GENERAL
INFORMATION
HISTORICAL SKETCH
LaGrange College, founded in 1831 as the LaGrange Female Academy, has
the longest history of all non-tax-supported institutions of higher education in
Georgia. 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. Until it became a coeducational college
in 1953, it was one of the three oldest Protestant schools for women in the Unit-
ed States. In its metamorphosis it became LaGrange Female Institute (1847),
LaGrange Female College (1851), and LaGrange College (1934).
LOCATION
The College is located in LaGrange, a town of 25,000 in Troup County, which
is twelfth in population in Georgia. LaGrange is located in West Central Geor-
gia, approximately seventy miles southwest of Atlanta and fifty miles northeast
of Columbus. Located in the heart of a textile area, LaGrange has a total trad-
ing population of 169,000. Within the city limits are operations of the Callaway
Mills Company, the International Latex Corporation, Ethyl VisQueen Corpora-
tion, and West Point-Pepperell Incorporated. Two railroads and a bus line
serve the city. Nearby are some of Georgia's finest scenic attractions. The
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
facilities of the Warm Springs Foundation. Within thirty minutes one can easily
reach Pine Mountain and beautiful Callaway Gardens, the lovliest tourist at-
traction in Georgia, with flower trails, beach, boating, skiing, swimming, fish-
ing, golfing, and dining.
The community was named LaGrange following a visit of General LaFayette to
Governor 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 any
other part of the United States which he had visited. LaGrange was the name of
LaFayette's estate in France. 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 Revolutionary War. A charter for
the founding of the school was granted by the State legislature in 1831, only
three years after the town was established. With the exception of the First Meth-
odist Church, the oldest institution in the city is LaGrange College.
ACADEMIC STANDING
As a coeducational four-year liberal arts college, LaGrange College is fully
accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, approved by
the Methodist University Senate, and has membership in the Association of
American Colleges, the American Council on Education, the National Associ-
ation of Methodist Colleges, the Georgia Association of Colleges, the Georgia
Association of Methodist Colleges, the American Alumni Council, and the
Georgia Foundation for Independent Colleges. The Georgia State Board of
Education, which confers professional certificates upon college graduates meet-
ing requirements in elementary or secondary education, in 1963 gave five-year
(highest) approval to the professional education program of LaGrange College.
ATHLETICS
The College is a member of the Georgia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference and
of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics. The G. I. A. C. sponsors
intercollegiate competition in basketball, baseball, tennis, golf, cross-country,
track, volleyball, and bowling. The College has teams in basketball, tennis,
and track. The College has a program of intramural sports in which all students
are encouraged to participate.
RELIGIOUS LIFE
Students find opportunities for religious worship and service in a manner af-
forded by few college communities. The Baptist, Catholic, Church of Christ,
Episcopal, Methodist, and Presbyterian 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 and organ in many of the
churches. Others worship regularly in the church of their choice and, in many
instances, become affiliate members of the churches during their college years,
although church attendance is not compulsory.
Local churches cooperate with campus leadership to promote denominational
interest.
Many LaGrange College students serve churches during the summer by as-
sisting in vacation church schools and young people's organizations.
Important in the religious life on the campus are the required weekly assembly
programs under the direction of the Department of Religion. Speakers from
all walks of life are invited to speak to students and faculty. The Inter-Faith
Council sponsors Sunday vesper programs each week.
Important events in the life of the campus are the Arthur H. Thompson Religion-
in-Life Lectures and Religious Emphasis Week. The Arthur H. Thompson Lecture
Series brings to the campus scholars who present the interrelationship of re-
8
ligion and other fields of knowledge. Religious Emphasis Week is conducted
by a minister.
Traditionally, prior to graduation, the senior class participates in a special com-
munion service.
SOCIAL LIFE
Realizing that every well balanced life demands both recognition and partici-
pation, LaGrange College offers opportunities for many social contacts. Fra-
ternities and sororities are maintained on a local basis with every student hav-
ing an opportunity to join a sorority or fraternity. The social life of the campus
is conducted largely by the fraternities and sororities. These are regulated by
the Pan-Hellenic Council, composed of representative membership and faculty
advisers.
CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES
In order that cultural activities may be a part of their daily lives, LaGrange
College students are given an opportunity to hear fine music, both vocal and
instrumental, to see good art, and to enjoy the best in dramatic presentations
and lectures. Moreover, they have the opportunity to participate in music pro-
grams, to produce original art, and to take part in dramatic productions.
Those interested in the theatre will enjoy the Summer Theatre Laboratory con-
ducted by the Speech and Drama Department. Students enrolled in this course
produce comedies in repertory at Callaway Gardens.
Visiting artists and lecturers are brought to the community annually. The Di-
vision of Fine Arts each year sponsors programs and activities focusing atten-
tion on drama, music, and visual arts. LaGrange College student performances
also are of such quality that the students perform both in LaGrange and in
other communities. The students may avail themsevles of cultural opportunities
in Atlanta and Columbus.
BUILDINGS AND PHYSICAL FACILITIES
The LaGrange College campus is located on U. S. Highway 29, five blocks west
of the LaGrange City Square. The campus lies between Vernon and Broad
Streets and includes fourteen buildings.
Smith Building is the most historic building on the LaGrange College campus.
The main portion of this building was erected in 1842. An addition was con-
structed in 1887. Located on the ground floor of Smith is the Student Center,
the College Book Store, offices for student organizations and publications, and
the post office. The main floor of Smith provides space for some administrative
offices, formal parlors, residence counselor's suite, and the infirmary. Dormitory
facilities for 69 students comprise the second floor of Smith.
Dobbs Building, erected in 1851 and recently remodeled, is a multi-purpose
building. Dobbs consists of an auditorium with a seating capacity of 500 and
with a three-manual Mohler pipe organ, science laboratoriesand lecture rooms,
classrooms, studios for the Music and Speech Departments, practice rooms, and
a workshop for the Drama Department.
Hawkes Building accommodates 77 students and a residence counselor. The
ground floor houses the Art Department and gallery. This structure was com-
pleted in 1910 and was remodeled in 1951 and 1959.
The Warren Candler Cottage, built in 1928, houses selected senior women.
Pitts Hall, completed in 1941, houses 52 students and a residence counselor.
A student lounge is located on the first floor.
The Hubert T. Quillian Building was built in 1949. It houses offices of the
President, Academic Dean, Registrar, Business Manager, and Director of Ad-
missions.
The William H. Turner, Jr., Hall, built in 1958, provides modern dormitory ac-
commodations for 88 students and a residence counselor.
A second dormitory for men, known as the Broad Street dormitory and accom-
modating 102 students and a residence counselor, was opened for use in 1962.
Manget Building, constructed in 1959 and remodeled and air-conditioned in
1966, contains faculty offices and classrooms.
The Dining Hall, opened in 1962, is completely modern and air-conditioned.
This building has facilities for serving 500 students as well as dining space
for faculty and staff and for private banquets.
The William and Evelyn Banks Library, completed in April, 1963, is a three-
story, brick, air-conditioned building, functionally designed to provide up-to-
date library services. Holdings consist of approximately 35,000 volumes of
books and bound periodicals, 1,500 phonograph records, 250 current periodi-
cals, and 195 reels of microfilm. New library facilities include many individual
study tables, six typing carrels, six faculty carrels, a seminar and listening
room, a smoking room, a group study room, a special collections room, and a
microfilm room.
The Gymnasium, completed in 1959, is modern in every respect. It has ample
facilities for physical education and indoor athletics. An air-conditioned recrea-
tion room and kitchen facilities permit additional use of this building for ban-
quets, other social functions, and meetings.
10
The Chapel, a beautiful air-conditioned sanctuary constructed in 1964-65, is
the gift of the Callaway Foundation, Inc. The memorial windows and brick
were part of the former sanctuary of the First Methodist Church of LaGrange.
It provides an atmosphere conducive to meditation and worship.
The Laundry Building is convenient to all dormitories. Coin-operated washing
machines and dryers are provided for the convenience of the students.
