ADMISSION OF STUDENTS

Students may be admitted by certificate or by examination.

Graduates of the accredited high schools are admitted with-
out examination, provided entrance requirements are satisfied.

Students from other than accredited schools are examined at
extrance.

All students entering the College must present fifteen entrance
units, whether or not they expect to take the full amount of
work leading to a degree.

CERTIFICATES OF ENTRANCE

Every student who enters for music, art, literary work, or
other course is expected to present a certificate from the last
school attended, covering her work. This rule may be abated
for students in speech, music, or art only, who do not enter the
college dormitory and are not seeking any certificate.

Students should secure from the College the blank certificate
to be filled out and signed by the principal of the school they
are attending. This should be sent in before the summer va-
cation. Candidates will find it much easier to attend to this
before their schools close for the summer.

REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION

For Entrance into Freshman Class. The applicant must offer sub-
jects amounting to fifteen units. The units assigned to the subject
indicate the number of years, with five recitations (of not less than
forty minutes in length) per week that is, the total amount of time
devoted to the subject throughout the year should be at least 120
"sixty-minute" hours.

Of the fifteen units which the applicant must offer, eight are pre-
scribed. The remaining seven are to be selected from the list of elec-
tive units given below.

1. Conditioned Students. Students graduated from accredited
high schools with fifteen units and lacking two or less of the pre-
scribed units may be admitted as conditioned students. All students,
however, must present three units of English. All conditions must
be removed before registering for the second year of college work.

2. Special Students. Teachers and other mature persons desiring
special courses may be admitted without formal examination, upon
satisfying the requirements of the departments they wish to enter.

3. Advanced Standing. Students who are prepared to enter
classes higher than freshmen can do so upon presenting satisfactory
credits to the Committee on Classification. No student may enter the
sophomore class without having twenty-four hours of college credits.

4. Irregular Students. Students graduated from accredited high
schools with fifteen units and who are not candidates for the degree
are permitted to register for work for which they are prepared.
Such students are not required to satisfy the formal requirements for
entrance into the freshmen class, unless they are candidates for
the diploma in Art, Music, or Speech.

DEFINITION OF ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS

For definition of entrance requirements, reference is made to
the definition by the Southern Association of Colleges and Sec-
ondary Schools at the meeting in 1928 in Jackson, Mississippi,
or the report of the Georgia High School Accrediting Commis-
sion, 1937-1938.

REQUIREMENTS FOR DEGREE

The College offers one degree, that of Bachelor of Arts. The
requirements of the degree call for a four years' course.

The unit of work is the semester hour. This means one reci-
tation period a week for eighteen weeks. A course calling for
three recitations a week for thirty-six weeks has a value of six
hours; a course calling for three recitations a week for one
semester has a value of three hours.

The minimum work required for graduation is one hundred
twenty-four hours, four of which must be in physical education.

The minimum semester for freshmen and seniors is fourteen
hours, exclusive of physical education. The minimum for
sophomores and juniors is fifteen hours. The maximum semes-
ter for freshmen is sixteen hours; sophomores, seventeen hours;
juniors and seniors, eighteen hours.

The Scroll, originally begun in January, 1922, as a news-
paper, was changed at the beginning of the 1933-'34 school
year to a literary magazine. The purpose of the Scroll is to
foster interest in literary activity among the students and to
provide a medium for the expression of this interest.

THE STUDENT'S HANDBOOK

The Student's Handbook is issued by the Student Govern-
ment Association. This is a manual of the student life of the
College and a guide to daily conduct.

THE QUADRANGLE

The Quadrangle is the college annual issued near the close of
the scholastic year.

THE YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION

The Young Women's Christian Association is developing
among the students a zeal for the cause of religion at home and
abroad. Besides conducting daily meetings for prayer and re-
ligious instruction, it promotes an intelligent interest in social
and moral problems. Graduates of the College in both the
home and foreign mission fields are a compensating evidence
of inspiration from this organization. A number of Bible and
mission study classes are carried on under the direction of the
faculty and more mature students. There is an attractive Y.
W. C. A. room on the first floor of the Oreon Smith Building.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION

An Athletic Association, composed of the members of the
student body, under the supervision of the physical director, has
control of outdoor sports. It assists in equipping the outdoor
courts and track, formulates the rules for eligibility in class and
college contests, and constantly encourages participation in all
outdoor games, maintaining always a high code of honor and
true sportsmanlike conduct in all forms of athletics.

LaGrange College 35

DRAMATIC CLUB

The Dramatic Club is for the purpose of studying plays,
ranging from Shakespeare to modern comedies. Public per-
formances are given at intervals throughout the year.

