The diploma pictured on the cover was issued to Mary F.
Steagall in July 1855. It is not the oldest diploma in posses-
sion of the college. We have one presented in 1850, written in
French. The one pictured is in Latin. The first LaGrange di-
plomas were issued to the class of 1846.

LA GRANGE COLLEGE BULLETIN

In this one hundred and twenty-fifth year of service LaGrange College pre-
sents the regular bulletin, 1955-1957. LaGrange College is a four year liberal
arts college. Its objective is Christian education for Christian living. Its pur-
pose is the development of social and mental poise for citizenship and the
faithful performance by the individual student of present duties in prepara-
tion 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

under act of August 24th, 1912.

Bulletin issued quarterly, March, June, September, December.

GENERAL INFORMATION

HISTORICAL SKETCH

LaGrange College has the longest history of any non-tax-supported institution
of higher education in Georgia, having been founded in 1831 as the LaGrange
Female Academy. Begun as a private school it was purchased for the North
Georgia Conference of" The Methodist Church in 1856, with the citizens of
LaGrange furnishing half of the purchase price. When it became a coeduca-
tional college in 1953, it dropped its distinction as one of the three oldest
Protestant schools for women in the United States, according to the records
of the Library of Congress. In its metamorphosis it became LaGrange Female
Institute (1847), LaGrange Female College (1851), and LaGrange College
(1934).

ACADEMIC STANDING

As a coeducational four-year liberal arts college, LaGrange is fully accredited
by the Southern Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and has mem-
bership in the Georgia Methodist Colleges Association, the Georgia Associa-
tion of Colleges, the National Association of Methodist Colleges, the American
Council on Education, and the American Assocation of Colleges. The Georgia
State Department of Education confers professional certificates upon La-
Grange graduates who meet requirements in the elementary or secondary
fields of education. Students holding a degree from LaGrange are admitted
to graduate schools throughout the nation and abroad without examination.

LOCATION

The college is located in a town of 29,000 population, in the heart of a textile
and agricultural area. Within the city limits are mills operated by the Calla-
way Mills Company, the Pepperel Manufacturing Company, and the West
Point Manufacturing Company. Two railroads and three bus lines serve the
city. Nearby are some of Georgia's loveliest scenic attractions. The fabled
Chattahoochee River furnishes the town's water supply. A forty-five minute
drive takes visitors to Warm Springs to see the Little White House and the
Georgia Warm Springs Foundation. Within thirty minutes one can easily reach
Pine Mountain and beautiful Ida Cason Gardens, the loveliest tourist attrac-
tion in Georgia with flower trails, beach, boating, swimming, fishing, golfing,
and dining.

Among the homes of LaGrange are many of modern design, but many also
of ante-bellum vintage. Several are mentioned in Medora Perkerson's "White
Columns of Georgia." They witnessed the drills of the only feminine military
company in existence during the War Between the States. This company was
known as the Nancy Harts.

The community was named LaGrange following a visit of General LaFayette
to Govenor Troup of Georgia in 1826. The General remarked to the Governor
that this section of the country looked more like his section of France than

(12)

Lagrange college bulletin 13

any part of the United States which he had visited. The county was named
for Governor Troup. The town was chartered as LaGrange in 1828 in honor
of the great French general who supported George Washington in the Revo-
lutionary War. LaGrange was the name of LaFayette's estate in France. A
charter for the founding of the school was granted by the state legislature in
1831, only three years after the town was established. The bill to charter the
school was introduced by Alexander H. Stephens.

The city is adorned by its marble public buildings, lovely churches, cultivated
parks, playing fountains, landscaped playgrounds, the stately Callaway
Tower, and the finest public school buildings in the state. With the exception
of the First Methodist Church, the oldest institution in the city is LaGrange
College.

RELIGIOUS LIFE

Students find opportunities for religious worship and service in a manner
afforded by few college communities. The Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian,
and Episcopal denominations have churches within a ten-minute walk of the
college. Within a radius of one mile are more than twenty-five churches of
many denominations. Students direct choirs, teach in church schools, sing in
choirs, and play the piano or organ in many of the churches. Others worship
regularly in the church of their choice and, in many instances, become affil-
iate members of the churches during their college years.