ORIENTATION AND COUNSELING
All new students are introduced to LaGrange College through an orientation
program which takes place at the beginning of each quarter. The orientation
program is designed to acquaint the new students with various phases of the
life of the College, including traditions, procedures, and regulations. It is be-
lieved that all students will profit from a proper introduction to the oppor-
tunities and responsibilities of college life. Throughout their residence at La-
Grange College, students may secure ready counseling service in personal
matters from faculty advisers, the residence counselors, Dean of Students,
Academic Dean, or the President.
STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY
Responsibility for maintenance of high standards and honorable conduct in
academic matters and social activities is entrusted to students in cooperation
with the faculty and administration of the College.
LaGrange College students are expected at all times to conduct themselves
as ladies and gentlemen in their actions, manners, and dress so as to reflect
the high standards and ideals of the College. To this end each student, upon
enrollment at LaGrange College, signs the following pledge:
In recognition of the obligations and privileges of membership in the
student body of LaGrange College, I hereby agree to obey all rules
and regulations of the College; to respect and to cooperate with its con-
stituted authorities; to conduct myself honorably; and at all times to live
in such a manner as to reflect credit upon myself, my family, and the
College. I realize that failure to comply with this pledge subjects me to
disciplinary action.
A student whose conduct indicates that he or she is not in sympathy with the
ideals and standards of the College or who seems unable to profit from its
program may be asked to withdraw. In such cases the judgment of the ad-
ministrative officers is sufficient.
11
STUDENT GOVERNMENT
Matters pertaining to the Student Government and student affairs are under
the general direction of the Dean of Students and the Student Affairs Commit-
tee. Each LaGrange College student participates in the election of student of-
ficers. The Student Government Association has three branches. An executive
council, under the direction of officers elected by campus-wide balloting, co-
ordinates and regulates all student activities on the campus. A legislative coun-
cil makes the rules which regulate the democratic living of LaGrange College
students. The judicial council is responsible for tryingcases involving dishonesty
and serious misbehavior.
LaGrange College has high standards of conduct. Drinking, lying, cheating,
stealing, and sexual misconduct are not countenanced. In offenses involving
these issues the Judicial Council of the Student Government Association shall
determine involvement; the Judicial Council's recommendations on the above
issues are, in all instances, referred to the President of the College for review.
The President, who has final responsibility in the dismissal of students, shall
concur in, revise, or reverse the recommendations of the Judicial Council.
When there are infractions of standards of integrity in the academic area,
the Academic Dean has authority in dismissal.
The possession or consumption of any form of alcoholic beverage on the La-
Grange College campus or at any function sponsored by any college organi-
zation is forbidden. Any evidence of drinking or misbehavior on the campus
or while under the jurisdiction of the college which is traceable to drinking,
wherever indulged in, will subject a student to disciplinary action.

PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION
AT LAGRANGE COLLEGE
Recognizing the fact that students must become citizens in a dynamic society,
the faculty of LaGrange College attempts to remain adaptable and to meet
the needs of varied interests and abilities. We understand the impossibility of
the permanently ideal college curriculum, and we constantly strive to revise
our procedures in accordance with the principles upon which our institution
was founded.
Since the days when our charter was granted, emphasis has been placed upon
the liberal arts. In our attempts to advance in the liberal arts tradition, we
have divided our endeavors into five distinct fields: fine arts, humanities,
science and mathematics, social science, and education. We believe that these
major fields provide a proper balance between those disciplines which broad-
en aesthetic appreciation and those which help mankind to make technical ad-
vancement.
Since every endeavor is carried out within a philosophical framework, our
educational task is pursued from the orientation of the Christian faith. It is our
purpose to enable the student to understand more deeply the basic principles
of Christianity, both as a cultural force integral to the history of the Western
World, and as a community of faith with which he may personally identify
himself and in which he may find order, meaning, and direction for his own
life.
We realize that the educational process is never complete and that we, as
teachers, can do little more than to open the doors for the rich fulfillment that
comes about through a lifetime of continuing search for truth. We strive to
give the necessary inspiration so that our students may have genuine respect
and desire for this knowledge which makes education a lifelong process.
In order to fulfill our purpose, the college provides the opportunity for the
students to strive for the following accomplishments:
1 . An acquaintance with the best of our intellectual and cultural heritage so
that they may appropriate these values and relate them to their own
experience.
