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 per-
manently 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 broaden aesthetic appreciation and those
which help mankind to make technical advancement. Even
in areas that are generally not associated with the liberal
arts, such as business administration, education, and the
training of nurses, a heavy emphasis is still placed upon 5
the liberal arts in the non-major aspects of the program. Philosophy
Since every endeavor is carried out within a philosophical > Zducotion
framework, our educational task is pursued from the orien-
tation 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.
6
LaGrange
College
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, eco-
nomic, political, and religious forces which have op-
erated 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 in-
formation 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.
General Information
HISTORICAL SKETCH
During his visit to the United States in 1824-25, General
Gilbert Metier de LaFayette came to Georgia. He was the
last remaining general to fight on the American side in the
Revolution. His official host was George M. Troup, governor
of the state. So great an impression was made by the French
visitor that about 50 towns and counties in the nation were
named for him. In 1828, the town of LaGrange was chartered,
taking its name from LaFayette's estate 40 miles outside
Paris. The county was later named for Governor Troup.
Founded in 1831, LaGrange Female Academy became in
1847, the LaGrange Female Institute with authority to grant
degrees. In 1851, the name was changed to LaGrange Female
College. In 1856, it became the property of the North Georgia
Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. The
name was changed to LaGrange College in 1934, becoming
officially coeducational in 1953. It is an institution of The
United Methodist Church.
7
LOCATION General
The town of LaGrange has a population of 25,000 in the heart Information
of a progressive textile area. Nearby are Callaway Gardens,
the Warm Springs Foundation and Franklin D. Roosevelt's
Little White House. The West Point Dam on the Chattahoo-
chee River, nearing completion, will provide one of the
largest lakes in the region, with waterfronts within the city
limits of LaGrange.
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 L T niversity
Senate, and has membership in the Association of American
Colleges, the American Council on Education, the National
Association of Methodist Colleges, the Georgia Association
of Colleges, The American Alumni Council, and the Georgia
POundation for Independent Colleges. The Georgia State
Board of Education, which confers professional certificates
upon college graduates meeting requirements in elementary
or secondary education, in 1968 reaffirmed five-year (highest)
approval to the professional education program of LaGrange
College.

Student Affairs
LaCrange College students are provided with excellent
opportunity for participation in a variety of student organi-
zations. They may serve the college community and find full,

RELIGIOUS LIFE
Students find opportunities for religious worship and service
in a manner afforded 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. Mans LaCrange College students
ser\ e churches during the summer l>\ assisting in vacation
church schools and young people's organizations.
The Inter-Faith Council sponsors a weekly worship service
in the Chapel, especially for LaCrange College students.
Important events in the life of the campus are the Arthur
H. Thompson Lectures and Religious Emphasis Week. The
Arthur H. Thompson Lecture Series brings to the campus
scholars from many different fields of knowledge. Religious
Emphasis Week is conducted by a minister.
Traditionally, prior to graduation, the senior class partici-
pates in a special communion service.
ENDOWED LECTURESHIPS
THE ARTHUR H. THOMPSON LECTURESHIP brings
to the campus each year noted scholars to address the faculty
and student body on the interrelationship of a field of

the Board of Trustees of the College. He expressed his phi-
losophy in the statement: "The greatest thing in life is the
simple faith of an honest man."
THE JENNIE LEE EPPS LECTURESHIP brings to the
campus each year noted scholars to address the faculty and

CULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES

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 programs, to produce original art, and to take part
in dramatic productions.
Those interested in the theatre will enjoy the Summer Theatre
Repertory conducted by the Speech and Drama Department.
Students enrolled in this course produce comedies in reper-
tory at Callaway Gardens.
Visiting artists and lecturers are brought to the community
annually. The Division of Fine Arts each year sponsors
programs and activities focusing attention on drama, music,
and visual arts. LaGrange College student performances also
are of such quality that the students perform both in La-
Grange and in other communities. The students may avail
themselves of cultural opportunities in Atlanta and Columbus.
ASSEMBLY ATTENDANCE REQUIREMENTS
All students registered for as much as ten hours of work
are required to attend convocations and assemblies. Excep-
tion may be made quarterly by the Dean of Students only
in case of hardship upon students whose outside work might
interfere with attendance. When a student has been absent
from assembly one time during a quarter, he will be allowed
no further assembly absences during that quarter; if he is '
u *u * a * u -li u Student
absent more than one time during a quarter, he will be . ,
allowed no assembly absences during his next quarter of
attendance. Continued absences from assembly will result
in exclusion from LaGrange College. A graduating senior is
not exempt from assembly attendance.
HOUSING REQUIREMENTS
LaGrange College is a residential college. Women students
live on campus, except for those living with relatives. Un-
married men students under twenty-one years of age live on
campus, except for those living with relatives. Men students
may move off campus at the beginning of the quarter after
their twenty-first birthday or at the beginning of the first
quarter in their senior year.
Students occupying single rooms pay $20 per quarter extra.
Exception is made only if, due to an unequal number of
students, there is no roommate available.
No pets are allowed in the dormitory at any time.
Married students are expected to make their own housing
arrangements. The Dean of Students' office keeps a list of
available housing.
MEDICAL CARE
Under the Student Health Program students are provided
care by a registered nurse in the student infirmary. The
nurse is on duty from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY
14
LaGrange Responsibility for maintenance of high standards and hon-
Cottege orable 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 con-
duct 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 enroll-
ment at LaGrange College, signs the following pledge:
// recognition of the obligations and privileges of mem-
bership in the student body of LaGrange College, I
herel)y agree to obey all rules and regulations of the
College: to respect and to cooperate with its constituted
authorities; to conduct myself honorably; and at all times
to lice in such a manner as to reflect credit upon myself,
my family, and the College. I realize that failure to com-
ply 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 administrative
officers is sufficient.
15
STUDENT GOVERNMENT
Matters pertaining to the Student Government and student
affairs are under the general direction of the Dean of Stu-
dents and the Student Affairs Committee. Each LaCrange
College student participates in the election of student officers.
The Student Government Association has three branches.
An executive council, under the direction of officers elected
by campus-wide balloting, coordinates and regulates all
student activities on the campus. A legislative council makes
the rules which regulate the democratic living of La Grange
College students. The judicial council may try cases involving
dishonesty and serious misbehavior.
STUDENT CONDUCT
LaCrange College has high standards of conduct. Drinking,
lying, cheating, and stealing are not countenanced. In of-
fenses involving issues of honor, the Judicial Council of the
Student Government Association shall determine involve-
ment; 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 responsi-
bility in the dismissal of students, shall concur in, revise, or
reverse the recommendations of the Judicial Council. Affairs
The possession or consumption on the LaGrange College
campus of any type of alcoholic beverage, drugs, or other
intoxicant is forbidden. The College does not condone the use
of intoxicants or drugs off campus, or at any off-campus
activities of student social organizations. The failure on the
part of the members of such an organization, or any of its
guests, in any of its activities, duly to observe this principle
can result in disciplinary action against the organization,
as well as its individual members or student-guests.
Where the offense is one of serious social misconduct, the
Dean of Students has the authority for disciplinary action.
When there are infractions of standards of integrity in the
academic area, the Academic Dean has authority in dismissal.
ORIENTATION AND COUNSELING
All new students are introduced to LaCrange 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 believed that all students will profit from a proper
introduction to the opportunities and responsibilities of
college life. Throughout their residence at LaGrange College,
students may secure ready counseling service in personal
matters from faculty advisers, the Director of Student
Counseling, the Dean of Students, the Academic Dean, or
the President.
SOCIAL LIFE
Realizing that every well balanced life demands both
recognition and participation, LaGrange College offers
opportunities for many social contacts. Fraternities and
sororities are maintained on a national basis. The social
life of the campus is conducted largely by the fraternities
and sororities.
There are four national fraternities: Delta Tau Delta, Kappa
Sigma, Pi Kappa Phi, and Tau Kappa Epsilon.
There are three national sororities: Alpha Omicron Pi,
Kappa Delta, and Phi Mu. The Green Council and National
jfi Panhellenic Council supervises and promotes cooperation
LaGrange among these social groups.

tendance at another institution may apply for transfer to
LaGrange College if he is eligible to return to that institution
at the time of entry to LaGrange College. Normally transfer
students who have the A. A. Degree or an equivalent degree
from an accredited junior college will be exempt from all
LaGrange College General Requirements. A student with
less than a 2.0 average may be accepted on probation. All

CREDIT-BY-EXAMINATION AND EXEMPTION
Persons with atypical educational experience may be eligible
for credit and/or exemption in certain areas, through the
College Level Examination Program (CLEP) of the College
Entrance Examination Board. As much as 50 hours of