During the summers students serve their denominations on missionary teams
in the mountains, on caravan teams in the United States and in Cuba, at
Lake Junaluska in North Carolina, at Camp Glisson in Georgia, at "Y" Camps
as counselors, in Vacation Bible Schools, and at camps for underprivileged
children as directors and counselors.

The motivating spirit for this service is the religious program on the campus.
The dean of the chapel, Dr. Davis P. Melson, provides two religious programs
weekly, inviting fine speakers to address the student body and faculty. Chapel
attendance is compulsory.

The Student Christian Association sponsors two vesper programs each week
and a meditation period every night for men and women students. Attendance
is voluntary.

Local churches cooperate with campus leadership to promote denominational
interest through the Methodist Student Movement, the Baptist Student Union,
and the Westminster Fellowship.

The Christadelphians, students majoring in religion or religious education,
participate in projects of their own, such as presenting Christmas programs at
the Old Folks' Home and teaching classes in leadership training in certain
local churches.

The Ministerial Association is composed of students studying for the Christian
ministry in any denomination of their choice. They plan programs designed
to help them in their training and devotional life. A number of them serve
pastorates within travel distance of the college.
Special lecturers and noted preachers are brought to the campus throughout

14 Lagrange college bulletin

the year so that students may receive the highest inspiration that the lecture
platform and the pulpit can afford. These constitute a valid part of the edu-
cational program.

No student at LaGrange College is compelled to be religious, but no effort
on the part of student leadership or faculty and administrative control is
spared to give to the students every inducement to know Christ as the Saviour
and to live as a normal, wholesome Christian.

The high light of religious observance is Religious Emphasis Week when an
eminent preacher, chosen by a committee of students and administration, de-
livers six sermons to the students and faculty in three days. His services are
made available to the students for counseling.

SOCIAL LIFE

Recognizing that every well-balanced life demands both recognition and par-
ticipation, LaGrange College offers splendid opportunities for proper social
contacts. Fraternities and sororities are maintained on a local basis for three
reasons: (1) They are less expensive than national fraternities or sororities.
(2) Every student at LaGrange is offered a bid to join one. (3) The aim is
to develop social fellowship and social graces rather than social snobbery. The
prestige of the sororities lies in the fact that they are much older than many
nationals. The prestige of the fraternities lies in the loyalty and enthusiasm
manifested by the memberships. Most important is the fact that at LaGrange
every man and every woman belongs!

The social groups sponsor dances, week-end parties, hamburger roasts, hay-
rides, beach parties at the Ida Cason Gardens, alumni parties, and more
parties. On Field Day they fight in athletic competition for trophies.
As a part of social life the women students are given instruction in social
behavior during the freshman year. Thirty minutes every Monday morning
is given to this program of personality development. During the year many
receptions and teas take place in the college parlors, in the President's Home,
and on the lawn. On Thursday evenings a seated meal is served in the college
cafeteria, a major feature being good manners to the accompaniment of fine
music rendered by students and faculty.

To insure that every student receives proper recognition from the beginning
of his college life the Student Christian Association assigns a Big Sister to
every new woman student and a Big Brother to every new male student. No
attempt is made to work out a brother-sister relationship. Nature takes care
of that.

Breaches in conduct are handled, for the most part, by Student Government.
The college authorities give full support to the actions of the Student Council.
Dating of women students either by men students or other friends requires
that all dates shall be "signed out" in the office of the Dean of Women.
Servicemen from Fort Benning may visit women students on the campus.
They may not leave the campus with a woman student until a letter of recom-
mendation has been received from the serviceman's home pastor and a letter
of permission from the woman student's parents. To date other men who are

Lagrange college bulletin 15

not LaGrange College students a woman student needs only her parents'
permission. By the "sign-out" system the college seeks to know the where-
abouts of all students at anytime so that they may be notified in cases of
family emergency.

CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES

People enjoy fine things if they are properly interpreted and if they can see
and hear them. On that premise LaGrange students are given an opportunity
to hear fine music, both vocal and instrumental. They see good art. They enjoy
the best in dramatic presentations. Moreover, if they are talented, they have
opportunity to participate in music programs, to produce original art, and to
take part in drama productions.

Artists, in all of the fields within the division of fine arts, are brought to the
community and to the campus annually. Student performances also are of the
highest quality.