2. Mastery of spoken and written English so that they will be able to express
themselves intelligibly and accurately.
3. A sound historical and philosophical foundation for a Christian faith which
is tested and not blindly accepted.
4. An appreciation of literature, music, art, and drama.
5. 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.
6. An acquaintance with the facts and theories of science which are most
vitally affecting man's thought and action.
7. A knowledge of techniques for acquiring technical information and skills
so that the students may function productively in the society of which they
are a part.
8. A positive attitude toward athletic activities so that they may properly
care for their physical development.
9. Proficiency in at least one academic discipline.

titude Test (SAT) administered by the College Entrance Examination Board. A
candidate may arrange to take this test by consulting his high school principal
or counselor or by writing directly to the Educational Testing Service, Box
592, Princeton, New Jersey, for a Bulletin of Information and a registration
blank. Candidates for admission to LaGrange College should, if possible, take
the SAT in December or January and request that the test results be sent to
LaGrange College. Other tests administered by Educational Testing Service are
recommended. These test scores can help the Admissions Committee in making
decisions.
EARLY DECISION PLAN: Candidates who have decided by November 15 that
LaGrange College is their single-choice college may apply for admission under
15
the early decision plan. This plan is for applicants with superior grades and
College Board scores who are certain they want to attend LaGrange College.
The applicant is considered on the basis of his school record through the junior
year and the College Board tests taken in the junior year. An applicant for an
early decision should attach a letter to the application form stating (1) that he
is applying under the Early Decision Plan and expects to have the admissions
procedure completed by November 15, and (2) that LaGrange is definitely
his first-choice college, that he has not applied to any other college, and that
he will enroll at LaGrange if accepted.
The applicant will be notified by December 1 concerning his acceptance. Ac-
cepted applicants will be required to make a S50.00 room-deposit by December
15. Those who have applied-for financial aid and who have serious financial
need will be awarded aid in the form of general scholarships, loans, or jobs
by December 5.
Those who do not quality on this plan, or who do not have a single-choice
college by November 15, may still have their applications considered later
in the year, under the Regular Admission Plan.
EARLY ADMISSION: Early admission is possible for students who have com-
pleted the junior year of high school. To qualify for early admission a student
must rank in the upper one-fourth of high school class, have high scores on
the SAT of the College Entrance Examination Board, have nine of the ten
prescribed units, and have a total of fifteen units.
ADVANCED PLACEMENT: Upon request, advanced placement with credit
toward the degree is granted to those students who take College Board Ad-
vanced Placement Examinations and achieve scores of 4 or 5. Students with
scores of 3 may be granted advanced placement with credit, on the recom-
mendation of the department concerned. Up to 15 quarter hours of credit
may be obtained in this way.
ADMISSION OF TRANSFER STUDENTS: A student who has been in attendance
at another institution may apply for transfer to LaGrange College if he is eli-
gible to return to that institution, or has been graduated from that institution.
For unconditional acceptance a transfer student must have a 2.0 average. A
student with less than a 2.0 average may be accepted on probation.
SPECIAL STUDENTS: Students not working toward a degree may register as
special students for any course for which they have the necessary prerequi-
sites. These students are classified as special students.

ADMISSIONS PROCEDURE
The application process should be started as early as possible after the decision
has been made that the individual wants to attend LaGrange College. Appli-
cation should be completed twenty days prior to the beginning of the term in
which entrance is desired. (Late applications may be considered under certain
circumstances.)
The following items, when on file in the Admissions Office, will complete the
application process:
1 . Application Blank, with attached photograph
2. Transcript of all previous work
3. Health Report
4. College Board Scores if new freshman
5. Application Fee of $10
An interview with an admissions officer or college official is desirable. An
interview is required for any early admission candidate. A room deposit of
$50 for dormitory students should be made within two weeks after acceptance.
The room deposit becomes a standing room reservation for a student as long
as he is enrolled at LaGrange College. A refund may be requested if a student
does not plan to return to LaGrange College the next quarter. The $50 is re-
fundable for the Winter Quarter if requested by December I, for the Spring
Quarter if requested by March 1, and for the Fall Quarter if requested by May
1. Last quarter seniors automatically receive the refund of $50. If a student
fails to request a refund by May 1, it is assumed that he plans to return to
LaGrange College the following Fall Quarter.
