Philosophy of Education 5

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 institutions of higher learning which hope
to contribute to the preparing of human beings to meet successfully
the challenges and the ordeals of a change-oriented society must
necessarily be directed toward flexibility and bold experiment.

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 recognizes also the necessity for revitalizing
these bases to meet present-day needs, on the local, state, and na-
tional 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 endow-
ing him with a set of fixed and final notions. In the increasingly tech-
nological 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 experi-
ment 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 effective program
possible for assuring that he is "at home" in any environment, how-
ever 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 be-
came 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 in-
stitution of The United Methodist Church.

LOCATION

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 Chattahoochee River provides 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 mem-
bership 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 certificates upon col-
lege graduates meeting requirements in elementary or secondary
education, has awarded five-year (highest) approval to LaGrange
College's program of teacher education. A training program for
nurses on the Associate Degree level was initiated in 1973 with the
approval of the Georgia Board of Examiners.

A Master of Education degree was initiated in 1973 with the approval
of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Drama Theatre To be completed early 1975.

Student Affairs 9

Student Affairs

LaGrange College students are provided with excellent opportunity
for participation in a variety of student organizations. They may
serve the college community and find full, happy, and rewarding ex-
periences as well. Campus activities outside the classroom are edu-
cational and help to develop qualities of a mature person: initiative,
self-reliance, sense of responsibility, versatility, capacity for in-
dependent 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 intercollegiate competition
in basketball, baseball, tennis, golf, cross-country, track, volleyball,
and bowling. The College also 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 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 de-
nominational 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 College Chapel especially
for LaGrange College students.

Important events in the life of the campus are the Arthur H. Thomp-
son lectures and Religious Emphasis Series. The Arthur H. Thompson
Lecture Series brings to the campus scholars from many different
fields of knowledge. Religious Emphasis Series is conducted by a
minister.

10 LaGrange College

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 Board of Trustees of the College. He expressed
his philosophy 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 English at LaGrange College for 28 years.

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

THE ERNESTINE MAY DEMPSEY LECTURESHIP was provided
by alumna LaVerne Garrett in memory of her former English pro-
fessor who taught at LaGrange College, 1908-1914.

THE ERNEST AUBREY BAILEY LECTURESHIP honors the mem-
ory 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 repertory 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 Col-

Student Affairs 11

lege student performances also are of such quality that the students
perform both in LaGrange and in other communities. The students
also 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 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 absent more than one time during a quarter, he will be allowed
no assembly absences during his next quarter of attendance.

HOUSING REQUIREMENTS

LaGrange College is a residential college. Students not living at
home or with relatives are expected to live in the dormitories. Men
and women students may live 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. There are no housing facilities on
campus for married couples.

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 avail-
able.

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 in-
firmary are available to dormitory students only.

Charges for X-rays, prescriptions, hospital charges, and fees of phy-
sicians or surgeons to whom a student is referred are the respon-

12 LaGrange College

sibility 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

Responsibility for maintenance of high standards and honorable con-
duct 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 them-
selves as ladies and gentiemen 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 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 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 administrative officers is sufficient.

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 Committee. Each LaGrange College student par-
ticipates in the election of student officers.

The Student Government Association has three branches. An ex-
ecutive 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 Affairs 13

STUDENT CONDUCT

LaGrange College has high standards of conduct. Drinking, lying,
cheating, and stealing are not countenanced. In offenses involving
issues of honor, the Judicial Council of the Student Government As-
sociation shall determine involvement; the Judicial Council's recom-
mendations 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.

The possession or consumption on the LaGrange College campus of
any type of alcoholic beverage, drugs, or other intoxicants is forbidden.
The College does not condone the use of intoxicants or drugs off
campus, or at any off-campus activities of student social organiza-
tions. 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 prin-
ciple 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 acquaint the new
students with various phases of the life of the College including tra-
ditions, procedures, and regulations. It is believed that all students
will profit from a proper introduction to the opportunities and re-
sponsibilities of college life. Throughout their residence at LaGrange
College, students may secure ready counseling service in personal
matters from faculty advisers, the Dean of Students, the Assistant
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 na-
tional basis. The social life of the campus is conducted largely by the
fraternities and sororities.