THE QUILL DRIVERS' CLUB

The Quill Drivers' Club is composed of students who have
done outstanding work on the Scroll. Membership is intended
as an honor and as an incentive to creative writing.

THE GLEE CLUB

The Glee Club gives annual concerts at Christmas and in the
spring, besides taking part in the major anniversaries of the
school year.

THE ART CLUB

The Art Club is for the purpose of developing art apprecia-
tion through the study of masters and their works and by
discussions regarding art and cognate subjects. The club is
composed of the students in the Art department and meets once
a month.

THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB

The International Relations Club is made up of those stu-
dents making history their major or minor subject. It has for
its main purpose the study of international relationships. The
programs include not only round-table discussions, but formal
debates and lectures.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION

The Student Government Association, based on powers and
laws granted it by the president and faculty, has control of all
matters pertaining to the conduct and social life of the students.
The life and work of the College is based on the honor system,
and this system applies not only to the rules and regulations
concerning conduct, but to midyear and final examinations.

36 LaGrange College

honor club

In January, 1924, the faculty recommended that an Honor
Club be established. Eligibility to this club is conditioned upon
the literary hours taken and the character and academic stand-
ing of the student. Members are elected each year from a list
of names submitted to the faculty for consideration. Election
to the Honor Club is the highest distinction that can be con-
ferred upon a student.

The names of those who qualified for membership in the
year 1937-1938 are given below:

Adrienne Ayers, '38; Shirley Barton, '40; Helen Erwin, '38;
Sara Frances Gibson, '40; Sue Hastey, '39; Jane Hunter, '41;

GENERAL INFORMATION

HISTORY

At the time of the founding of LaGrange College in 1831 1 ,
there were few institutions in the world devoted solely to the
higher education of women. Even at that early date, however,
LaGrange Female Academy was an institution of high grade.

In 1847 2 the charter was amended by the Legislature of
Georgia, changing the name to LaGrange Female Institute, with
all the rights of "conferring degrees, honors, and other dis-
tinctions of merit."

In 1 8 5 1 3 the charter was again amended, changing the name
to LaGrange Female College.

After several years of prosperity often two hundred and
fifty girls being in attendance the entire property was sold to
the Georgia Annual Conference of the M. E. Church, South. In
September, 1857, the college began its distinctive work of Chris-
tion education. In the ensuing years it has received patronage
from every section of the South.

In 1859 it took precedence over all church schools in sending
out the first resident graduate class in the South. Of this class,
Mrs. Alice Culler Cobb, afterwards a successful teacher in Wes-
leyan Female College, was an honored graduate. When well
established in a career of ever-increasing usefulness, its work
was arrested by a most disastrous fire on the 28th of March,
1860. The college property at that time consisted of a mag-
nificent building, ample chemical apparatus, a complete equip-
ment of costly musical instruments, a large and well-selected
library, and the best dormitory furnishings in the State. It
was said by one of the historians of Georgia that a small fortune
was at that time consumed in the way of fine old mahogany and
black walnut furniture. But fire was not to destroy this in-
stitution which had been dedicated to the advancement of South-
ern women. The friends of the college especially the generous-
hearted citizens of LaGrange and Troup County rallied to

the institution dear to their hearts. The Civil War again in-
terrupted, and for four years the old college stood an appealing
monument on the lofty hill that overlooked the desolate streets
of the beautiful town of LaGrange. At the close of the war,
its friends, with loyal perseverence and indomitable energy,
succeeded in rebuilding, and the college started on a long and
successful career. Since that time, under the presidency of
some of the most prominent lay and clerical members of the
M. E. Church, South, the college has sent forth from its halls
hundreds of scholarly women who have occupied prominent
positions in the various walks of life.

In 1934 the charter was made perpetual and the name was
changed to LaGrange College. 1

PURPOSE

LaGrange College strives to provide for its students an atmos-
phere permeated with the friendliness of congenial companions
and enriched by association with sympathetic teachers; to bring
them into contact with a type of scholarship which will arouse
in them a desire for the culture which such scholarship imparts;
to develop in them the highest and noblest impulses of Chris-
tian womanhood, that they may become teachers of all that is
beautiful in nature, best in books, and highest in character.

LOCATION

LaGrange College is located in the City of LaGrange, Troup
County, Georgia. LaGrange is seventy-one miles from Atlanta,
on the Atlanta and West Point Railroad, one hundred and five
miles from Macon, and about half-way between Brunswick and
Birmingham on the Atlanta, Birmingham and Coast Railroad.

