LaGrange College 

Bulletin 



In this one hundred and fifteenth year of service LaGrange Col- 
lege presents the annual catalog, 1945-46. LaGrange College is a 
four year liberal arts college for young women. Its objective is 
Christian education for Christian living. Its purpose is the develop- 
ment of social and mental poise for citizenship and the faithful per- 
formance by the individual student of present duties in preparation 
for future service in home, Church, community, and State. In this 
fourth year of war prevailing conditions add emphasis to the value 
of an educational program designed to assist students in meeting 
the stress of war emergencies, but also to transmit intact the price- 
less heritage of Christian culture. 




Entered as second class matter at the Post Office at LaGrange, Georgia, 
under act of August 24th, 1912.

On December 26, 1831, the legislature of the State of Georgia 
gave a Christmas present to the young women of Georgia in grant- 
ing the first charter in the history of the state to a school for the 
education of women. This was a revolutionary idea at this time, 
but through the years it has justified the wisdom of the founding 
fathers. The college is located in the center of the city of LaGrange 
on the highest hill over-looking the city, which through the years 
has become spiritually as well as physically the center of the 
city's life. Since 1857 the college has been owned by the Methodist 
Church, but it is non-sectarian in its program, and includes in its 
fellowship students of every Christian faith. The campus of fifteen 
acres is marked by entrance gates from Bellevue, the old home of 
Benjamin Harvey Hill, who was one of the early trustees of the 
college. Oreon Smith Hall, the oldest building in the group, repre- 
sents 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 residence 
halls for freshmen. Therein is the prayer hall, where evening ves- 
pers 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 buildings is 
repeated in new Pitts Building. Retaining the features of southern 
architecture, it offers the newest and most modern conveniences 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. On the campus also is the 
Little White House, the home of the dean, and the Warren Candler 
Cottage, a gift of Chairman S. C. Dobbs, as the home of the 
president. 

A recent campaign for endowment has placed the college on a 
sound financial basis and has guaranteed its future financial sta- 
bility. Generous gifts have been made by Dr. S. C. Dobbs, Chair- 



LaGrange College 



man of the Board of Trustees, Mr. and Mrs. W. I. H. Pitts, Cason J. 
Callaway, Fuller E. Callaway, W. N. Banks, D. T. Manget, W. H. 
Turner, Jr., Chairman of the Executive Committee, and many 
other interested friends. The total of these gifts will amount to 
more than $600,000, which, together with former invested funds of 
the college and the capitalized value of annuities, will give the col- 
lege in excess over one million dollars in endowment funds. The 
income from these funds will be used to strengthen the educational 
program, to supplement the salaries of faculty members, and in the 
current annual operation of the college. A generous bequest from 
the estate of Ben L. Redwine, of Coweta County, has been handled 
for the college by Mr. Dan T. Manget and Mr. W. N. Banks, of 
Newnan, Georgia, members of the Board of Trustees. Mr. V. E. 
Manget, of Newnan, has also been most helpful in working out the 
details of this estate to the great benefit of the college. The estate 
includes 3600 acres of improved farm land located in Coweta 
County near Newnan, Georgia, and various stocks and bonds. 

A recent gift of $10,000 was offered the college on condition that 
it be applied to the building of a new library on the campus to be 
known as the Smith Memorial Library, honoring Miss Maidee 
Smith and Mr. Rufus Smith, former president of the college. The 
Board of Trustees at its autumn meeting in 1944 authorized the 
raising of the funds to match this gift for the erection of the build- 
ing at the end of the war. 

LaGrange College is a member of the Georgia Association of 
Colleges. 

LaGrange College is a member of the Association of American 
Colleges. LaGrange College has applied for full membership in the 
Southern Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges. 

LaGrange College is fully accredited by the University Senate 
of the Methodist Church and the State Department of Education 
of the State of Georgia.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES 

ORGANIZATIONS 

The Student Government Association, based on powers 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 religious 
organization in which all students hold membership. A council, as- 
sisted by a faculty advisory committee, plans and promotes the re- 
ligious activities of the college program. A daily vesper service is 
held by the students for prayer, meditation, and religious in- 
struction. 

The Athletic Association, composed of the entire student 
body under the supervision of the physical education director, con- 
trols the program of the college sports. It formulates rules for eligi- 
bility 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 pro- 
ductions of the speech department. Its membership is composed 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. Members 
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 spon- 
sors several art exhibits of national and state importance. 



10 LaGrange College 

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 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 demon- 
strations. Membership is limited to students majoring 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 con- 
ferred 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 1943-1944 are listed: 

Honor Club: Paula Copeland, Kate Foster, Sara Grubbs, Bar- 
bara Jackson, Amy Frances Lindsey, Jean Loftin, Frances Rountree, 
Rebecca Smith. 

Fine Arts Honor Club: Hazel Cannon. 

Secretarial Science Honor Club: Dorothy McEwen, Dot 
Taylor. 

