PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE 

The growing generation seeks answers to issues 
that, from their point of view, the older generations 
has not properly managed. The more patient among 
the experienced generation recognize that the 
achievement of an understanding requires an 
interplay of ideas, a knowledge of history, the 
testimony of literature and philosophy, the assess- 
ment of political, social, and economic structures, 
a recognition of the role of the sciences, a study of 
society, an investigation of the human mind, the 
expression of peoples through language, and an 
assessment of man as a spiritual being. In short, a 
liberal education is the key to man's understanding 
of the world of nature and the world of beings. 

The problems are complex. No simple answers 
are available. That the accumulation of knowledge 
has not resulted in a harmonious relationship be- 
tween man and man, and man and nature, is not 
an indictment of knowledge. It is an indictment of 
man. 

The solutions that youth seek, therefore, demand 
integrity and purpose. Through these harmony may 
be achieved. A worthy college makes a serious 
effort to help in the achievement. We are dedicated 
to this effort. Join us. 



Sincerely, /? 

Weights G. Henry, Jr. * 
President

Philosophy of Education 
at LaGrange College 



The dynamic of modern life is change. Survival for the 
individual  psychological, social, and economic  demands 
adaptability to life patterns which are altering so rapidly as 
to be obsolete by the time they become familiar. The insti- 
tutions of higher learning which hope to contribute to the 
preparing of human beings to meet successfully the chal- 
lenges and the ordeals of a change-oriented society must 
necessarily be directed toward flexibility and bold experi- 
ment. 

LaGrange College, a church-related Liberal Arts college, 
reaffirms its commitment to the concept of education based 
on a proven heritage of knowledge and wisdom of the past 
and based on the values of an active Christianity. It recog- 
nizes also the necessity for revitalizing these bases to meet 
present-day needs, on the local, state, and national level. 

The college must be the diagnostic center of society; it must 
examine, criticize, draw tentative, not dogmatic, conclusions. 
It must be the creative center of society as well, finding new 
directions, both human and technological. It must prepare 
the student to earn his living in a highly technological society; 
more important, it must equip him with the tools of learning 
for adjustment to new situations which cannot even with 
exactness be predicted, rather than merely endowing him 
with a set of fixed and final notions. In the increasingly 
technological and dehumanized society, it must preserve the 
concept of the significance of the individual human being. 

LaGrange College believes that as a Christian Liberal Arts 
college, it can most successfully achieve these aims through 
an application of the principles of its commitment in a 
program designed to experiment boldly with new techniques 
of student involvement in the learning process, new methods 
of evaluation of individual students' achievements prior to 
the college level, new approaches to curricula, and new 
programs which go beyond the conventional areas hallowed 
by the sanction of time as the rigid limit of the liberal arts 
college. Our aim is to prepare the student in the most effec- 
tive program possible for assuring that he is "at home" in 
any environment, however alien, with a security based on a 
sense of constancy in the midst of change.

General Information 



HISTORICAL SKETCH 

During his visit to the United States in 1824-25, Major General 
Gilbert Motier de LaFayette came to Georgia. The last living 
member of General George Washington's staff, he was 
greeted in Savannah by Governor George M. Troup. So great 
was the impression of the visitor upon the nation that some 
fifty towns and counties were named for him. In 1828, at the 
suggestion of Julius C. Alford, the town of LaGrange, 
Georgia, was chartered in his honor. The county was 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. 

6 

LaGrange LOCATION 

College The town of LaGrange has a population of 25,000 in the heart 

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 University 
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, the Georgia 
Foundation for Independent Colleges, and the Association of 
Private Colleges and Universities in Georgia. The Georgia 
State Board of Education, which confers professional certifi- 
cates upon college graduates meeting requirements in 
elementary or secondary education, has awarded five-year 
(highest) approval to LaGrange College's program of teacher 



education. Approval has been granted by the Georgia Board 
of Examiners for nurses to initiate a training program for 
nurses on the Associate Degree level. 

Approval has been granted by the Southern Association of 
Colleges and Schools to initiate a program offering the 
Master of Education degree.