Further information may be obtained from the Director
of Admissions.
CREDIT THROUGH UNITED STATES ARMED
FORCES INSTITUTE AND SERVICE SCHOOLS
Courses taken through the United States Armed Forces
Institute and other recognized military educational programs
will be accepted in accordance with the policy governing
transfer work when presented on official transcripts from
accredited institutions. Fifteen quarter hours of elective
credit will be allowed for military service credit, including
USAF1 correspondence courses and military service school
courses as recommended by the American Council on
Education. One activity course, up to a maximum of five,
of physical education will be waived for each two months
served in some branch of the Armed Forces.
DEGREES OFFERED
At present, LaCrange College offers only the Bachelor of
Arts Degree. However, a statement of intent to offer a
master's degree in teacher education which would meet
requirements for teacher certification has been submitted
to the proper authorities.
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE A. B. DEGREE
The requirements for the Bachelor of Arts 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 quarter hours.
The minimum work required for graduation is 185 quarter
hours 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 a S3
cumulative average of 1.9 or better and completed all Gen- Administrative
eral Requirements before the beginning of his final quarter. Regulations
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; anything beyond is considered
an overload. No student will be permitted to enroll for more
than 21 hours in any one quarter.
Quality points are earned 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. If
a student has received credit for a course and repeats that
course, he receives no additional credit toward the degree.
In computing the students average, hours attempted and
quality points are counted on both attempts.
Not more than 95 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 junior standing.
A transfer student will not be given credit toward graduation
for any I)s earned elsewhere until he has validated them at
LaGrange College. One hour of B earned at LaGrange Col-
lege 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, if he elects
science to fulfill General Requirements.
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 written ap-
proval from his academic adviser 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. For the purpose of meeting the resi-
dence requirements, credit earned in this manner will 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, however, preclude the students being granted
credit for any course work taken by extension or by corres-
pondence during the period.
Any regularly enrolled LaGrange College student who
34 desires to take course work for credit by extension or by
Laixrange correspondence must obtain prior approval in writing from
IsOUege n j s academic adviser and from the Academic Dean. Such
extension 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. Any course or courses
so taken must be completed before the beginning of the
students final quarter, in order to be graduated that quarter.
A student will not be permitted to repeat as a transient 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 sopho-
more if he has earned at least 45 hours of credit and fewer
than 90. To lie classified as a junior, a student must have
earned at least 90 hours of credit and fewer than 135 hours.
A student is classified as a senior upon having earned 135
hours of credit.
No grade below C may be applied toward a major.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS: All students are required to
meet the General Requirements listed below. (Normally
transfer students who have the A. A. Degree or an
equivalent degree from an accredited junior college will
be exempt from all LaGrange College General Re-
quirements.) A student should meet as many of the
requirements as possible during the first two academic
years. A student classified as a freshman must schedule
at least 10 hours of General Requirements each quarter.
Other students who have not completed General Require-
ments must schedule at least 5 hours each quarter until
they have completed these requirements. Any exception
must have prior written approval of the adviser and of
the Academic Dean.
Each student must select 60 quarter hours from six of
the following seven areas. At least one course must be
selected from each of the six areas chosen, and no more
than three may be chosen as General Requirements from
any area. After the requisite 60 hours of General
Requirements have been met, other courses from the
General Requirements may be elected. Courses desig-
nated by a ( t ) are beginning courses; a beginning course

LaGrange PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS OF STUDY: Pre-
College professional programs available at LaGrange College include
the following:
Dentistry Nursing Pharmacy
Law Optometry Social Work
Medicine Paramedicine Theology
The student who plans to enter a professional school upon
completion of his college requirements should choose a major
in accordance with normal procedure. 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 pre-
scribed 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, most professional schools give preference to applicants
who have completed requirements for a bachelors degree.
However, a student \n ho plans to fulfill minimum require-
ments for admission to a professional school must, during
his enrollment at LaGrange College, satisfy the General
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 re-
quires the prior approval of the Academic Dean of LaCrange
College and completion of all General Requirements for the
A.B. degree.
GRADES AND CREDITS
The definitions of grades given at LaCrange College are as
follows:
A superior
B above average
C average
D below average
F failing
E temporary conditional grade. A student who has an
E has the privilege of re-examination. The final
grade can be no higher than a D.
I incomplete. This grade is assigned in case a student
is doing satisfactory work but for some reason be-
yond his control has been unable to complete the
work during that quarter. This deferment must be
given written approval in advance by the instructor
and the Academic Dean.
W withdrawn passing. Normally, a grade of \V will not
be assigned after midquarter.
WF withdrawn failing. The grade of WF is included in
computation of grade point average.
PF penalty failing. This grade is given for a breach of
honor and is computed in grade point average.
A student may register for a course on a non-credit basis for
which he pays full tuition. If the student desires to have a
grade assigned, he must take all examinations.
A student may audit a course by paving the audit fee. All
requests for audit courses must be approved in writing b>
the instructor and Academic Dean. No new freshman stu-
dent may audit any course during the first quarter of
residence at LaCrange College.
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,
within the next quarter.
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 transcripts are withheld for an)
student who is under financial obligation to the College.

