LaGrange College

La Grange College

The second oldest college for women in America, LaGrange
College, founded in 1831, has the longest continuous history of
any college for women in Georgia. It is named for the city of its
location, which bears the name of the estate of the Marquis de La-
fayette in France. Lafayette visited the Georgia community in 1825,
at which time the citizens named their community in his honor.

LaGrange College stands upon a hilltop in the residential sec-
tion of a city of 28,000 persons. The city is known for its pros-
perous textile industries, stately ante-bellum homes, active service
and cultural organizations, influential churches, beautiful parks,
modern public school system, and quality citizenry. The college is
located in an ideal college town.

The entrance and exit gates of the campus were taken from
Belleview, the estate of Benjamin Harvey Hill, and are replicas of
the wrought-iron gates at the White House in Washington.

Five buildings house the school activities. The freshman dormi-
tory is newly decorated and furnished with the best furniture. The
sophomore and junior-senior halls are equipped with modern fur-
nishings. Classroom and laboratory equipment are modern. The
music, secretarial science, home economics, art, and speech depart-
ments have adequate tools for superior work.

LaGrange College is a fully accredited institution with member-
ship in (1) The Georgia Association of Colleges, (2) The South-
ern Association of Colleges for Women, (3) The Southern Asso-
ciation of Colleges and Secondary Schools, (4) The American
Council on Education, (5) The Association of American Colleges,
and is accredited by the University Senate of the Methodist Church
and the Department of Education of the state of Georgia.

An able faculty maintains the highest academic standards. Mem-
bers of the faculty and staff are selected not only for their knowl-

LaGrange College

edge of their respective fields, but for their interest in spiritual
values. For that reason the aims of the college are in tune with the
loftiest spiritual aims of the Church. A study of curriculum, pro-
gram, activities, and organizations will reveal this fact.

Whereas LaGrange College was organized for the education of
young women, men are admitted as day students.

LaGrange College students attending graduate schools for ad-
vanced training find themselves well prepared for graduate and
professional study. Other graduates enter employment or marriage
with a sense of fitness. It is a first class institution of learning with
Christian foundations.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES
ORGANIZATIONS
The Student Government Association, based on powers
and laws granted by the administration, controls all matters per-
taining 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,
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 in-
struction.

The Athletic Association, composed of
the entire student body under the super-
vision of the physical education director,
controls the program of college sports. It
formulates rules for eligibility to athletic
teams and conduct of interclass sports.
Maintenance of athletic equipment and pro-
motion of wholesome sportsmanship are re-
sponsibilities of the organization.

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.

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 relationships. The
program includes formal lectures, debates and round table dis-
cussions.

The Kiwana- q Club was organized to further the interests
in all fields of home economics, as well as to promote friendship
and leadership among all home economics students.

10 LaGrange College

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

The Christadelphian Club was organized to promote whole-
some Christian living and fruitful activities on the campus and
throughout the LaGrange community. Membership is limited to
students majoring in religion.

Honors Clubs. The honors 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 recommendations of the faculty.

The Fine Arts Honors Club and the Secretarial Science Honors
Club were established 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 Honors
Clubs during the academic year 1948-1949 are listed:

Honors Club. Mary Jeannine Brown, Virginia Carlock, Clara
Belle Gilstrap, Beulah Grace Hadaway, Pauline Lane, Charlotte
Maxine Nail, Emily Lorene Price, Martha Louise Young.

Secretarial Science Honors Club. Wyndolyn Vineyard

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

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 banquets 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.

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.

14 LaGrange 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.

Officers of the LaGrange College Alumnae Association
President, Mrs. R. E. Erlicher, Atlanta, Georgia.
Secretary, Miss Winnie Clark, Atlanta, Georgia.
Treasurer, Miss Mary Traylor, LaGrange, Georgia.

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS

Students may be admitted by certificate or by
examination.

Graduates of the accredited high schools are
admitted without examination, provided en-
trance 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.

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 the work taken there. 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.

LaGrange College 15

LaGrange College

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 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 emphasis on creative living. Week day vespers after dinner
are held in the Prayer Hall under the direction of the students in
this organization. The Baptist Student Union, the Methodist Stu-
dent Movement, and the Westminster Fellowship are active on the

Here you see our monthly birthday party. Our dining
hall is famous for its Southern cuisine. Students reg-
ularly eat at tables for eight.

campus. The Chapel Choir and Harmonettes afford opportunity
for the development of interest in good music, and these groups
are trained under the direction of the head of the voice depart-
ment. The Curtain Raisers present several plays each year.

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 is given 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, a broom, rugs and
decorative items for her room. The student bank is operated for
the benefit of boarding 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 stu-
dent'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 her immediate family. Guests are welcomed at the college for
week-ends, but must not be invited until their entertainment is ar-
ranged for through the Dean of Women.

No boarding students will go home for the first four week-ends,
except in cases of real emergency. Football games and dates do
not constitute emergencies.

While we have listed in the above schedule every item of nec-
essary 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 systemati-
cally 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 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 for 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 deductions will be made for holidays. Students not returning
after Christmas will be charged to the end of the semester.

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

50 LaGrange College

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

The college will be closed for the Christmas holidays.

DISCOUNTS

When two or more boarding students are entered from the
same family, a ten percent discount on 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.

A professional discount of $62.50 per year will be allowed min-
isterial students who attend the school as day students and take a
full schedule of work. No discount is allowed for part time work.

SCHOLARSHIPS
The Witham Scholarship Fund

The Board of Trustees authorize the President to offer scholar-
ships from the Witham Scholarship Fund to the value of one
hundred dollars in the boarding department for one year to the
honor graduates of accredited high schools, and fifty dollars to
Beta Club members.

The Dobbs Fund

The Board of Trustees has set up an annual scholarship fund
of $1,000, to be known as the Dobbs Fund. This fund, honoring
Samuel C. Dobbs, is to be used for worthy students needing fi-
nancial aid.

The Martha Dixon Glanton Memorial Fund

This fund of $15,000 was set up by Mr. Henry D. Glanton of
LaGrange in memory of his mother. The income is used for
scholarship aid.

The Northern Scholarship Fund

This fund consists of dividends on the investment of $1,054.64
received from the family of T. H. Northern in memory of Mrs.
T. H. Northern.

LOANS
Students may be able to borrow from special funds of the col-
lege enough money to defray a large part of their expenses. This
money loaned to a student begins to bear interest at the end of
the year in which it was used.

LaGrange College 51

Mr. William S. Witham, of the Board of Trustees, donated to
the college the sum of $10,000 (which has increased to over
$185,000) the interest 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 to be used as a loan fund.

Information concerning these funds can be secured from the
president. The decision as to who will be accepted is vested en-
tirely in a committee of the Board of Trustees, to whom all appli-
cations will be referred.

STUDENT AID

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

Some student aid positions pay $100 per year. Dining hall
positions pay $225 per year. Students receiving the dining hall
positions must be willing to serve any student or professional
groups visiting the campus during the regular school term without
further remuneration.

THE LA GRANGE 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.