Student Affairs 



LaGrange 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, 
happy and rewarding experiences as well. Campus activities 
outside the classroom are educational and help to develop 
qualities of a mature person: initiative, self-reliance, sense of 
responsibility, versatility, capacity for independent thought 
and action, and ability to work constructively with others. 



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 intercol- 
legiate competition in basketball, baseball, tennis, golf, 
cross-country, track, volleyball, and bowling. The College 
has teams in basketball and tennis. The College has a program 11 

of intramural sports in which all students are encouraged Student 

to participate. Affairs 

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. Many LaGrange College students 
serve churches during the summer by assisting in vacation 
church schools and young people's organizations. 

Sunday worship service is held in the Chapel especially for 
LaGrange College students. 






12 



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. 

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 
knowledge and the Christian religion. The endowment was 
established by Mrs. Mary Will Thompson, alumna, in 
memory of her husband, who was at one time chairman of 
the Roard 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 
student body in the field of English. The endowment was 
established by Miss Kate Howard Cross, former professor 
of Latin at LaGrange College, in loving memory of her friend 
and colleague, Dr. Jennie Lee Epps, who was professor of 

LaGrange English at LaGrange College for 28 years. 

College 

THE A. S. MITCHELL LECTURESHIP, established by 
the Mitchell Foundation, Inc., brings lecturers to the campus 
for assembly programs. 

THE ERNESTINE MAY DEMPSEY LECTURESHIP was 

provided by alumna LaVerne Garrett in memory of her 
former English professor who taught at LaGrange College, 
1908-1914. 

THE ERNEST AUBREY BAILEY LECTURESHIP honors 
the memory of the Academic Dean who served LaGrange 
College from 1922 to 1959. The fund was established by 
Mrs. Bailey and their daughter, Mrs. William F. Corley. 

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 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. Exception 
may be made quarterly by the Dean of Students only in case 
of hardship upon students whose outside work might inter- 
fere 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 
absent more than one time during a quarter, he will be 
allowed no assembly absences during his next quarter of 



13 

Student 



attendance. Affair 



HOUSING REQUIREMENTS 

LaGrange College is a residential college. Men and women 
students may move off campus at the beginning of the 
quarter after their twenty-first birthday, or at the beginning 
of the first quarter of their senior year. Unmarried students 
under twenty-one years of age live on campus except for those 
living with relatives. 

Students occupying single rooms pay extra per quarter 
depending on the dormitory in which they reside. 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. A few unfurnished apartments are available 
to married students at an unusually low cost. These are brick 
buildings located within two miles of the College. 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 Friday 
and for emergency calls between these hours. The nurse 
assists the students in securing a physician if needed. The 
services of the nurse and the use of the infirmary are avail- 
able 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. The annual premium 
covers a calendar year, including holidays and summer 
vacation. 



STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY 

14 

LaGrange Responsibility for maintenance of high standards and hon- 

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: 

In recognition of the obligations and privileges of mem- 
bership 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 constituted 
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 com- 
ply with this pledge subjects trie 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 lie asked 
to withdraw. In such cases the judgment of the administrative 
officers is sufficient. 



College 



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 LaGrange 
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 LaGrange 
College students. The judicial council may try cases involving 
dishonesty and serious misbehavior. 



STUDENT CONDUCT 

LaGrange 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. 

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 LaGrange College through 
an orientation program which takes place at the beginning 
of each quarter. The orientation program is designed to 



15 

Student 
Affairs 



16 

luaGrange 

College 



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 recog- 
nition and participation, LaGrange College offers oppor- 
tunities 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 three national fraternities: Delta Tau Delta, Kappa 
Sigma, and Pi Kappa Phi. 

There are three national sororities: Alpha Omicron Pi, 
Kappa Delta, and Phi Mu. The Greek Council and National 
Panhellenic Council supervise and promote cooperation 
among these social groups. 

PLACEMENT SERVICE 

Each senior is requested to complete materials for a dossier 
and upon request a copy of this dossier is supplied to graduate 
schools or prospective employers. Throughout the academic- 
year, conferences are scheduled and interviews with visiting 
recruiters are arranged. 