Art exhibits from other schools are shown in the College Gallery. The students
exhibit their work at LaGrange and elsewhere.

The Choralaires (the Glee Club) make an annual tour. The forty singers
develop a strong love of good music and enjoy the thrill of harmonious par-
ticipation. LaGrange singers were the first Glee Club to sing on "The Meth-
odist Hour," heard over 250 American radio stations and by Armed Forces
Radio around the world. They sang to an audience of 30,000 people in the
Orange Bowl in Miami.

The Curtain Raisers present five or six major productions a year. The drama
department has the distinction of putting more graduates on the professional
The Fine Arts Festival, annual observance by the division, emphasizes the
stage than any school in Georgia. Plays are presented by invitation to a num-
ber of Georgia and Alabama communities,
major art forms during National Music Week.

The lecture high light of the year is the Arthur H. Thompson Lecture Series
that brings to the campus a noted scholar to address the college and the com-
munity on the interrelationship of his field of learning and religion. Other
lecturers are heard at Convocation, chapel programs, Religious Emphasis
Week, and Commencement.

PERSONNEL SERVICE

LaGrange students are respected as persons from the time they are contacted

by a college representative until they die. Every contact is engaged in on a

basis of courtesy and good will.

Upon entering school the student is given tests to determine I. Q. and aptitude.

All such information is kept strictly confidential and used for guidance and

counseling.

Students select their courses under the supervision of a faculty adviser. The

college Dean is always willing to give professional advice in case of more

difficult problems. Care is taken to see that a student loses no credit by trans-

16 Lagrange college bulletin

f erring to other schools, provided the student gives notice of such intentions
before selecting courses at LaGrange. Special attention is given to students
M^ho plan to transfer to professional schools.

The departmental heads offer assistance where needed in securing employ-
ment for graduates. Placement has afforded no serious difficulty. Graduates
have made names for themselves in such diverse areas as foreign consular
service, medicine, missions, teaching, music, ministry, magazine editorship,
medical technology, stage, secretarial work, art, all branches of military bus-
iness, college presidency, nuclear physics, insurance, etc. Small colleges pro-
duce a disproportionately large amount of leadership for the local community
and the nation because of the personal attention given to the students by well-
chosen instructors.

LaGrange provides a counseling and guidance service to all students, directing
them into the fields for which they are best suited.

In personal matters students may secure the ready counseling service of the
residence counselors, the Dean of Women, the college Dean, or the President.
Students find members of the faculty and staff also ready to assist in personal
affairs on a confidential basis.

PHILOSOPHY OF LAGRANGE COLLEGE*

The purpose of LaGrange College is to foster the full development of the stu-
dents as individuals and as members of society. The aim of Christian education
is to provide for growth intellectual, physical, emotional, social, and spiritual.
Therefore the program should be flexible enough to prepare each student ac-
cording to the individual interests, needs, and capacities for a life of maximum
usefulness and service to society. The curriculum and program should be broad
enough to provide opportunities for the students who wish to do graduate
work, or transfer credits, and for the students who wish to go to work im-
mediately after graduation. Fundamentals which are necessary for success in
modern society should be provided for all.

The curriculum and program should provide for an appreciation of our na-
tional heritage. We should make an attempt to retain the best cultural heritage
of civilization and build on that heritage. At the same time the curriculum and
program should provide for an appreciation of world-wide conditions and make
an effort to contribute toward intemational-mindedness.

The administration and faculty seek to guide students in solving their prob-
lems, in maning adjustments, and in selecting their life's work. The student's
welfare is of paramount importance and the teacher-pupil relationship of
prime significance. Training is given in the development of initiative, self-
confidence, and dependability. The program seeks to instill within the indi-
vidual courtesy, honesty, and respect for the rights of others, so that the stu-
dents will be able to take their places as responsible members of a society,
within the framework of the home and community, in civic, religious, social,
and business or professional activities.

OBJECTIVES

The objectives of LaGrange College as outlined through the curriculum and
campus program are to assist the students in adjusting themselves to the
increasing responsibilities of expanding activities and to inspire in them a
desire to become builders of a better society. In order to fulfill these objectives
the college provides for the students the opportunity to get

1. A knowledge of themselves sufficient to enable them to care for their
physical, mental, and spiritual welfare.

2. A sufficient mastery of spoken and written English to express them-
selves intelligibly and accurately, aided by the acquisition of at least one
foreign language.