14 LaGrange College

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 coordinate campus activities, to
promote better citizenship, to cooperate with the community, to up-
hold 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 Govern-
ment Association. Although office-holding in the Student Govern-
ment Association is restricted by specified scholastic standards, as a
democratic organization the Student Government Association
includes all members of the student body.

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

on the 10th of the following month and placed in the student's
mail box. These earnings are subject to state and federal income
taxes. Students are required to complete necessary forms before they
begin work assignments and should have their Social Security cards
when they arrive on campus.

For other transcripts a fee of $1 each will be charged. No grades or
transcripts will be issued for any student under financial obligation

advance of the time the transcript is needed. Transcripts will be issued
promptly; however, at the beginning and end of quarters some delay
may be unavoidable.

ADMISSIONS

It is the aim of LaGrange College to admit those students who dem-
onstrate that they can benefit from a liberal arts education. In the
selection of students, careful attention is given to the academic ability,
character, health, and personality of each candidate.

PROCEDURE FOR APPLYING FOR ADMISSION

An application for admission should be submitted when the student
decides he would like to attend LaGrange College. The application
should be completed at least one month prior to the beginning of the
quarter in which the entrance is desired. Applicants may enroll any
quarter.

To apply for admission, a student must submit the following items to
the Admissions Office:

1. Application Form

2. Transcript of all previous work

3. SAT or ACT scores, for freshmen

4. High School or College Evaluation Form

Students interested in LaGrange College are invited to visit the
campus and may schedule an appointment by contacting the Ad-
missions Office.

An applicant will be notified as soon as the Admissions Committee has
reached a decision. A room deposit of $50.00 for dormitory students,
or an acceptance fee of $25.00 for town students, should be made
within two weeks after acceptance. (This deposit, or fee, for a fall
quarter student, is refundable prior to May 1.) The deposit, or fee,
will be credited to the first quarter's expenses.

A student's acceptance is tentative, pending satisfactory completion
of work in progress. LaGrange College must receive notification of
successful completion of such work before acceptance is final.

ACADEMIC ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

ADMISSION TO THE FRESHMAN CLASS: Prior to enrolling, an
applicant should complete requirements for graduation from an
approved high school.

Preference is given to applicants who have had strong academic prep-
aration in high school. A minimum of 11 high school units must be
within the areas of English, Social Studies, Mathematics, and Science.
The following subjects are required or recommended.

English Four units required

Science Two units required; three units recommended
Social Studies Three units required

College Preparatory Mathematics (algebra, geometry, trigo-
nometry, etc.) Two units required; three units recommended
Foreign Language Two units recommended

Scores from either the SAT (administered by the College Entrance Ex-
amination Board) or ACT (administered by the American College
Testing Program) are required of all freshman applicants. Test results
should normally be sent to LaGrange College in November, Decem-
ber, or January of the last year in high school.

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 ADMISSION: Early admission is possible for students 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 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. An interview is re-
quired of all early admission students.

JOINT ENROLLMENT: Recognizing that there is an increasing

number of high school students beginning their 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

Administrative Regulations 29

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 ap-

plicants who are unable to qualify for regular admission to LaGrange
College, but who have the potential to succeed. Special advisement
and limits on extracurricular activities are required. All courses taken
are for full credit. 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 attendance 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, in-
cluding 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 LaGrange College as tran-
sient students. Approval of course work must be authorized on the Ap-
plication 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 nec-
essary 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 process an Application for Re-
admission. This form is available from the Admissions Office.

CREDIT-BY-EXAMINATION AND EXEMPTION

Beginning students may be eligible for credit and/ or exemption in
certain areas through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
and other recognized testing procedures. Participating departments
have established their own standards for granting exemption and/or
credit.

30 LaGrange College

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, in-
cluding USAFI correspondence courses and military service school
courses as recommended by the American Council on Education. One
activity course in Physical Education, up to a maximum of 3, will be
waived for each two months served in the Armed Forces; a corre-
sponding 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, As-
sociate of 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 183 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 General Requirements before the beginning of his final
quarter. A student who fails to earn a degree in sixteen full quarters or
the equivalent may be denied further registration.