ORGANIZATIONS FOR ALL STUDENTS 

THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION, based 
on the authority granted by the College Administration, 
exists to serve as a medium for student expression, to coordi- 
nate campus activities, to promote better citizenship, to 
cooperate with the community, to uphold the Code of Honor, 
and to serve LaGrange College. As a service organization, 
the drafting, printing, and enforcement of student rules and 
regulations are a primary responsibility of the Student 
Government Association. Although office-holding in the 
Student Government Association is restricted by specified 
scholastic standards, as a democratic organization the Stu- 
dent Government Association includes all members of the 
student body. 



ATHLETIC ASSOCIATIONS  The Men's and Women's 
Athletic Associations formulate rules of eligibility for intra- 
mural teams and seek to promote physical development, 
good sportsmanship, and interest in sports among men and 
women students. The mens and women's physical education 
directors supervise the respective men's and women's intra- 
mural sports programs. 

CLASS ORGANIZATION Each of the four classes annually 
elects officers and meets when necessary to discuss and to 
take action on matters of interest to the class.

to state and federal income taxes. Students are required to 
complete necessary forms before they begin work assign- 
ments and should have their Social Security cards when they

LaGrange t j, e \ ast year in j,^ scnoo l. 

College 

College Board Achievement Tests in English Composition, 
Math Level I, and Foreign Language (if taken in high school) 
should be taken prior to enrolling. The results are used for 
placement purposes only and in no way change a student's 
candidacy for admission. 

Mature students with an irregular educational background 
may qualify for admission by achieving satisfactory scores on 
the tests of General Educational Development, High School 
Level. 

EARLY DECISION PLAN: Candidates who have decided 
by November 1 that LaGrange College is their single-choice 
college may apply for admission under the Early Decision 
Plan. This plan is for applicants 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 early decision must attach 
a letter to the application stating (1) that he is applying under 
the Early Decision Plan and expects to have the admissions 
procedure completed by November 1, and (2) that LaGrange 



College is his only choice, that he has not applied to any 
other college, and that he will enroll at LaGrange if accepted. 

The applicant will be notified by November 15 concerning 
his acceptance. Accepted applicants will be required to make 
a $50.00 room deposit by December 1. Those who have 
applied for financial aid and who have serious financial need 
may be awarded aid in general from scholarships, loans, 
or jobs. In this event, the applicant will be notified by 
December 5.

dents who will have completed the junior year of high school. 
To qualify, a student must have a B+ or better high school 
average in his academic courses, have ten of the eleven 
prescribed units, and have a total of fifteen units. Also to 
qualify, a student must have a minimum score on the College

creasing number of high school students beginning their R >a j t' 

twelfth grade who need only one or two academic units to 

graduate and who very often become bored for lack of a 

sufficient challenge, LaGrange College has adopted a 

policy for Joint Enrollment at both LaGrange College and 

the student's high school. To qualify, a student must have 

a B+ or better high school average in his academic courses 

and a minimum score on the College Board SAT of 1050 

combined or a composite score of 25 on the ACT. A minimum 

of 500 on the Verbal SAT or a minimum of 24 in the English 

subject area of the ACT is desirable. 

FALL-QUARTER-ON-TRIAL PROGRAM: This program is 
for applicants who are unable to qualify for regular ad- 
mission to LaGrange College, but who have the potential 
to succeed. The program has replaced the "summer-on-trial" 
admissions previously offered to such candidates. These 
students participate in learning and study-skill evaluation 
and developmental courses, with controlled course selection. 
Students in this program must begin fall quarter. Further 
information is available from the Director of Admissions. 

TRANSFER STUDENTS: A student who has been in at- 
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 
records, including transcripts of all college work attempted, 
must be complete before the student is admitted to LaGrange 
College. Applicants may enroll any quarter. 

TRANSIENT STUDENTS: Students currently enrolled at 
another college and in good standing, may enroll at La- 
Grange College as transient students. Approval of course 
work must be authorized on the Application for Transient 
Status which is available from the Admissions Office. 

SPECIAL STUDENTS: Students not working toward a 
degree may register as special students in any course for 
which they have the necessary prerequisites. An application 
for Special Student Status may be obtained through the 
Admissions Office. 

READMISSION STUDENTS: Following an absence from 
LaGrange College of one or more quarters, other than the 
Summer Quarter, the student who decides to return must 
^, n process an Application for Readmission. This form is avail- 

able from the Admissions Office. 

