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
entrance.
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 ort 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.

jects amounting to fifteen units. The units assigned to the subject
indicate the number of years, with five recitations (of not less than

STUDENT ACTIVITIES
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.
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 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.

the quadrangle
The Quadrangle is the college annual issued near the close of
the scholastic year.
THE SCROLL
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 SCROLL OF FAME"
The "Scroll of Fame," instituted in 1939, has for its purpose
the recognition of highest literary merit in creative writing.
Each year, those students who have made the best contributions
to the magazine during the year are selected by a committee of
the faculty chosen by the Scroll Staff; and pictures of these
students are permanently on the "Scroll of Fame" in the college
library. Last year, the following were chosen:
Mary Nell Bailey, '41; Shirley Barton, '40; Louise Hooks,
'41; Louise Salter, '42.
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 CURTAIN RAISERS
The college dramatic organization, The Curtain Raisers,
sponsors all production done by the Speech Department. It is
made up of students in the department of Speech, other students
in college who qualify for membership, and young men in the
vicinity who are admitted by application and try-out. A new
member is first admitted to the Studio Theatre Group, and after
creditable work has been done he is eligible for participation in
major production.

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.
THE CAMERA CLUB
The Camera Club has those students banded together who are
interested in picture-making and picture-taking. They utilize
a well-equipped darkroom and inspirational programs, such as
an exhibit of all those snapshots that received newspaper awards
last year.
HONOR CLUBS
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.
In 1939 the Fine Arts Honor Club and the Secretarial Science
Honor Club were established to give recognition to students of
outstanding ability in music, art, speech, or secretarial science.
The conditions for eligibility are similar to those for member-
ship in the Honor Club.
Election to one of these clubs is the highest distinction that
can be conferred upon a student.
The names of those who qualified for membership in the
Honor Club at the end of year 1939-1940 are given below:

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 distinc-
tions of merit."
In 1851 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-
tian 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
1 Acts Georgia Legislature approved Dec. 26, 1831, p. 4.
2 Acts Georgia Legislature approved Dec. 17, 1847, pp. 120-121.
3 Acts Georgia Legislature approved Dec. 26, 1851, p. 312.
46 LaGrange College
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 in 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 Christian
womanhood, that they may become teachers of all that is beauti-
ful 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 America,
'Superior Court, Troup County, August 6, 1934.
LaGrange College 47
and I have not seen LaGrange equaled for beauty and adapta-
tion."
BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT
The principal buildings of LaGrange College are the Dobbs
Auditorium, the Oreon Smith Memorial, the Harriet Hawkes
Memorial, and the new Residence Hall. 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 classrooms.
The Oreon Smith Building contains Hardwick Hall, used for
evening prayer, literary societies, student meetings, and Y. \V.
C. A. services; the college parlors, the social rooms, the Y. W. C.
A. room, the dining hall, the infirmary, the post office, book-
shop, 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 New Residence Hall (see cover) was completed in 1940.
It was made possible through the generous gifts of the people
of LaGrange, the Alumnae, and friends of the college through-
out the state, responding to the challenge of Dr. S. C. Dobbs,
chairman of the Board of Trustees, who gave $50,000 to the
Endowment Fund of the college as a matching gift. This build-
ing, combining the charm of the old South with the conven-
iences of modern architecture, provides accommodation for fifty
upper classmen, two faculty members, and a guest room.
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,
48 LaGrange College
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
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.
HIGHLAND COUNTRY CLUB
Every resident student is given the privilege of associate mem-
bership in the Highland Country Club with access to golf course,
tennis courts, and swimming pools.
LIBRARY
The library contains about twelve thousand volumes which
represent carefully selected reference books for the different de-
partments 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 departments 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.
LaGrange College 49
The biology laboratory is supplied with excellent micro-
scopes, slides, and specimens.

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 alumnae 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
tive alumnae or former students may reside a local chapter of
the Association shall be formed and so report to the President
of the Alumnae 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 alumnae news or changes in
address.

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 subpect 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 Dean
of Women. Such request must not be included in letter to the
daughter, but mailed directly to the Dean of Women.
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 ele-
vation 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.
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
54 LaGrange College
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 aggregation of which
is small, 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 systema-
LaGrange College 57
tically 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.
NOTES REGARDING EXPENSES
Checks should be made payable to LaGrange College.
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
special arrangement.
No discount will be allowed for absence from any cause except
sickness, and that only when the absence is for as long a 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.
58 LaGrange College
A deposit of fifteen dollars must be made in the Bookshop
at the opening of the term, for the purchase of books. No
accounts are open on our books for charges in the Bookshop;
books, stationery, and art materials are sold for CASH only.
The college will be closed for the Christmas holidays.
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 $62.50.
Courses 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 inter-
est 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.
LaGrange College 59
Circulars of information concerning these funds can be se-
cured 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.
