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.

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!

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.