The College is situated on a hill, one-half mile from the busi-
ness portion of the town. The campus, which is twelve acres in
extent, is 832 feet above the sea level, in a region on the upper
side of Pine Mountain, with natural drainage in all directions.
The extreme cold of the higher mountains and the heat of the
lower lands are both avoided. Mr. Sears, agent of the Peabody
Fund, said: "I have traveled extensively in Europe and Amer-

Superior Court, Troup County, August 6, 1934.

LaGrange College 41

ica, and I have not seen LaGrange equaled for beauty and
adaptation."

BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT

The principal buildings of LaGrange College are the Dobbs
Auditorium, the Oreon Smith Memorial, and the Harriet
Hawkes Memorial. The Dobbs Building is three stories high. It
contains the Department of Music, the Art and Speech Studios,
the Science Department, the Auditorium, and various class-
rooms.

The Oreon Smith Building contains Hardwick Hall, used for
evening prayer, literary societies, student meetings, and Y. W.
C. A. services; the college parlors, the social rooms, the Y. W.
C. A. room, the dining hall, the infirmary, the post office,
bookshop, and offices of the President, the Dean and Registrar,
and the Secretary, on the lower floors. The entire upper floor is
used for dormitory purposes.

The Harriet Hawkes Building was completed in 1911. It
contains the gymnasium, the library and reading room, and
classrooms. The upper floors contain dormitory rooms, fitted
with single beds and all equipment for two students each. The
floors all have broad verandas. All buildings are electric lighted
and steam heated.

THE PRESIDENT'S HOME

Through the generosity of Dr. S. C. Dobbs and family, there
was built during the summer of 1929 a handsome brick bunga-
low to be used as a home for the president of the college. This
convenient and comfortable home, located on the northwest side
of the campus a short distance from the administration building,
was erected by the donors in honor of their distinguished kins-
man, the senior Bishop of our church. A memorial tablet bears
the following inscription:

Warren A. Candler Cottage

Erected in Honor of

A Profound Thinker

A Great Teacher

A Noble Christian Statesman

42 LaGrange College

gymnasium and athletic grounds

The gymnasium is located on the first floor of the Harriet
Hawkes Building.

To the rear of the gymnasium there is an athletic field, where
provision has been made for tennis, soccer, team and track work,
and baseball.

LIBRARY

The library contains about ten thousand volumes which rep-
resent carefully selected reference books for the different depart-
ments of the College.

Newspapers and magazines for general reading are kept on
the tables, and the students are encouraged to keep in touch with
present-day events.

LABORATORIES

The Department of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology are each
thoroughly equipped with apparatus and supplies for individual
work.

The chemistry laboratory is large, well lighted, and airy,
with supplies for a large number of students.

The physics laboratory is well equipped with high-grade
apparatus for accurate work.

The biology laboratory is supplied with excellent micro-
scopes, slides, and specimens.

LECTURES AND ENTERTAINMENTS

In addition to the frequent recitals given by members of the
faculty and students of the special departments, provision is
made for the students to attend lectures and concerts given by
prominent artists and lecturers under the auspices of the college.

ALUMNAE AND MATRICULATES' ASSOCIATION

The object of the Association is to preserve and quicken the
interest of the alumnae and former students, to keep alive girl-
hood friendships, and to create a helpful relationship toward
the College. The highest purpose of this organization is to keep
intelligently informed of the needs and welfare of the institution
and to seek opportunity to express this interest by voluntary
services for the College.

At the reunion in 1921, all matriculates were made eligible to
membership in this Association. The dues are one dollar per
year. All alumna? and former students are invited to become
actively identified with it.

The general Association has given over five thousand volumes
to the College library, over $2,000.00 in money for purchasing
new books, several scholarships to students, and has done much
toward beautifying the College campus.

It is earnestly desired that in every place where as many as
five alumnae or former students may reside a local chapter of
the Association shall be formed and so report to the President
of the Alumna? and Matriculates' Association headquarters.

The annual reunion is held during Commencement each year
and all are cordially invited to return to the College for that
meeting.

Please send to the College any alumna? news or changes in
address.

LaGrange College 47

INFORMATION TO PROSPECTIVE PATRONS

By enrollment with us, students pledge themselves to abide
by the rules of the College.

No student will be enrolled in any subject unless she presents
a registration card properly filled out and duly signed.

Parents desiring their daughters to come home or to visit
elsewhere during the session must first send request to the
president. Such request must not be included in letter to the
daughter, but mailed directly to the president.

By request of parents, permission will be given to visit stu-
dents living outside of LaGrange during the spring holidays
and Christmas holidays.