Before the file is complete, tentative acceptance may be given after an evalua-
tion of the student's transcript(s) and College Board scores, or in the case of a
transfer student, after evaluation of transcript(s). It is the student's responsibility
to have complete transcript(s) sent. A student's file, including all transcripts,
must be complete before final acceptance and registration.
HOUSING REQUIREMENTS
All single women students, except those living with their parents or close
relatives, are required to reside in a dormitory.
All single men students, except those living with their parents or close rela-
tives, are required to reside in a dormitory unless they have an excuse in
writing from the Dean of Students. With this written permission, except for
17
freshmen, men may reside in approved private homes or boarding houses.
Under no circumstances will single male students be permitted to maintain
private residences.
Married students are expected to make their own housing arrangements.
Unfurnished apartments are available to married students at an unusually low
cost. These are brick buildings located within two miles of the College.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE
The college offers the Bachelor of Arts degree. The requirements of the degree
call for a four-year program. The unit of work is the quarter hour. This means
one class meeting a week for the quarter. A course calling for five class-
meetings a week for a quarter has a value of five hours.
The minimum work required for graduation is 186 quarter hours, 372 quality
points, and a 1 .9 quality-point average overall, as well as in all course work
taken at LaGrange College. To be certified as a candidate for the degree, a
student must have earned an average of 1.9 or better and completed all
General Requirements before the beginning of his final quarter. A student
who fails to earn a degree in sixteen full quarters will be barred from further
registration.
A minimum of 15 quarter hours will meet the academic load requirements
for a full-time student. The maximum full load shall be 17 quarter-hours; any-
thing beyond is considered an overload. No student will be permitted to enroll
for more than 21 hours in any one quarter.
Quality points are assigned as follows: A, 4; B, 3; C, 2; D, 1 ; F, 0. The quality-
point average is computed by dividing the total quality points earned by the
total hours attempted. After a student has attained junior standing (90 quarter
hours and 1 80 quality points), he must take 45 hours in upper-division courses
(those numbered 300 or above).
Not more than 96 quarter hours of credit earned at a junior college will be
counted toward the degree. No credit will be granted toward the degree
for course work taken at a junior college after a student has attained a junior
classification. Credit in the amount of 25 quarter hours only of vocational
course work is allowed toward graduation. A transfer student will not be given
credit toward graduation for any D's earned elsewhere until he has validated
them at LaGrange College. One hour of B earned at LaGrange College will
validate one hour of D, and one hour of A earned at LaGrange College will
validate two hours of D. A transfer student who has not had a laboratory with
his sciences must take a five-hour science course with laboratory.
18
The last 75 hours of credit, in a minimum of 5 quarters, must be earned in
residence at LaGrange College. During his last 6 quarters and last 90 hours
of resident course work, a student may, however, upon obtaining prior ap-
proval from his academic advisor and the Academic Dean, be permitted to
enroll at another four-year college for not more than one full quarter and
not more than fifteen quarter hours of course work. Credit earned in this man-
ner will, for the purpose of meeting the residence requirements set forth in
this paragraph, be considered as residence credit. Credit totaling 10 hours or
more earned in this way during the last 90 hours or final 6 quarters will, how-
ever, preclude the student's being granted credit for any course work taken by
extension or by correspondence during that period.
Any regularly enrolled LaGrange College student who desires to take course
work for credit by extension or by correspondence must obtain prior approval
in writing from his academic advisor and from the Academic Dean. Such ex-
tension or correspondence credit may in no case exceed 10 hours; however,
not more than 5 hours earned in this manner may be applied toward the
fulfillment of the General Requirements of LaGrange College (see below).
Any course or courses so taken must normally be completed before the begin-
ning of the student's final quarter.
A student will not be permitted to repeat at another institution a course in
which an unsatisfactory grade has been received at LaGrange College.
A student is classified as a freshman if he has earned fewer than 45 hours
of credit. A student is classified as a sophomore if he has earned at least 45
hours of credit and fewer than 90. To be classified as a junior, a student must
have earned at least 90 hours of credit and 180 quality points and fewer than
135 hours. A student is classified as a senior upon having earned 135 hours
of credit.