3. A sound historical and philosophical foundation for a sincere Christian
faith and life.

After weeks of serious study by a special faculty committee, this statemen of philosophy
was adopted by the administration and faculty on February 6, 1953.

18 Lagrange college bulletin

4. Information and training to make them efficient members of the home
and society.

5. An appreciation of the beautiful and the good in literature, music, art,
and drama.

6. An acquaintance with the most important social, economic, political, and
religious forces which have operated in the past to make society what it
is today, and an acquaintance with the forces which are operating most
strongly today to make the society of tomorrow.

7. An insight into the facts and theories of science which have most vitally
affected man's thought and action.

8. Professional and business training. The curriculum is designed to in-
crease the knowledge, culture, and Christian sociality of the students,
at the same time fitting them for gainful and contributive living.

9. A satisfactory acquaintance with and proficiency in at least one major
interest.

10. A keen interest in community activities.

A serious attitude toward life is stressed. There is a time to study, a time to
play, a time to work, and a time to worship. Proper stewardship of life pro-
vides ample time for the balanced emphasis upon these duties. Individual
growth is achieved through imaginative direction of talents. Proper counseling
enables students to choose both a program of studies and extra-curricular ac-
tivities for maximum development of abilities and talents. Sound learning is
requisite for any serious program of higher education. Study, reading, writing,
and individual research supplement our program of education in the classroom.

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

The LaGrange College Alumni Association was organized to keep the alumni
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
alumni 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 alumni have adopted the "Dix schedule" of class reunions. In 1956 the
following classes will meet: 1882, 1883, 1884, 1885, 1901, 1902, 1903, 1904, 1920,
1921, 1922, 1923, 1939, 1940, 1941, 1942; and in 1957 these classes will meet:
1886, 1887, 1888, 1889, 1905, 1906, 1907, 1908, 1924, 1925, 1926, 1927, 1943,
1944, 1945, 1946.

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

BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION AND ECONOMICS

Professor Gordman
Associate Professor Dilley
Assistant Professor Robenettb

The Department of Business Administration and Economics offers courses of
instruction leading to the bachelor's degree in business administration and
in economics and to the two years' certificate in secretarial science.

The principal objective of the department is to train young men and women
for responsible positions in the business world. Many departmental majors,
however, will enter government service or the teaching profession or take
graduate work. Other majors in the department will be chiefly interested in
obtaining a knowledge and appreciation of the working of the modern economic
society and an understanding of their roles in it as responsible citizens.

To implement these instructional objectives, the department will cooperate
closely with the business community of the area, wherever possible making
actual business operations and specific business problems a workshop for the
classroom. The resulting familiarization of the students with a cross-section
of the business life of the Southeast will enable them to make a maximum
contribution to its future economic development.

Apart from its instructional aims, the Department of Business Administration
and Economics seeks to become a service department to all other departments
of the college. It seeks also to serve directly, through the provision of its
facilities, the armed services, banking, and other sectors of the whole com-
munity.

MUSIC

The Music Section is one of three sections which constitute the Depart-
ment of Fine Arts. It prepares students for professional work in the
various areas of applied music and in the teaching of music in public
schools.

EQUIPMENT

The Music Section occupies a portion of the Samuel C. Dobbs Building.
This includes several well-equipped studios, practice rooms, a rehearsal
room, and an attractive auditorium for recital use.

The college owns an adequate amount of equipment for use in teaching,
practice, and other music activity. There are a goodly number of grand
pianos, including two very fine concert pianos on the stage of the audi-
torium, and many upright pianos. The auditorium houses a three-manual
Morton pipe organ. In addition to this organ there is a Wurlitzer organ
for practice purposes.

Several phonographs and a tape recorder are also included in the equip-
ment.

LIBRARY

The college library includes an impressive number of books in all areas
of music. There is excellent basic material in the history of music,
theory of music, music of the church, conducting, music education,
biographies of the great composers, as well as the usual reference works
such as music dictionaries and encyclopedias.

A fine collection of phonograph records of all the principal periods of
music history is available, and the library includes also a collection of
musical scores and a number of music magazines.