Students are not permitted to spend the night out in town,
except with parents.

The College accepts as day students only those who are resi-
dents of LaGrange or who are living with a near relative.

HEALTH

Upon entrance, students are required to stand a medical ex-
amination by the college physician.

A close supervision is exercised over the health of boarding
pupils. All cases of sickness are required to be reported imme-
diately to the nurse; in case of serious sickness, a physician is
called. The perfect sanitary arrangement, good water, and
elevation and freedom from malaria have prevented sickness
to a degree unsurpassed by any similar institution in the state.

FURNITURE

The College supplies the students' rooms with heavy furni-
ture. Each student is expected to furnish her own towels, pillow,
sheets, blankets, spreads for single beds, and any other articles
desired for use in her room. Students must not bring electric
irons; these are furnished by the College.

48 LaGrange College

GUESTS

Patrons and friends of the College are always welcome to its
hospitality. As all visitors are guests of the College, and not of
individuals, a student who wishes to invite a guest must consult
the matron to know whether the guest room is available.
Guests may be entertained only from Saturday afternoon until
Monday morning. No charge is made parents and sisters of
students. Payment is required for the entertainment of friends
at the rate of one dollar and a half per day. All guests are
expected to conform to the dormitory regulations.

EXTRA STUDENT EXPENSES

While we have listed in the above schedules every item of
necessary expense, there are some items, the aggregate of which
is small such as literary society and student association dues
which, though not absolutely necessary, are advisable. A young
woman is sent away to college to be educated, not only in books,
but for life, and she should be taught to give systematically to
the church, Sunday school, and other organizations, in order
that she may return to her community with convictions as to
her individual duty.

We suggest to parents the advisability of requiring their
daughters to keep an itemized account of personal expenditures.
Young women should be taught the golden mean between ex-
travagance and too rigid economy.

LaGrange College 51

notes regarding expenses

Checks should be made payable to LaGrange College.

Two hundred dollars should be paid upon entrance in
September.

Students are not allowed to register until satisfactory financial
arrangements are made.

No deductions will be made for pupils who enter within one
month after the semester opens.

No student will be received for less than a semester, except by

period as ONE MONTH.

In the event of withdrawal on account of sickness, the
amount paid for board in advance of date of leaving will be
refunded, but not the amount paid for tuition.

No deduction will be made for the holidays. Students not
returning after Christmas will be charged to the end of the
semester.

Written permission must be sent by the parents or guardian,
directly through the mails, addressed to the Registrar, and not
to the student, before any subject may be dropped.

All dues must be settled in cash before students can receive
diplomas or transcript of credits.

Students are entitled to the first transcript of their records
free of charge. For other transcripts a fee of one dollar will
be charged.

A deposit of fifteen dollars must be made in the Bookshop
at the opening of the term, for the purchase of books. No

52 LaGrange College

DISCOUNTS

When two or more boarding students are entered from the
same family, a discount for board and literary tuition will be
allowed, provided payment is made in advance, and provided
both sisters remain the whole semester.

A discount of $125.00 will be made to ministers regularly
engaged in their calling who enter their daughters as boarding
students. All "Specials" are charged at the regular rates.

To ministers regularly engaged in their calling who send
their daughters as day students is given a discount of one-half
the literary tuition. Branches under the head of "Specials"
are charged for at the regular rates.

SCHOLARSHIPS

The Board of Trustees authorizes the President to Offer
Scholarships to the value of one hundred dollars in the Boarding
Department for one year to the honor graduates of accredited
high schools.

LOAN FUNDS

Students may be able to borrow from certain special funds
of the College enough money to defray a large part of their
expenses. This money loaned to a student begins to bear interest
at six per cent at the end of the year in which it was used.

Mr. William S. Witham, of the Board of Trustees, donated
to the College the sum of $10,000.00 (which has increased to
over $28,000.00), to be lent to dependent girls.

Mrs. J. C. Davidson, of West Point, Ga., as a memorial to
her husband, gave $1,000.00 to be used as a loan fund.

Circulars of information concerning these funds can be

secured from the president. The decision as to who will be

accepted is vested entirely in a committee of the Board of
Trustees, to whom all applications will be referred.

STUDENT-AID

Student-aid positions are available to students whose academic
standing indicates their ability to carry the extra load of work.

THE L. C. GIRLS' CREED

Life is mine to live. That I may cherish it
And right loyally 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 impres-
sions into character.
To meet bravely the hard tasks of life;
To bring joy to those who sorrow, and
Strength 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 in the knowledge
Of Him, whom to know is Life Eternal.
