LaGrange College

LaGrangc College had its beginning in 1831 when education
for women was a revolutionary idea. This was before women's
colleges were permanently established, but LaGrange College
swept aside prejudice and stands today capable of answering
demands of the ever changing needs of modern education.

An atmosphere of the past, blended with the present, stands
guard about the venerable buildings that enclose the magnolia-
shaded quadrangle. The college entrance is marked by lamp
posts from Bellevue, home of Benjamin Harvey Hill, who was
a trustee of the college. Oreon Smith Hall, the oldest building
in the group, represents the rich heritage of the college. Its four
ivy-clad columns are known as Matthew, Mark, Luke, and
John. This building contains administrative offices, parlors,
the dining hall, and the residences for freshmen. Therein is
the prayer hall, where evening vespers are held daily by the
student group. Across the quadrangle is Dobbs Auditorium,
named in honor of Samuel C. Dobbs, benefactor and chairman
of the board of trustees. On the quadrangle front is Hawkes
Building, containing library, gymnasium, town girls' lounge,
and dormitory space. The architecture of these historic build-
ings is repeated in new Pitts Building. Retaining the features of
southern architecture, it offers the newest and most modern con-
veniences for the student's comfort. The campaign for this
building started when Hitler started through Holland and the
contract was let the day Paris fell. The Old South is happily
blended with the new era on the college campus. It stands as a
memorial to the abiding faith in the surviving value of Christian
culture.

Christian education for Christian living is stressed in all poli-
cies and activities of the college program. In preparing a report
on objectives of the college, a faculty and student committee
stated the following aims: the development of an appreciation
of Christian culture: the development of social and mental
poise for citizenship: and the faithful performance by the

10 LaGrange College

individual of present duty in preparation for service in home,
community, church, and state.

Recent bequests through the generosity of Dr. S. C. Dobbs
and the W. I. H. Pitts Foundation, Cason J. Callaway, Fuller
E. Callaway, and other interested friends have added much to
the stability of the finances of the college. On July 22, 1943
the Endowment Committee, W. N. Banks, S. C. Dobbs, Cason
J. Callaway, Dan T. Manget, Pierce Harris, W. H. Turner, Jr.,
and Hubert Quillian met in Atlanta to consider the endowment
needs of the college. At this meeting it was decided to raise a
half million dollars in new money for the college this year. Of
this amount two hundred and thirty-one thousand dollars was
pledged at the meeting and since that time pledges and cash had
been received by December first bringing the total to three hun-
dred thousand dollars. It is hoped that the balance of two
hundred thousand dollars may be in hand by Commencement
June 1, 1944.

A bequest from the estate of Ben L. Redwine during the year
will be available when the estate is liquidated. Mr. Dan T.
Manget has represented the college in handling this estate, and
due to his excellent management the legacy to the college from
this estate has been greatly enhanced in value.

The continuing cooperation of its friends will facilitate the
development of the college in its program of Christian education
and insure its financial stability for the future.

LaGrange College has been admitted to full membership in
the American Association of Colleges. It has been given full
accreditation by the University Senate of the Methodist Church.
It is on the approved list of the Southern Association of
Secondary Schools and Colleges.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES

ORGANIZATIONS

The Student Government Association, based on pow-
ers and laws granted by the administration, controls all matters
pertaining to conduct and the social life of the student body.
The life and work of the college is based on the honor system.

The Young Women's Christian Association is a reli-
gious organization in which all students hold membership. A
council, assisted by a faculty advisory committee, plans and
promotes the religious activities of the college program. A daily
vesper service is held by the students for prayer, meditation, and
religious instruction. On Sunday afternoons the Y. W. C. A.
sponsors a program of music or religious drama for the benefit
of the college and the community.

The Athletic Association, composed of the entire stu-
dent body under the supervision of the physical education di-
rector, controls the program of college sports. It formulates rules
for eligibility to athletic teams and conduct of interclass sports.
Maintenance of athletic equipment and promotion of wholesome
sportsmanship are responsibilities of this organization.

