BULLETIN

In this one hundred and twenty-first year of service LaGrange
College presents the annual catalog, 1951-1952. LaGrange College
is a four year liberal arts college. Its objective is Christian educa-
tion for Christian living. Its purpose is the development of social
and mental poise for citizenship and the faithful performance by
the individual student of present duties in preparation for future
service in home, Church, community, and State.

Prevailing conditions add emphasis to the significance of such
an educational program designed to prepare students to live
worthily in such a day as this, and to transmit to succeeding
generations of college men and women the priceless heritage of
Christian culture.

Entered as second class matter at the Post Office at LaGrange, Georgia

LaGrange College

In the year 1831 the LaGrange Female Academy was chartered
by the Georgia Legislature. It became a college in 1851, and today
stands among the three oldest Protestant colleges for women in the
United States, according to the records of the Library of Congress.
It is a four year liberal arts college, accredited by the Southern As-
sociation of Colleges and Secondary Schools and endorsed by The
Methodist Senate, with membership in the Georgia Association of
Colleges, the Association of A.merican Colleges, the American Council
on Education, and the National Association of Methodist Colleges.
The Georgia State Department of Education offers professional
certificates to students meeting the qualifications for teaching in ele-
mentary and high schools.

The purpose of LaGrange College is to provide opportunities for
a sound undergraduate education in several of the major fields of
study under the competent direction of trained scholars in a Christian
environment. Sponsored by The Methodist Church, the college is
spiritual in nature, but non-sectarian in its program. The Faculty
and Board of Trustees represent several of the major Protestant
denominations.

Men are admitted to the classes and participate fully in the pro-
gram of the student body.

Because of their faith in the quality of education at LaGrange and
because of their conviction that this school makes a contribution to
the lives of students that the secular schools cannot make, the
trustees have enterprised a program which amounts to a $325 scholar-
ship for every boarding student that enrolls. The present cost of
educating a student at LaGrange is $1125 per year. The trustees,
through an endowment program, provide $325 and ask the students
to furnish $800 each on their cost of education a year.

The size of the student body and the ratio of faculty to students
make it possible for the faculty and administration to know all of
the students well. A testing program reveals the fitness of the in-
dividual student and enables the college to offer professional counsel-
ling and advice. A balanced curriculum and schedule of activities
afford all students a maximum opportunity for the development of
their powers.

RELIGION

The religious life of the students demands serious attention. Out-
standing ministers are brought to the campus for chapel addresses and
sermons. In the fall a Religion-in-Life Week is observed, at which
time a noted scholar is invited to lecture on the place of religion in

(11)

12 LaGrange College

his field of learning, and the contribution of his specialty to religion.
In the spring a Religious Emphasis Week is scheduled, with a noted
preacher asked to preach sermons of an evangelistic nature. In each
case the guests are made available to the students for personal counsel-
ling. All students study the Bible. Chapel attendance is compulsory
three times a week.

For the first four week-ends of the fall semester students are re-
quired to remain at LaGrange College so that they may attend Sun-
day schools and churches of their choice and come to feel at home in
the local churches. The local ministers and their staffs give earnest
attention to the spiritual needs of the students.

The Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian churches have active
student organizations for men and women. The YWCA is strong
and promotes a vital program.

SOCIAL LIFE

There are four sororities on the campus, with every girl invited to
join one of them. They are local sororities, but are older than many
nationals. They keep their local status for two main reasons. They
are quite inexpensive to belong to, and they set as their aim the
development of social graces rather than social superiority. All
women's athletic contests are scheduled through the sororities. The
sororities sponsor parties and house parties. There are four major
dances a year, with escorts invited from Emory, Georgia Tech, Uni-
versity of Georgia, University of Alabama and Auburn.

The men students are organized and promote an athletic program
and social events. They enjoy their own musical organization, pre-
senting programs to the student body and to service clubs by invita-
tion. They take a major part in the production of drama, which is
on a premium level.

CULTURE

Music occupies a strong position. The faculty is competent. The
instruments are unusually fine. There is a Wurlitzer electric organ
for practice, and a very large Morton theatre organ for recitals. The
concert pianos are new, and all practice pianos are good. The college
participates in the Community Concert Series, which brings the finest
artists to the city. These are popular with the students. Student
recitals also give ample opportunity for the development of poise in
vocal or instrumental music.

Two large women's choruses and one men's chorus give opportunity
for singing in harmony. The Chapel Choir, as the glee club is called,
makes one long annual tour. The Harmonettes and the men's group

LaGrange College 13

sing on occasions by appointment. The Emory-at-Oxford Glee Club
and the LaGrange Chapel Choir sing jointly at Oxford and at La-
Grange in great concerts, offering such oratorios as The Messiah and
Elijah.

The Art Department presents exhibits in its modern gallery. Show-
ings are exchanged with other schools. Professional exhibits are
offered to the student body and to the community. The department
boasts the fact that Lamar Dodd, one of America's top modern
artists, is a graduate of LaGrange College.

Drama is a popular feature and taken seriously. Five full-length
plays are given annually. Four of the 195 1 graduates went on to the
professional stage. Radio training is a part of the Speech Department's
work, with emphasis on script writing, sound effects, production, and
announcing.

SCIENCE

The science laboratories (physics, biology, and chemistry) are
furnished with the latest and finest equipment. All students are
given an opportunity to study one or more of the natural sciences.

Secretarial science courses are presented with the academic courses
in order to develop secretaries rather than stenographers. Graduates
in this field are in constant demand.

Home Economics is available with a major offered, but without
the professional degree. The department is primarily for students in-
terested in clothing construction, foods, and homemaking.