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 Roard. As much as 50 hours of credit 
and/or exemption may be obtained in this way. Further 
information may be obtained from the Director of Ad- 
missions. 

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 
USAFI correspondence courses and military service school 
courses as recommended by the American Council on Edu-

cation. One activity course in Physical Education, up to a 
maximum of 5, will be waived for each two months served in 
the Armed Forces; a corresponding reduction will be made 
in the total number of hours required for the degree. 

DEGREES OFFERED 

LaGrange College offers the following degrees: Bachelor of 
Arts, Associate in Arts in Nursing, and Master of Education. 

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 
cumulative average of 1.9 or better and completed all Gen- 
eral Requirements before the beginning of his final quarter. 
A student who fails to earn a degree in sixteen full quarters 33 

will be denied further registration. Administrative 



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 towards the degree. 
In computing the student's 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 D'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 



Regulations 



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 60 hours of credit, in a minimum of 4 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 student's being granted 
Credit for any course work taken by extension or by corre- 
spondence during the period. 

Any regularly enrolled LaGrange College student who de- 
sires to take course work for credit by extension or by 
correspondence must obtain prior approval in writing from 
his academic adviser and from the Academic Dean. Such 
34 extension or correspondence credit may in no case exceed 

LaGrange 10 hours; however, not more than 5 hours earned in this 

College 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 
student's final quarter, in order to be graduated that quarter. 

Normally a student will not be permitted to repeat as a 
transient at another institution a course in which an unsatis- 
factory 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 classed 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 in any course above 100-level may be 
applied toward a major. 



GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BACHELOR OF ARTS DEGREE: 
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 Requirements.) A student should complete 
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 Requirements 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 Re- 
quirements from any area. After the requisite 60 hours of General 
Requirements have been met, other courses from the General Require- 
ments may be elected. Courses designated by a (f) are beginning 
courses; a beginning course must be taken in each area chosen. 

Beginning with the entering class for Fall, 1973, successful completion 
of a course in basic English skills (Eng 101) by the end of the sophomore 
year will be required of all students seeking a Bachelor's degree from 
LaGrange College. Students will receive 5 quarter hours of credit for 
successful completion, but this credit may not be used to satisfy any 
part of the 60 quarter hour General Requirements of the College. 

This course may be exempted only by those students who have scored 
500 or above on the verbal component of the SAT examination or its 
equivalent and have written an essay acceptable to the Examining 
Committee of the College. 

Transfer students will be advised of the application or non-application 
of this requirement to their particular situation.

A minor must include at least thirty hours, fifteen of which 
must be in 300-level courses. Specific courses for a minor 
are not designated, but they must be approved by the head

PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS OF STUDY: Pre- 

professional programs available at LaGrange College include 
the following: 



Dentistry 


Pharmacy 


Law 


Optometry 


Medicine 
Theology 


Paramedicine 



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 
baehelor 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 bachelor's degree. 
However, a student who 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 LaGrange 
College and completion of all General Requirements for the 
A.B. degree. 

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE A.A. DEGREE 
IN NURSING 

The requirements for the Associate in Arts in Nursing 
degree call for a two-year program. The work unit, the 
number of quarter hours, and the number of class meetings 
per week are the same as required for the A.B. degree. The 
minimum number of quarter hours required for the com- 
pletion of this degree is 100. The following course pattern 
is required for this major:

GRADES AND CREDITS 

The definitions of grades given at LaGrange College are as 
follows: 

A  superior 

B  above average 

C  average 

D  below average 

F  failing 

I  incomplete. 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 given 
written approval in advance by the instructor and the 

Academic Dean. 
W  withdrawn passing. Normally, a grade of W will not 

be assigned after midquarter. 
WF  withdrawn failing. The grade of WF is indicated 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 fulfill all course requirements. 

A student may audit a course by paying the audit fee. All 
requests for audit courses must be approved in writing by 
the instructor and Academic Dean. No new freshman stu- 
dent may audit any course during the first quarter of 
residence at LaGrange College. 

An I is a temporary grade. Normally it must be removed by 
the date indicated in the Academic Calendar. Failure to 
remove an I by the date set automatically makes the grade 
an F. A grade other than 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 any 
student who is under financial obligation to the College.