The Choral Club and Chapel Choir present annual
concerts at Christmas and in the spring. Numerous appearances
for the musical organizations are scheduled during the year in
the city and throughout the state.

The Curtain Raisers, dramatic organization, sponsors all
productions of the speech department. Its membership is com-
posed of students in the speech department and other students
qualifying for membership.

The LaGrange College Radio Theatre broadcasts
weekly over station WLAG, LaGrange.

Alpha Psi Omega is a national dramatic fraternity. Mem-
bers of the Curtain Raisers who have reached the requirements
set up by the national organization are invited to join.

The Art Club, composed of students in the art department,
is for the purpose of developing art appreciation. Each year it

12 LaGrange College

sponsors several art exhibits of national and state importance.

The International Relations Club is made up of
those students making history their major or minor subject.
It has for its main purpose the study of international relation-
ships. The program includes formal lectures, debates and round
table discussion.

The Horatian Club was organized for the purpose of
increasing interest in science by means of field trips, discussions,
and demonstrations. Membership is limited to students major-
ing in science and to other students showing exceptional ability
in scientific courses.

Honor Clubs. The honor club system was established in
1924. Eligibility is conditioned upon the literary hours taken
and the academic standing of the student. Members are elected
each year upon recommendation of the faculty.

The Fine Arts Honor Club and the Secretarial Science Honor
Club were established in 1939 to give recognition to students
of outstanding ability in music, art, speech, and secretarial
science.

Election to these clubs is the highest distinction that can be
conferred on a student. Such awards are made on Honors Day,
at which time a distinguished speaker is the guest of the college.

The names of those who qualified for membership in the
Honor Clubs during the academic year 1942-1943 are listed:

Honor Club: Mary D. Carter, Kate Foster, Betty Griffin,
Elizabeth Harrison, Barbara Jackson, Amy Frances Lindsey,
Rebecca Smith, Florence Thailkil.

Fine Arts Honor Club: Sarah Veatch."

COLLEGE PUBLICATIONS

The Quadrangle is the college year book issued annually
by an elected staff.

The Scroll is the literary magazine issued to encourage
creative writing. Students who do outstanding work on this
publication are entitled to membership in the QuiLL DRIVERS
Club.

LaGrange College 13

The Scroll of Fame is composed of students who are
outstanding in their contributions to the college magazine. Each
year the group honored is selected by a faculty committee chosen
by the SCROLL staff. Those selected in 1943 were Pat Barbour,
Marian Williams, and June Barbour.

ALUMNAE AND MATRICULATES ASSOCIATION

The LaGrange College Alumnae Association was organized
to keep the alumnae informed of the needs and welfare of the
college and to seek opportunity to express this interest by volun-
tary services to the college.

A reunion is held each year during commencement and all
graduates are invited to return to the college. At the meeting
in 1921, all matriculates were made eligible to membership in
the association. The dues are one dollar per year.

There is an alumnae office at the college under the direction
of Miss Maidee Smith. The files and records of graduates are
kept in this office. It is earnestly desired that alumnae chapters
be formed in localities where a sufficient number of graduates
live; therefore it is necessary that all changes of address be sent
to the alumnae office at the college.

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS

Students may be admitted by certificate or by examination.

Graduates of the accredited high schools are admitted without
examination, provided entrance requirements are satisfied.

Students from other than accredited schools are examined at
entrance.

16 LaGrange College

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

CERTIFICATE 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 certificates
to be filled out and signed by the principal of the school they
are attending. These should be sent in before the summer vaca-
tion. 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.

LaGrange College 17

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. Conditions are removed
by so distributing the courses taken in College as to make up for
those not taken in high school.

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 may 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.
Sucji students are not required to satisfy the formal requirements for
entrance into the freshman class, unless they are candidates for the
diploma in Art, Music, or Speech.

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 soph-
omores and juniors is fifteen hours. The maximum semester for
freshmen and sophomores is seventeen hours; juniors and

While we have listed in the above schedule every item of
necessary expense, there are some items, the aggregation of which
is small, and which, though not absolutely necessary, are advis-

LaGrange College 47

able. 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.

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.

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 ablity 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.
