May 22-25 Commencement. May 23 Meeting of Alumnae Association. 5 I, , upon my honor do hereby pledge myself to honesty in academic work and in student relations. I promise to cooperate with the community in maintaining high standards of citizenship by upholding the Constitution, By-laws, and Regulations of the Student Government Association. I further promise to help my fellow students to maintain, the ideals of this insti'ution by calling her attention to any misconduct on her part. I understand that a plea of ignorance will not excuse my failure to keep this pledge. 6 FOREWORD The Student Government Association, based on powers and laws granted by the President and Faculty, has control of all matters pertaining to the conduct and social life of the students. Each student should learn to appreciate that the least disregard of the rules on her part means extra care upon her fellow students, who, though conscientiously as- suming office under the Association, have yet come to col- lege to enjoy and make use of the advantages that La- Grange College offers. The life and work of the college is based on the Honor System, and this system applies not only to the rules and regulations concerning conduct, but to scholastic work as well. To learn to live honorably and unselfishly in a communi- ty and to share in the responsibility of the government is a part of the broader education for which we come to college. We ask of each student her hearty cooperation. We hope our Student Government Association will succeed in helping its students be intelligent citizens and thinking individuals. 7 OFFICERS OF STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION President Mary Baldwin Vice-Presidents Louise Donnan, Elizabeth Harrison, Patrica Barbour Secretary Mary Nell Evans Treasurer .Pauline Crowell Honorary Member __ Helene Sloan Senior Representative .Virginia Purgason Junior Representative Kathryne Hays Sophomore Representative Doris Williams Freshman Representative To be elected S CONSTITUTION Whereas, we, the students of LaGrange College, desire to assume individual and community responsibilities in the life and conduct of the College, thereby manifesting our loyalty, we do hereby, in accordance with the charter grant- ed by the Faculty, organize ourselves into an association based upon the system of honor, with a pledge to uphold the ideals in its laws.

When you come to LaGrange, you not only enjoy the customs handed down through the years, but you have a share in adding to the traditions of your Alma Mater. The college will honor the new students at a formal entertainment in the fall. The Freshman-Junior wedding takes place when the Freshmen receive their privileges. "V Installation service is held during the first month fcr the new girls. The Juniors choose one or more Freshmen "sisters/' The local sororities, which every one has the privilege to join, provide social activities for the girls; bids are sent out at a time designated by Inter-Sorority Council. The Y. W. C. A. sends Thanksgiving baskets to several needy families in LaGrange. The Y. W. C. A. has a Christmas service for the ser- vants. Students are expected to give a small gift to their wash woman. On the night before Christmas holidays, college girls smg Christmas carols around town. The Sophomore class is responsible for the daisy chain for Class Day exercises. They also give a tea for their "sister class" afterwards. The Seniors sing to the Underclassmen at midnight on Commencement Sunday. 22 HINTS TO FRESHMEN Begin well. We're here to help you, and you to help yourself. Remember we do not know all you can do, so show us by going out for all college activities. The student Government is to help you, not catch you. Remember that we have all been Freshmen ourselves, and don't hesitate to call on us. LaGrange has the honor system in Student Government. If you don't know, ask. Curious Freshmen make wise Sophomores. The faculty is waiting to like you, so give them the op- portunity. The Dean's List is a place of honor. Always introduce your guests to the Dean, of Women. When leaving college "sign out" and when returning "sign in." It pays. This is the place to make friends, so don't go around with one girl exclusively. Remember that you reflect your home. Remember that you are here to work. Each neglected task makes the next one harder. Honor is too dear to be compromised for popularity, or for the fear of being unpleasant. Remember that your health is important; take care of it. Don't come to school prejudiced; you'll like it. A freshman who can smile will go further than one who cannot. You'll never like anything until you try it. Pay on time all dues. You are not a full fledged mem- ber of any organization unless you do. 23 Don't be afraid to make mistakes. You can be a Fresh- man only once. Remember to read the bulletin boards each day. Every one needs a white dress. Remember that appropriate street clothes should be worn in town. Begin well. Bad work the first semester may handicap you through the whole year. PLEASE REMEMBER To see the Dean of Women during her office hours. Not to leave the dining hall until excused by the hos- tess of the table. To aid in keeping the college and the grounds in order. Class spirit is fine, but college spirit is better. To clean your room each morning. That absolute quiet and courteous attention is expect- ed in chapel. That your vote is an expression of your opinion and should be cast with careful and consideration. Not to talk from dormitory windows. Dress formally for concerts and public recitals. Do not appear on the campus in shorts, swim suits, or house coats. Carry Coca-Cola bottles to senior store. Do not drink Coca-Cola's or eat in lobbies, on porches, or in. the library. Any library book checked out on your name for an- other student, if not returned at the proper time, will run up a fine for you. Let your friends check out books for themselves. 2.4 OFFICE HOURS OF DEAN OF WOMEN 8:3010:00 A. M. 1:302:00 P. M. 6:307:00 P. M. Sunday Hours 12:301:00 P. M. 1:302:30 P. M. 5:30 6:00 P. M.

High aloft we hold thy banner, Ever loyal, true; Hail to thee our Alma Mater, Hail to thee LaGrange. In thy mighty grove of learning, Wisdom's path weVe sought; High upon thy lofty hilltop Visions have we wrought. From our hearts we sing the chorus. Let the sound prolong! Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Hail to thee, LaGrange. L. C. ON THE HILL Oh! It's L. C. on the Hill That we love and always will, Because she has our hearts and spirits too, She spurs us on in all we do. Oh, we respect her and her past. May her glory ever last.