A minimum of 15 quarter hours will meet the academic load require-
ment for a full-time student. The maximum full load shall be 17 quar-
ter 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 at-
attempted and quality points are counted on both attempts.

Administrative Regulations 31

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 La-
Grange 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, 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 ob-
taining prior written approval from his academic adviser and the Aca-
demic 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 residence re-
quirements, credit earned in this manner will be considered as resi-
dence credit. Credit totaling 10 hours or more earned in this way dur-
ing 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 correspondence during the 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 adviser and from the Aca-
demic 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 Re-
quirements 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 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 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.

32 LaGrange College

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 on 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 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 Re-
quirements of the College.

This course may be exempted only by those students who have scored 600 or
above on the verbal component of the SAT examination or its equivalent.

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

PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS OF STUDY: Pre-professional
programs available at LaGrange College include the following:

Dentistry

Medicine and

Pharmacy

Engineering

Allied Fields

Theology

Law

Optometry

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 satisfy-
ing requirements for a bachelor of arts degree. The prospective pro-

34 LaGrange College

fessional 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, most pro-
fessional 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 General
Requirements which apply to all students.

Students of outstanding ability who, after careful planning, are ac-
cepted for medical college upon completion of three years of under-
graduate 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 General
Requirements for the A.B. degree.

LaGrange College is one of the colleges accepted for Joint Enrollment
in Engineering by Georgia Institute of Technology. Prospective
engineers should consult the Division of Science and Mathematics
for details of this program.

REQUIREMENTS FOR THE A.A. DEGREE IN NURSING

The requirements for the Associate of 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

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 student 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 Coun-
cil, 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 37

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 assists the student
in planning an academic program. However, the ultimate re-
sponsibility of meeting all requirements rests with the indi-
vidual student.

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
student has earned 30 hours of 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 as-
signed to an adviser in the department in which he will major. A
student planning to pursue a program in Teacher Education must
make application in writing to the head of the Department of
Education at least by 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 withdraw 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 nor-
mally 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 must confer with
the Academic Dean and the Dean of Students.

38 LaGrange College

ACADEMIC PROBATION REGULATIONS

Students are placed on academic probation when the quality of work
is such that progress toward graduation is in jeopardy. 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 students, the extent of ap-
plication of these regulations will be at the discretion of the Academic
Dean. Normally, all 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 accom-
plished 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 preceding quarter, except that a student may take an overload
during one quarter of his senior year without respect to grade-point
average.

Academic Procedures 39

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

2. have attained a quality point average of 3.75 to 3.89 may be
granted the A.B. degree magna cum laude or

3. have attained a quality point average of 3.90 to 4.0 may be grant-
ed the A.B. degree summa cum laude.

At the end of each academic quarter, students who have maintained a
3.60 quality point average on a minimum of 15 quarter hours of work
will be placed on the Dean's List.

SPECIAL PROGRAMS

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 substitutes 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 students who have the
appropriate background and 90 quarter hours of earned credit. Per-
mission to enroll in this course must be obtained in writing from the
head of the department concerned and the Academic Dean.

Requirements are as follows:

1. Enrollment in Special Studies 399 is restricted for each student
to those areas where the student has completed at least 25
quarter hours.

2. Students on probation are not permitted to enroll in Special
Studies 399.

3. This program may not be utilized to permit a student to pursue a
course regularly offered.

4. No student is permitted to repeat as Special Studies 399 any
course for which he already has credit.

5. If the proposed enrollment of a student in Special Studies 399 is
in an area other than that of his major, such enrollment must
have the written concurrence of the head of the second depart-
ment.

ASSOCIATE PROFESSORS AMSTEEN, HART

The purpose of the Associate Degree Program in Nursing is to pre-
pare men and women in a collegiate program for careers in nurs-
ing. The graduate is prepared to function at the staff nurse level
in hospitals, clinics, and other health care agencies. Upon success-
ful completion of the State Board Examinations the graduate be-
comes a registered nurse. He may seek employment, 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 pro-
gram. In addition to other forms the applicant must submit a birth
certificate, physical and dental examination forms, and two rec-
ommendations 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 re-
quired.

The program begins in the fall quarter and nursing courses are
taught in sequence. Requirements for graduation are completion
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.