To be classified as an upperclassman (junior) a student must have completed
70 hours of the General Requirements. In the case of Art and Music majors,
the student must have completed 60 hours of the General Requirements to be
considered an upperclassman (junior).
A regular student who has not completed his general requirements must sche-
dule at least 5 hours in that area each quarter until he has completed those
requirements.
No grade below a C in an advanced course may be applied toward a major
or a minor.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: All students are required to meet the general
requirements listed below. It is advisable to meet as many of these require-
ments as possible during the first two academic years.

ucation, Music (organ, piano, or voice), Music Education, Psychology, Religion,
Philosophy, Science (biology, chemistry, general science), Science Education,

or 400 level courses. Specific courses for a minor are not designated, but they
must be approved by an adviser in the department of the minor. No course
may be counted more than once in fulfilling requirements for majors and min-
ors.
PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS OF STUDY: Pre-professional programs avail-
able at LaGrange College are the following:
Dentistry Paramedicine
Law Nursing
Medicine Theology
The student who plans to enter a professional school upon completion of his
college requirements should choose a major in accordance with normal pro-
cedure. He will encounter no difficulty in completing the work prescribed for
entrance into professional studies while satisfying requirements for a bachelor
of arts degree. The prospective professional student should inform his adviser
of his plans in order that all prescribed work may be scheduled.
Although it is possible for a student in some instances to fulfill certain pre-
professional requirements in less than four years, it should be noted that
most professional schools give preference to applicants who have completed
requirements for a bachelor's degree. However, a student who plans to fulfill
minimum requirements for admission to a professional school must, during his
enrollment at LaGrange College, satisfy the basic course requirements which
apply to all students.
Students of outstanding ability who, after careful planning, are accepted for
medical college upon completion of three years of undergraduate study may
be granted the A.B. degree upon completion of the first year of medical study.
This requires the prior approval of the Academic Dean of LaGrange College
and completion of all basic requirements for the A.B. degree.
GRADES AND CREDITS
The definitions of grades given at LaGrange College are as follows:
A indicates superior work.
B indicates work above the average.
C indicates satisfactory work for the average student.
D is the lowest passing grade.
21
E is a conditional grade. A student who has an E has the privilege of re-
examination. The final grade can be no higher than a D.
F indicates failure.
I indicates incomplete work. This grade is assigned in case a student is
doing satisfactory work but for some reason beyond his control has
been unable to complete the work during that quarter. This deferment
must be approved by the instructor and the Academic Dean.
W indicates a student was permitted to withdraw from a course with no
grade assigned and indicates the student was doing satisfactory work at
the time of withdrawal. Normally, a grade of W will not be assigned
after mid-term.
WF indicates a student was permitted to withdraw from a course while doing
unsatisfactory work. The grade of WF is included in the computation of
the grade-point average, having the same value as an F.
E's and I's are temporary grades. Normally, they must be removed by the
date indicated in the Academic Calendar. Failure to remove an E or an I by
the date set automatically makes the grade an F. Grades other than E and I,
once submitted, may not be changed by an instructor except with the formal
approval of the Academic Advisory Council.
Failure of a student to withdraw formally and officially through the office of
the Academic Dean normally will result in the assignment of a WF. This ap-
plies to the withdrawal from any course for which the student is registered, or
to the withdrawal from college.
Grades are assigned and recorded for each course at the end of each quarter.
Formal reports of grades are also issued at the same time. Grades and tran-
scripts are withheld for any student who does not properly clear if he is with-
drawing from the College. All students must properly clear at the end of the
spring quarter, even if they intend to return for either summer or fall quarter,
and failure to do so will result in the withholding of grades and transcripts.
ACADEMIC PROCEDURES
REGISTRATION AND ACADEMIC ADVISERS
All students must register under the direction of the Academic Dean on the
dates indicated in the Academic Calendar. Each student is assigned to a faculty
22
adviser who counsels the student. Freshmen and sophomores are assigned to
a general faculty adviser who continues to serve until basic requirements are
met and/or a major has been selected.
A student interested in a particular major should inform his general adviser
in order that special prerequisite courses for the major may be scheduled.
