduct in
academic and social activities is entrusted to the stu-
dents in cooperation with the faculty and administration.
To this end each student, upon enrollment, signs the fol-
lowing pledge:

"In recognition of the obligations and privileges of
membership in the student body of LaGrange Col-
lege, I hereby agree to obey all rules and regula-
tions of the College; to respect and to cooperate
with its constituted authorities; to conduct myself
honorably; and at all times to live in such a manner
as to reflect credit upon myself, my family and the
College. I realize that failure to comply with this
pledge subjects me to disciplinary action."

A student whose conduct indicates that he or she is not
in sympathy with the ideals and standards of the College
or who seems unable to profit from its program may be
asked to withdraw.

Any student that feels that his or her rights have been
violated or that he or she has been falsely accused may
request a hearing before the Student Conduct Committee
of the faculty or the Student Affairs Committee of the
Board of Trustees.

GENERAL RULES FOR STUDENTS

DORMITORY REGULATIONS

The doors of the women's dormitories are to be lock-
ed at 12:00 on Sunday through Thursday nights, and
at 2:00 on Friday and Saturday nights for the safety
of the women residents. The Night Watchman will
come by each dormitory every hour within 10 mi-
nutes before the hour and 10 minutes after the hour
and unlock the door to let residents enter, it is sug-
gested, for convenience purposes, that residents sign
out when leaving campus for an extended period of
time.

Quiet Hours

Every resident will observe the following quiet hours
on campus:

1. Sunday through Thursday 7:00 p.m. until 10:00
p.m. and 11:30p.m. until 9:00 a.m.

2. Friday and Saturday - 12:00 p.m. until 9:00 a.m.

Rooms

1. Student rooms are subject to inspection by admin-
istration or resident counselors at any time. Rooms
are normally inspected for cleanliness between 1
and 3 o'clock each Saturday afternoon by resident
counselors according to criteria established by the
respective Dormitory Councils. A $5.00 fine may
be assessed against an occupant who does not
comply with this rule.

2. Changes in roommates and rooms must be through
the resident counselors and with the approval of

5. Charges for rooms are listed in the College Bulle-
tin. Single rooms are available for students re-
questing them. Students not requesting private

mate. If, at the end of one week, the student is
still occupying a room on a single basis, the single
occupancy charge will be made. It is the responsi-
bility of the student to find a suitable roommate.
Willingness to accept a roommate will not consti-
tute grounds for waiving the single room charge.

the first week of the quarter will not be charged
for a private room for the remainder of the quar-
ter. Determination of whether single or double
room charges are applicable is the responsibility
of the Resident Counselor.

perty in the rooms they occupy.

cil for a flagrant major offense, or a repetition of such
an offense. Suspension and/or exclusion are subject to
review by the Dean of Students and the President of the
College.

THINGS SENIORS NEED TO KNOW

Graduate Record Exams

The GRE's can be taken at LaGrange College during the
winter quarter. There will be notices as to when these
are to be given. Seniors should check with Miss Alford in
Smith to get forms for the exam. This exam is required
by graduate schools as the SAT or ACT is required by un-
dergraduate colleges.

Petition for Graduation

Every senior must complete his petition for graduation
forms the quarter prior to his last quarter. These forms
are filled out with the aid of the applicant's advisor. Sen-
iors are not allowed to register for their last quarter un-
less these have been completed.

Caps and Gowns

These are to be purchased during the senior year. Every
senior is required to pay a $15.00 graduation fee. This is
usually paid the last quarter and covers the costs of the
diploma and cap and gown. There will be notices posted
as to when caps and gowns can be picked up in the Aca-
demic Dean's office in the Quillian Building.

Graduation Exercises

Graduation is usually held the first Saturday in June.
There is a required rehearsal on Friday before graduation.

Placement Office

The Placement Office is located in the Alumni Office in
the Smith Building. Its purpose is to aid in finding jobs
for LaGrange College graduates. Seniors should complete
forms in the Placement Office so their names and ma-
jors, etc. will be on file. There is no charge for this ser-
vice and can be very helpful to both the applicant as
well as prospective employers.

Transcript Requests

Requests for transcripts of academic work may be made
in the Registrar's Office. The first request is free of
charge with subsequent requests being $1.00 each.

Teacher Certification

Applicants can receive these forms from the Education
Department in Pitts Building. Along with the forms, aca-
demic transcript requests should be made in the Regis-
trar's Office the last quarter. For further advice, check
with a member of the Education Department.

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 path 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.