Administrative
Regulations
Academic
Procedures
REGISTRATION AND ACADEMIC ADVISERS
All students must register in advance on the dates specified
in the Academic Calendar. Failure to register on the proper
dates will subject the student to a $10 late-registration fee.
All registration procedures for all quarters are under the
direction of the Academic Dean.
Each student is assigned to a faculty adviser, who continues
to serve until General Requirements are met and/or a major
has been formally declared. Faculty advisers assist the
student in planning an academic program, but the ultimate
responsibility of meeting all requirements rests with the
individual student. Advisers are available for additional
counseling.
A student interested in a particular major should inform his
general adviser in order that special prerequisite courses for 39
the major may be scheduled. A major may be formally de- Academic
clared at any time after the student has earned 30 hours of Procedures
credit. The student must declare his major in writing to
the Academic Dean by the time he has earned 90 quarter
hours of credit. The student will then be assigned to an advis-
er in the department in which he will major. A student plan-
ning to pursue a program in Teacher Education should
make application in writing to the head of the Depart-
ment of Education at the time he declares his major.
WITHDRAWAL
A student who wishes to withdraw from any course should
confer with the Academic Dean. Failure of a student to with-
draw from a course formally and officially through the office
of the Academic Dean normally will result in the assignment
of a WF. Failure of a student to withdraw officially from the
College normally will result in the assignment of WF's for all
courses for which he is registered.
A student who wishes to withdraw from the College should
also confer with the Dean of Students.
40
ACADEMIC PROBATION REGULATIONS
A review and reconsideration of the academic probation
regulations of the College is in progress; however, as of
March 1, 1972, the following regulations are still in effect:
When the quality of a students academic work is such that
there is a danger he will not he able to attain the average
required for graduation, he should be warned of his situation.
This is the purpose of probation. It is not a penalty, but it is
a warning. A student on probation and the parents of the
student shall be notified and shall have their attention
called to the regulations governing probation. Any student
above freshman level (45 hours of credit) who fails to
maintain a 2.0 cumulative grade-point average at the end
of any quarter for which he is enrolled will be placed on
Academic Probation. (For freshmen a 1.75 cumulative grade-
point average is required.) The student then has three full
quarters in which to achieve a 2.0 cumulative grade-point
average. Any student who fails to do so will be excluded.
Transfer students with less than a 2.0 cumulative grade-
point average are admitted on probation and are subject to
these probation regulations. A student will be excluded for
failing to pass at least five quarter hours of academic work
in a quarter, or for failing to earn a degree in sixteen full
g quarters. A student excluded for academic reasons may be
ineligible for readmission to LaGrange College. In the case
of part-time students, the extent of application of these
regulations will be at the discretion of the Academic Dean.
Normally a student will not be removed from probation
upon the basis of less than a fifteen hour academic load.
CLASS ATTENDANCE REGULATIONS
A student is expected to attend all classes, including labs,
for all courses for which he 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.
ACCELERATION
Students desiring to accelerate their college program may
complete requirements in less than four academic years.
This may be accomplished by attending summer schools
and/or by taking an academic overload. Permission to take
an overload in any quarter is granted only to those students
who have earned at least an average of B (3.0) for the pre-
ceding quarter, except that a student may take an overload
during one quarter of his senior year without respect to
grade-point average.
ACADEMIC HONORS
Upon graduation, students who have been in residence at
LaGrange College for at least their last ninety hours and
1. have attained a quality point average of 3.45 to 3.64
may be granted the A.B. degree cum laude or
2. have attained a quality point average of 3.65 to 3.79
may be granted the A.B. degree magna cum laude or
3. have attained a quality point average of 3.80 to 4.0 may
be granted the A.B. degree summa cum laude.
At the end of each academic quarter, students who have
maintained 3.5 quality point average on a minimum of 15
quarter hours of work will be placed on the Deans List.
SPECIAL PROGRAMS 41
There are several categories of special programs, described
below. These are designed to meet special interests and
special needs. In no case are they intended to be used as sub-
stitutes for any regular course offerings. Also, concurrent
enrollment in any two or more of these special programs is
discouraged.
SPECIAL STUDIES
In certain departments a course in special studies is offered.
This course carries the number 399 and is offered for credit
of not more than 5 quarter hours in one department to stu-
dents who have the appropriate background and 90 quarter