Social Clubs: Social clubs are based on the campus sorority 
system. The four sororities include all students on the campus. The 
inter-sorority council creates and promotes cooperation among these 
social groups. Informal parties are held frequently on the campus 
and formal banquests are given in honor of members twice during 
the school year. Other social clubs include the Town Girls' Club, 
Preachers' Kids, OF Club, and the Newnan Club.

group honored is selected by a faculty committee chosen by the 
Scroll staff. Those selected in 1944 were June Barbour, Barbara 
Jackson, and Martha Norwood.

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 voluntary services 
to the college. 

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

The files and records of graduates are kept in the office of the 
registrar. 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 registrar's 
office. 

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. 

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. 



14 LaGrange College 



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 at- 
tended covering her work. This rule may be abated for students 
in speech, music, or art only, who do not enter the college dorm- 
itory 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 at- 
tending. These should be sent in before the summer vacation. Can- 
didates v/ill 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 subjects 
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 prescribed. 
The remaining seven are to be selected from the list of elective units given 
below.

REQUIREMENTS FOR DEGREES 

The college offers two degrees, Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor 
of Science. The requirements of each degree call for a four years' 
course. 

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



LaGrange College

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 freshman and seniors is fourteen 
hours, exclusive of physical education. The minimum for sopho- 
mores and juniors is fifteen hours. The maximum semester in the 
Bachelor of Arts course for freshmen and sophomores is seventeen 
hours; for juniors and seniors, eighteen hours. 

GRADUATION IN THREE YEARS 

Students who find it desirable in the light of the present war 
emergency to accelerate their college course may complete it in three 
years. To do so the student must take heavier work the last two 
years and must attend two summer schools. Any student wishing 
to follow this accelerated course must plan her work in detail with 
the Dean.

theory and history of music is on the basis of one hour of credit for each 
hour of recitation work.

STUDENT LIFE 

Student life at LaGrange College is based on comradeship in a 
congenial atmosphere. The Student Government Association is a 
symbol of the democratic ideal for student life on the campus. 
Every student is a member of the Association and with the aid of 
the Student Council seeks to uphold the spirit of honor and truth 
in cooperation and service. 

There are numerous interest groups on the campus with which 
students are invited to affiliate, affording opportunity for the de- 
velopment of special interests and abilities: such clubs as the Cam- 
era Club, the International Relations Club, the Home Economics 
Club, etc. The Athletic Association has arranged a program to meet 
the needs of all of the students. The objective of this group is the 
promotion of interest in athletics and physical development. The 
Y. W. C. A. is a voluntary religious organization which, as its name 
implies, deals with the spiritual development and places special em- 
phasis on creative living. Week-day vespers after dinner are held 
in the Prayer Hall under the direction of the students in this or- 
ganization. The Baptist Student Union, the Methodist Student 
Movement, and the Presbyterian Student Association are active on 
the campus. The Chapel Choir and Concert Choir afford opportu- 
nity for the development of interest in good music, and these groups 
are trained under the direction of the head of the voice department. 

Every girl who comes to the college is invited to join one of the 
four local sororities. The Inter-Sorority Council promotes the spirit 
of social life of the campus. 

On arrival at the college, the student presents her registration 
card with complete information for enrollment. The rooms are 
furnished with heavy furniture, but each student furnishes her own 
bed linens, blankets, towels, curtains, and other decorative items 
for her room. The student bank is operated for the benefit of board- 
ing students, and all personal cash should be deposited in this bank, 
and it may be checked out as desired. The college does not assume 
responsibility for money kept in the student's room. 

Students wishing to leave the college for visits to their homes or 
elsewhere off the campus must have permission from their parents. 
This permission must be mailed direct to the Dean of Women and 
not enclosed in letters to the students. No student is permitted to 
spend the night in LaGrange off the campus, except with relatives. 
Guests are welcomed at the college for weekends, but must not be 
invited until their entertainment is arranged for through the Dean 
of Women.

Non-resident students - _ 1 2.00 

This is payable, half upon entrance and half at the beginning of 
the second semester. Checks for this fee should be made to the 
Student Government Association. 

While we have listed in the above schedule every item of neces- 
sary expense, there are some items, the aggregation of which is 
small, and 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 



LaGrange College 45 



to the church, Sunday school, and other organizations, in order that 
she may return to her community with convictions as to her indi- 
vidual duty. 

We suggest to parents the advisability of requiring their daugh- 
ters to keep an itemized account of personal expenditures. Young 
women should be taught the golden mean between extravagance 
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 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, di- 
rectly through the mails, addressed to the Register, and not to the 
student, before any subject may be dropped. 

All dues must be settled in cash before students can receive di- 
plomas 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 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 en- 
gaged in their calling who enter their daughters as boarding stu- 
dents. All "Specials" are charged at the regular rates. 



46 LaGrange College 



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 Scholar- 
ships to the value of one hundred dollars in the Boarding Depart- 
ment 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 loaned to students at the college. 

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 ap- 
plications 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 LaGRANGE COLLEGE 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 impressions 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.