TEACHING

The State Department of Education offers professional certif-
icates to LaGrange students meeting our requirements to teach in
Elementary Education and in the high schools in the Social Studies,
English, Foreign Languages, and General Science. LaGrange grad-
uates have never found it difficult to secure satisfactory employment
as teachers.

ATHLETICS

The athletic program is for all students. All are required to
participate in classes, games, and events that develop skills for the
strengthening of the body, for proper posture, and for the happy use
of leisure time. Softball, tennis, badminton, swimming, horseshoes,
table tennis, tumbling, volley ball and archery are among the most
popular sports.

14 LaGrange College

THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM

A study of the courses offered will reveal a strong curriculum.
Seventeen majors are offered. The fine arts sciences, humanities, social
sciences, and religion make up a fine program of study. Students are
expected to spend approximately two hours in study for every hour
they spend in the classroom. Even so, with a proper budgeting of
time, there is plenty of time for extra-curricular activities.

LaGrange College professors are noted for their willingness to
aid any earnest student outside of the classroom. Our interest is in
developing self-direction and self-discipline. Every student is given
opportunity for the development of his powers. The student must do
his part.

The college is Christian in all aspects of its life. Qualified students
are welcome who recognize this fact.

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 con-
ferred on a student. Such awards are made on Honors Day,
at which time a distinguished speaker is the guest of the college.

ADMISSION OF STUDENTS

Students may be admitted by certificate or by
examination.

Graduates of the accredited high schools are
admitted without examination.

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 vacation. Candi-
dates will find it much easier to attend to this before their schools
close for the summer.

LaGrange College 21

ALUMNAE 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. There is a permanent Alumnae office on the campus,
and a full-time secretary is employed to carry on the work of the
Association.

The annual reunion is held during Commencement each year, and
all are warmly invited to return to the college for that meeting. In
order that special reunions may be arranged for those classes who
were associated in college, our alumnae have adopted the "Dix
schedule" of class reunions. In 1952 the following groups of classes
are scheduled to meet in reunion: 1885, 1886, 1887, 1888, 1904,
1905, 1906, 1907, 1923, 1924, 1925, 1926, 1942, 1943, 1944, 1945.
In 1953 the following classes will meet: 1889, 1890, 1891, 1892,
1908, 1909, 1910, 191 1, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1946, 1947, 1948,
1949; and in 1954 these classes will meet: 1893, 1894, 1895, 1896,
1912, 1913, 1914, 1915, 1931, 1932, 1933, 1934, 1950, 1951, 1952,
1953.

Every person who has attended the college for any length of time
is eligible for membership in the Alumnae Association. There are no
Alumnae dues, but each Alumna is requested to contribute annually
to the Alumnae Fund. A monthly bulletin will be sent to each
Alumna who contributes a dollar or more.

It is earnestly desired that Alumnae chapters be formed in localities
where a sufficient number of graduates and former students live.

All changes of address, marriages, births, and deaths should be
reported directly to the Alumnae office.

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 development of special interests and abilities : such
clubs as the Camera 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 re-
ligious 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 Student Movement,
and the Westminster Fellowship are active on the 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 department.
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 pro-
motes the spirit of social life of the campus.

On arrival at the college, the student is given her registra-
tion 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 op-
erated 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 students 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 wel-

58 LaGrange College

corned at the college for week-ends, but must not be invited
until their entertainment is arranged 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.

is deducted from the payment required on entrance in September. If
the reservation is cancelled prior to July 15, this deposit will be re-

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 advisable. A young wom-
an 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 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 ar-
rangements are made.

Charges for special courses are made on a semester basis and not
on a "per lesson" basis. No refund of tuition and fees is allowed a
student withdrawing after mid-semester.

Students who withdraw before mid-semester will be charged tuition
from opening date to the date of notice of withdrawal at the rate of
$10.00 per week plus one-half of any laboratory fee.

Dormitory residents withdrawing before mid-semester are charged
one-half total semester room rent. Refund on meals will be made on
a monthly basis. The semester rate for meals has been adjusted to
allow for the normal number of meals missed and is therefore not
subject to refunds for meals missed by students for personal or bus-
iness reasons.

Students taking 7 hours or less are expected to pay a library fee
of $5.00.

Studio students are not expected to pay an activity or library fee.

Studio students' fees are to be paid in advance at the beginning of
each semester.

All dues must be settled in cash before students can receive diplomas
or transcripts 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.
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 re-
main 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 grad-
uates of accredited high schools, and fifty dollars to Beta Club mem-
bers.

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 financial
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 scholar-
ship aid.

The Northen Scholarship Fund

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

The National Methodist Scholarship

Three National Methodist Scholarships are provided annually
which pay the total tuition ($370) fees. Selection of recipients is

LaGrange College 61

made by the President and Dean from Methodist students who are
in the top 15% of their high school or college classes. Students must
retain their high scholastic standing in order to keep the scholarship
for more than one year. Selection is made on the basis of character,
active interest in the Church, promise of useful service, and scholar-
ship.

LOANS

Students may be able to borrow from 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 the end of the year
in which it was used.

Mr. William S. Witham, 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 presi-
dent. 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

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 ;
these students are expected to remain on the campus through Gradua-
tion Day.

MEMORIAL BOOK COLLECTIONS

The Hubert T. Quillian Book Collection was established by the
LaGrange Rotary Club with a $1,000 purchase of new volumes. The
fund has risen to above $2,000 in book purchases in memory of the
late President of LaGrange College.

The Bannister R. Bray Memorial Book Collection was established
by the Reverend Vivian L. Bray in memory of his father. Over a
period of years the collection has grown, with further provision being
made for its continuance in the will of the Reverend Mr. Bray.

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.