A major may be formally declared at any time after the beginning of the third
quarter of the student's freshman year. The student must declare his major in
writing to the Academic Dean by the third quarter of his sophomore year.
The student will then be assigned to an adviser in the department in which
he will major.
Faculty advisers are to direct the studentin mapping out an academic program,
but the ultimate responsibility of meeting all requirements rests with the indi-
vidual student. Advisers are available for additional academic counseling.
All students in residence, other than graduating seniors, must register in ad-
vance for the ensuing quarter on the dates specified in the Academic Calendar.
Students not in residence must also register on the dates specified in the Cal-
endar. Failure to register on the proper dates will subject the student to a
S 1 late-registration fee. A similar penalty will be charged for new students or
transfer students. During the spring quarter, advance registration will be con-
ducted for both the summer and the fall quarters.
ACADEMIC PROBATION
A student may be placed on probation whenever the quality of his work is
below the standard required to earn the bachelor's degree. A poor quality of
work may result from one or more of the following causes: inadequate prep-
aration, insufficient maturity, negligence, or absences. A student on probation
is not permitted any absences and is limited in participating in extra-curricular
activities. A student on probation is subject to dismissal by continuing on pro-
bation for a prolonged period of time or by very poor quality of work for
any quarter. Each student is given a copy of complete probation regulations.
ATTENDANCE REGULATIONS
A student is expected to attend all classes, including labs, for all courses for
which he or she is registered. The student is solely responsible for accounting
to his instructor for any absence. An instructor may recommend action by the
Absence Committee and the Academic Dean to drop from class with a grade of
"W" or "WF" any student whose absences are interfering with satisfactory
performance in the course.
23
All students registered for as much as ten hours of work are required to attend
assembly. Exception may be made quarterly by the Absence Committee only
in case of hardship upon students whose outside work might interfere with
attendance. When a student has been absent from assembly three times during
a quarter, he will be allowed no further assembly absences during that quar-
ter; if he is absent more than three times during a quarter, he will be allowed
no assembly absences during his next quarter of attendance. Continued ab-
sences from assembly will result in exclusion. A graduating senior is not ex-
empt from assembly attendance.
A student on probation must account to the Absence Committee for any ab-
sence from a class or from assembly.
FRESHMAN HONORS SECTIONS
Students whose high school records and whose scores on the College Board
and/or placement examinations indicate outstanding scholastic ability may be
placed in special honors class sections in order to provide them an oppor-
tunity to realize their individual potentialities early in their college career.
Honors sections are designated by the suffix "H" following course numbers.
ACCELERATION
Students desiring to accelerate their college program may complete require-
ments in less than four academic years. This may be accomplished by attend-
ing summer schools and/or by taking an academic overload. Permission to
take an academic overload in any quarter is granted only to those students
who have earned at least an average of "B" (3.0) for the preceding quarter.
A student may take an overload during one quarter of his senior year, with-
out respect to grade-point average.
ACADEMIC HONORS
Upon graduation, students who have been in residence at LaGrange College
for at least their last six quarters and (1) have attained a quality point average
of 3.70 to 3.84 may be granted the A.B. degree cum laude or (2) have attained
a quality point average of 3.85 to 4.00 may be granted the A.B. degree mag-
na cum laude. Transfer students, in addition to having the above overall aver-
ages, must have maintained these averages during their residence at LaGrange
College.
INDEPENDENT STUDY
In certain departments an independent study course is offered. This course is
ordinarily limited to upperclass major students with above-average records
who wish to pursue a particular problem or course of reading beyond that
taken up in any formal course and lying within the capabilities of the library
24
and laboratories. Total credit which can be earned through independent study
will be not more than 5 quarter-hours. This credit may be earned all in one
quarter or may be extended over two or more quarters. Permission to enroll
in this course must be obtained from the Department Head concerned. The
course carries the number 491 .
SENIOR HONORS PROGRAM
Seniors with a quality point average of 3.5 or above may apply for participa-
tion in the Honors Program which is available in certain departments. This pro-
gram may be extended over two quarters, with a maximum of ten quarter
hours credit (five hours per quarter). This program carries the course numbers
499-500 in each participating department, with the designation "Honors Course."