Academic 
Procedures 

REGISTRATION AND ACADEMIC ADVISERS 

All students must register in advance on the dates specified. 
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 41 

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 must 
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. Normally a student who withdraws after midquarter 
will not be assigned a W. Failure of a student to withdraw 
officially from the College normally will result in the assign- 
ment of WF's for all courses for which he is registered. 

A student who wishes to withdraw from the College must 
confer with the Dean of Students, the Director of Counseling 
Services, and the Academic Dean. 



ACADEMIC PROBATION REGULATIONS 

Students are placed on academic probation when the quality 
of work is such that progress toward graduation is in jeop- 
ardy. The purpose of probation is warning; it is not penalty. 
Students on probation and their parents shall be notified 
and the regulations governing probation shall be called to 
their attention. 

Students in the freshman class (fewer than 45 quarter hours 
of credit) who fail to maintain a 1.3 cumulative grade-point 
average at the end of any quarter for which they are enrolled 
will be placed on academic probation. For sophomores (fewer 
than 90 quarter hours of credit) a 1.65 cumulative grade- 
point average is required; for juniors (fewer than 135 quarter 
hours) and seniors (135 quarter hours and beyond) a 2.0 
cumulative grade-point average is required. In all cases, 
students have three quarters to remove their probationary 
status. Failure to do so in three quarters makes these students 
subject to exclusion. 

Students are also subject to exclusion for failure to earn at 

least five quarter hours of academic credit in any quarter, or 

for other valid academic reasons. In the case of part-time 

4 ^ students, the extent of application of these regulations will 

LaGrange ^ e at t ^ e dj scret j on f the Academic Dean. Normally, all 

College applications of the regulations will be based upon a fifteen 

quarter-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 3.50 to 3.74 
may be granted the A.B. degree cum laude or

RELIGION AND PHILOSOPHY 

The Department of Religion and Philosophy has a twofold 
purpose: to afford students the opportunity to study and 
investigate the role of religion in human existence; and to pro- 
vide for those interested a basis for further study and for 
selection of positions in church-related vocations. The Depart- 
ment is aware of the increasing demand that pre-theological 
students be prepared to enter seminary at the graduate level 
in their studies and at the same time have a broad cultural 
orientation.

electing Area V of the General Requirements. However, stu- 
dents may choose other courses in the Department of Religion 
and Philosophy as electives, but such courses will not be con- 
sidered as satisfying General Requirements unless and until 
Religion 101, or Religion (103-104) is completed. 

A major in Religion consists of a minimum of 40 hours selected 
from the course offerings in Religion, excluding General Re- 
quirements. In addition, a minimum of 20 hours should be 
taken from the following courses in related disciplines: English 
343; History 372; Philosophy (any course); Psychology 321, 350,

NURSING 



PROFESSOR IIOGAN 
ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR HART 

The purpose of the Associate Degree Program in Nursing is 
to prepare men and women in a collegiate program for careers 
in nursing. The graduate is prepared to function at the staff 
nurse level in hospitals, clinics, and other health care agencies. 
Upon successful completion of the State Board Examinations 
the graduate becomes a registered nurse. He may seek employ- 
ment, continue in nursing education at another college or 
university, or complete the requirements for a Baccalaureate 
Degree in another area of study at LaGrange College. 

The program functions within the general policies of the 
College. Opportunity to pursue the nursing program is offered 
to applicants meeting the requirements of both the College and 
the nursing program. In addition to other forms the applicant 
must submit a birth certificate, physical and dental examination 
forms, and two recommendations from former instructors. In 
the case of the older applicant recommendations from former 
employers are acceptable. A personal interview with a member 
of the nursing faculty is required. 

The program begins in the fall quarter, and nursing courses 
are taught in sequence. Requirements for graduation are com- 
pletion of the curriculum as outlined with a minimum grade of 
"C" in each nursing course, and an overall quality point average 
of 1.9 or above. 

In addition to the fees listed elsewhere the nursing student 
will need to provide for transportation to the clinical areas, pur- 
chase uniforms and accessories (approximately $100.00), and 
purchase books.