MUSICAL ORGANIZATIONS

The mixed chorus, known as the Choralaires, is open to qualified students
in all departments of the college. Membership in the group is obtained
by audition. Candidates for the Bachelor of Arts degree whose major
field of concentration is music are required to earn a certain amount of
credit in chorus participation as indicated in their major curriculum
schedule. To obtain credit, however, attendance at rehearsals and public
performances must be regular.

It is an objective of this musical organization to provide careful train-
ing in performances of both sacred and secular choral works of a high
caliber. Personality development through the social values inherent in
group music activity is a definite advantage of participation in this
group.

Concert appearances both on the campus and on tour are a usual part
of the annual schedules of LaGrange College choral groups.
Several smaller vocal groups play an important part in the musical life
of both the college and the surrounding territory. These include a mixed
double quartet and a ladies' double sextet.

Plans for a college orchestra are also being developed, so that this or-
ganization will be a reality in the near future.

The courses the student takes in applied music must be in one instru-
ment or voice. An exception will be made in the instance of voice students
who are deficient in piano. In the event a student, whose major applied
music activity is voice, has not gained a reasonable facility in piano
before entering college, he will be required to earn at least four
hours credit in piano. The head of the department will establish, by
audition, when the student enters college, whether he has a sufficient
background of piano study. An adequate background in this area will
normally be considered to be the ability to play works corresponding in
difficulty to the Little Preludes Bach, Sonatinas Clementi, Album for

This Department offers a major in each of the following fields: Psy-
chology, Social Science, including Economics, Sociology and Government,
and a combination of History and Social Science. Careful attention is
given to training for both the cultural and service values.
A great deal of attention is given to training of students for the teach-
ing profession. Preparation for teaching in Georgia, since most of our
graduates who teach offer their services in this state, is given major
emphasis but the department keeps abreast of variations that may arise
in case our graduates contemplate working in another state.
The Social Science Department is keenly aware of the class relationship
to that of our other departments. Suggestions and recommendations are
encouraged, with the end in view that this will greatly assist in grad-
uating students who will be in better position to enjoy life more and
render better service.

REFUNDS

In connection with refunds, the College has adopted a policy which is con-
sistent with good business standards. Parents and students should realize that
the finances of the institution are planned on the basis of anticipated income
for an academic year. Without such basis the educational services of the in-
stitution cannot be effectively developed. In this connection, therefore, it is
assumed that a student engaging a room in a college residence is assuming
financial responsibility for the room for the full academic year.

86 Lagrange college bulletin

In connection with tuition, the fee which is paid is allotted to appropriate
expenses of the institution on the basis of the use of the tuition fee for the
academic year. With this anticipation in mind the program of the institution
can be developed on a sound business basis, which is protective to its students.
No refund of tuition or fee is allowed a student withdrawing after mid-
semester.

If the withdrawal occurs before mid-semester, tuition will be charged from
the beginning of the semester to the date of notice of withdrawal, at the rate
of $15.00 per week plus one-half of course or laboratory fee. The minimum
net charge at withdrawal is $30.00.

No refund of the General Fee is allowable.

Rebates for meals will be made on the established weekly rates for students
not attending a full semester.

Rebates on room rent will not be made after four weeks following the official
opening of the residence halls for either the first semester or the second
semester. Up to four weeks in residence a student will be charged on the basis
of $5.00 per week.

There will be no refunds on private lessons in music or voice which are
dropped later than one week after beginning of semester, unless judged an
emergency by the instructor.

No reduction of tuition will be allov/ed a student dropping one or more
courses four weeks after classes begin.

NOTES REGARDING EXPENSES

All checks should be made payable to LaGrange College. All dues must be
settled in cash before students can receive diploma or transcript of credits.
If an account becomes delinquent the student will not be permitted to continue
class work. Students are entitled to a first transcript of their records free of
charge. For other transcripts a fee of $1.00 will be charged.
The College will be closed Thanksgiving, Christmas and Spring holidays.

DISCOUNTS AND SCHOLARSHIPS

A discount of $125.00 will be made to ministerial students and to ministers
regularly engaged in their calling who enter their sons or daughters as
boarding students. All "specials" are charged at the regular rates.

THE LA GRANGE COLLEGE STUDENT'S 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.