Applications must be submitted to the Academic Dean.
TEACHER CERTIFICATION
A student who receives the A.B. degree and who has also completed an ap-
proved program of teacher education, upon application, will be awarded the
professional teaching certificate by the State Board of Education. This certifi-
cate entitles the holder to teach in the public schools of Georgia. (See Educa-
tion under courses of instruction.)
TESTING
A series of tests is given to each new student upon entering LaGrange Col-
lege. The purpose of the testing program is to assist in identifying the areas
of strength and weakness of each individual student. An important indication
of strength or weakness is the score on the College Board which each new
freshman is required to present before admission. Other tests are adminis-
tered by the College to each new student at the beginning of his first quar-
ter of residence. These locally administered tests are not entrance examina-
tions but are designed to help the College in advising the student as he plans
his academic program.

INFORMATION
Academic Year- 1966-1967
GENERAL INFORMATION
All charges for tuition, fees, and dormitory accommodations are stated by the
quarter and are payable at time of registration. If for any reason one is not
prepared to pay in full in advance, arrangements for monthly payments to be
completed within the quarter must be made with the Business Manager before
registration is final. Arrangements have also been made through Education
Funds, Inc., to handle a deferred payment schedule over longer periods of
time. Loans for tuition and other school expenses are available through this
plan. Information and application blanks regarding this type of plan may be
secured by writing directly to Education Funds, Inc., Box 440, Providence 3,
Rhode Island.
METHOD OF PAYMENT
As stated above, expenses are due and payable quarterly in advance. Those
making arrangements for monthly payments will be charged an installment fee
of $5.00 per quarter. Any student whose account is not paid in full within two
weeks from date of registration will automatically be charged the installment
fee. Monthly payments will be due as follows:
One-third at registration.
One-third within thirty days from date of registration.
Balance in full within sixty days from date of registration.
A student enrolled at LaGrange College must fulfill the terms of his financial
obligations for the quarter for which he is registered. Monthly payments do
not relieve the student of these obligations in case of withdrawal prior to the
end of the quarter. Failure to make monthly payments as arranged will sub-
ject student to withdrawal from classes.

opportunity to resell their used texts to the store. All items are sold for cash
only.
HOLIDAYS
Dormitories and the Dining Hall will be closed during Thanksgiving, Christmas,
Spring, and Summer Holidays. Students will not be allowed to remain on cam-
pus during these periods and dormitories will not be open to students prior

29
MEDICAL CARE
Each student entering LaGrange College is required to have a physical exam-
ination. The College supplies the blanks for reporting this examination. The
physician sends the report to the College. Until this report is on file, the stu-
dent's application is incomplete.
Under the student health program, students are provided care by the College
physicians in the student infirmary. The service of these physicians and the
infirmary staff are available to dormitory students only.
Charges for X-rays, prescriptions, hospital charges, and fees of physicians or
surgeons to whom a student is referred are the responsibility of the student.
Private nurses and personal physicians must be paid for by the student.
An optional group accident and sickness insurance plan is available to all full-
time students. This insurance supplements the student health service, providing
benefits which include a maximum of $500 for any one accident; up to 30 days
at $12 per day hospital board and room; up to $225 surgical fee; and provi-
sions for miscellaneous hospital costs up to $120. The College designed the
specifications of this insurance plan to meet the needs of its students. The con-
tract for the insurance is between the student and the insurance company. The
annual premium of $17 covers a calendar year, including holidays and summer
vacation. Those desiring this coverage may address correspondence to the
Business Office or may subscribe to this insurance at the time of registration.
This insurance plan is not compulsory, but it is recommended by the College.

FINANCIAL
ASSISTANCE
Through its financial program, LaGrange College tries to make it possible for
all qualified students to attend. Financial aid consists of scholarships or grants,
loans, and employment. In order that those students who genuinely need finan-
cial assistance may receive the aid they must have, the college requires that
all who request financial aid complete the Parent's Confidential Statement pro-
vided by College Scholarship Service. For additional information about the
financial aid program at LaGrange College, a student may write the Financial
Aid Office for a brochure.
Procedure for applying for financial aid:
