About LaG range College Purpose and Objectives The fundamental purpose of LaGrange College, a church-related institution fostering Christian values, is to provide an education grounded in the liberal arts which will open students' minds to the adventure of higher learning and will enable them to discover what is excellent in life. Its aim is to produce graduates prepared to accept responsibilities of leadership in contemporary society, who approach the opportunities as well as the problems of modern life with depths of knowledge, understanding, and feeling, and with sound perspectives of time, place, and circumstance. To fulfill this purpose the College offers to its students opportunities to gain knowledge and experience in the arts and sciences that will stimulate interest, create enlightenment, and promote further inquiry; to develop vocational goals; and to begin related preparation. To achieve its objectives the College strives to attract students who, through scholastic achievement and personal motivation, have indicated their ability and desire to undertake a college pro- gram, and who recognize and acceptthe purpose and objectives of the College; to maintain a professionally competent faculty whose members provide leadership in teaching-learning experiences, and who serve as scholarly models for student development through intellectual and cultural attainments and pur- suits, through high standards of character, and through constructive involve- ment in campus and community life; to provide flexible programs' which will inspire students to attain maxi- mum intellectual development, and which will broaden outlooks on life; to help each student to know himself, and to develop as a physically healthy and emotionally, socially, and spiritually mature person; to emphasize undergraduate liberal education foremost, but also to offer within the liberal arts context certain compatible professional and pre- professional curricula, and to offer graduate studies at the master's level to meet special needs within the limits of the resources of the College; to lead in the academic inquiry into various facets of contemporary soci- ety and to exert a constructive influence in the community through intellectual, cultural, and social leadership by offering educational opportunities to area citizens, and by encouraging faculty, staff, and student participation in commu- nity affairs; to promote growth in resources at a rate which will preserve the eco- nomic well-being of the College, support existing educational programs, facili- About LaGrange College tate changes in programs to meet changing needs, and sustain improvement in quality. LaGrange College seeks to attain these objectives for all who aspire to a col- lege education and admits students of any race, color, creed, sex, or national and ethnic origin, and grants to each student all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available by the College. It does not discriminate with respect to such matters in the administration of its educational policies, admissions procedures, scholarship and loan programs, or athletic and other school-administered activities. Adopted by Faculty, Administration, and Board of Trustees, 1981 . History and Description The history of LaGrange College is closely associated with the history of the City of LaGrange and Troup County. When the vast tract of land lying between the Flint and Chattahoochee Rivers was secured by the Indian Springs Treaty of 1825 and was opened for settlement in 1827, one of the five counties formed on the western border of the state was named Troup in honor of Governor George Michael Troup. An act was passed by the Georgia Legislature on December 24, 1827, provid- ing for the selection of a county seat. It was named LaGrange after the country estate of the Marquis de Lafayette, American Revolutionary War hero who had visited the region in 1825 as the guest of Governor Troup. The site for the town of LaGrange was purchased in 1828 and the town was incorporated on December 18, 1828. On December 26, 1831, the charter for the LaGrange Female Academy was granted at the state capitol, then in Milledgeville. In 1831 Andrew Jackson was president of the United States. Abraham Lincoln was 22 years old. The Creek Indians had been moved out of this area of the state only six years earlier. The only other college in the state was Franklin Col- lege, now the University of Georgia. In 1847 the charter for the school was amended and the school became The LaGrange Female Institute, with power to confer degrees. The name was changed to LaGrange Female College in 1851 and in 1934 it was changed to LaGrange College. The college became officially co-educational in 1953. The first location of the school was in a large white building at what is now 406 Broad Street. The school moved to its present location "On The Hill," the highest geographical point in LaGrange, after the construction of the building now known as Smith Hall in 1842. The college was sold to the Georgia Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South in 1856. Today it is an institution of the North Georgia Conference of The United Methodist Church. 8 About LaCrange College Strong in the liberal arts, LaGrange College has an outstanding reputation in eight pre-professional programs, including pre-medical and allied fields, pre- law, pre-theology, and engineering. LaGrange College offers the Bachelor of Arts degree with twenty-one majors, the Bachelor of Business Administration with three concentration areas, and the Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science. The Master of Business Administration degree and the Master of Education degree in Early Childhood are offered. Associate of Arts degree is offered in eight areas. LaGrange College operates on the quarter system. In addition to the day schedule of classes in the fall, winter and spring quarters, there is an evening session. There are also both day and evening sessions in the summer. The college draws more than half of its student body from Georgia. With students from more than one-third of the states and from several foreign coun- tries, the college has a cosmopolitan and international representation which in- cludes various religious and ethnic backgrounds. While proud of its heritage, the college continues to add to and improve its curriculum and facilities to meet the needs of its students today. LaGrange Col- lege originated the plan for students to complete fall quarter before Thanksgiv- ing and have a 40-day holiday break. Georgia's leader in granting academic credit through the College Level Examination Program, the college also offers travel seminars, field study programs and internships. The drama department has a resident summer stock theatre company at Callaway Gardens, nearby resort in Pine Mountain. Students in the college's nursing division receive supervised training in many area medical facilities. Campus art exhibitions, lec- tures, concerts, varsity and intramural sports add to the cultural enrichment and recreational opportunities offered by the college. The college is located in the town of LaGrange, Georgia, which has a popula- tion of 28,000. 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 and marina within the city limits of LaGrange. Accreditation As a coeducational, four-year liberal arts college, LaGrange College is fully accredited by the Commission on Colleges Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, approved by the Methodist University Senate, and has member- ship in the National Association of Independent Colleges and universities, the National Association of Methodist Colleges, the Georgia Association of Col- leges, 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 college graduates meeting requirements in early childhood, middle About LaGrange College school, or secondary education, has awarded highest approval to LaGrange College's program of teacher education. The National League for Nursing, the officially recognized agency for associ- ate degree nursing programs by the Council on Postsecondary Accreditation, has awarded (highest) accreditation to LaGrange College's nursing program. Sessions of the College The College operates on the quarter system. Each quarter is about ten weeks long. There are four quarters: fall, winter, spring and summer. In the summer quarter, day classes are divided into two five-week terms. A student may elect to attend either or both of the summer sessions. Evening classes in the summer quarter run continuously through the summer quarter. Both day and evening classes are available during each of these four quarters. The day and evening classes are sessions of the same academic pro- gram; however, with the exception of a limited number of majors it is necessary to attend day classes at some time in order to complete degree requirements. 10 The LaGrange College Campus Library The William and Evelyn Banks Library, a modern air-conditioned academic learning center, provides up-to-date resources to support and enrich the curriculum and to meet informational needs. The Library provides more than 86,000 volumes of books and bound periodicals, microfilm, micro- cards, filmstrips, audio-cassettes and records. Additionally, the Library subscribes to six newspapers. The Library is open seven days a week for a total of 77 hours per week, and is staffed by three professional librarians, three para-professional assis- tants, and many student assistants. Group study areas and a seminar room for meetings are available for student and faculty use. The Library is a member of the Southeastern Library Network (SOLINET). The book collection is strengthened by substantial contributions. The Bascom Anthony Book Collection has been endowed by Dr. Mack Anthony in memory of his father. The Hubert T. Quillian Book Collection is supported through substantial gifts by the Rotary Club of LaGrange. The Kate Howard Cross Fund is supported through contributions from alumni in honor of Miss Kate Howard Cross. The Bannister R. Bray Book Collection has been endowed by the Reverend Vivian L. Bray in memory of hisfather. The learning process is enhanced at LaGrange College by the Library's special services to students and faculty. Reading, reference, and inter-library loans assistance, by professionally trained librarians, is readily available. The microforms collection includes the complete New York Times from 1851 and many other periodicals. The Irene W. Melson Room, formerly the Special Collections Room, houses many first editions, as well as the Lafayette Collections. Also included are the Florence Grogan papers and first editions of outstanding publications of LaGrange College alumni and students. Cason J. Callaway Science Building Built in 1972.

ACADEMIC ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Admission to the Freshman Class: Prior to enrolling, an applicant is expected to complete requirements for graduation from an approved high school. 15 Admissions A total of 15 units is required with a minimum of 11 units within the following areas: English 4 Social Studies 3 Mathematics 2 Science 2 LaGrange College students come from a diversity of public and private sec- ondary school backgrounds. Preference is given to applicants who have had strong academic preparation in high school. A typical matriculant will have completed: English 4 Social Studies 3 College Preparatory Mathematics (Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, etc.) 3 Science 3 Foreign Language 2 Desirable electives include additional units of Language, Mathematics, or Science. A basic understanding of Computer Science is also encouraged. Scores from either the SAT (administered bytheCollege Entrance Examination Board) or ACT (administered by the American College Testing Program) are re- quired of all freshman applicants. Test results should normally be sent to LaGrange College in November, December, 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. LaGrange College predicts a student's grade point average using a formula which takes into account verbal and math scores on the SAT and the student's high school grade point average. Students are admitted as "clear accept" if they are predicted to be successful in the academic programs of LaGrange Col- lege. Clear Accept: The majority of LaGrange College students are accepted under the clear accept category. Early Admission: Early admission is possible for students who will have com- pleted 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 16 Admissions 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 com- posite 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 required of all early admissions 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 lack sufficient challenge, LaGrange College has adopted a policy for Joint Enrollment at both the College and the student's high school. To be eligible, a student must meet the dear- accept standard of the Admission policy and be recommended in writing by the proper authority at the student's high school. On-Trial Program: This program is for applicants who are unable to qualify for dear-accept admission to LaGrange College, but who appear to have the potential to succeed. All courses taken are for full credit. Students in this pro- gram must earn a grade point average of 1 .0 during the first quarter or in the first 1 5 hours of college work. Further information is available from the Director of Admissions. Transfer Students: A student who has been in attendance at another institu- tion 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 LaGrange College General Requirements if the A.A. Degree included courses in Math and English. A student may be accepted on probation under the standard probation regulations. All records, including transcripts of all college work attempted, must be complete before the student is admitted to LaGrange College. Applicants may enroll at the beginning of any quarter.

While the foreign students' number is never very large, the College has developed special programs for many of these students. Admission as a foreign student requires a TOEFL examination with a minimum score of 450 for students for whom English is not their first language. Also required are translated and certified documents attesting to academic per- formances in secondary school and university, if applicable. The Director of Admissions should be contacted for the current interpretation of the regula- tions concerning obtaining a Student Visa. If the prospective student is in the United States, an interview at the College is desirable and may often be substituted for a TOEFL score.

Student earnings for work performed are computed at the end of each month, and the student is paid by check. Such checks are issued on the 10th of the following month and placed in the student's mail box. Payment of quarterly charges may not be deferred until work-study checks are processed. 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.

Prior to the Fall 1 985 academic term, a supplemental student loan program, developed by the Association of Private Colleges and Universities in Georgia, is expected to be implemented. LaGrange College will participate in the program and expects to have funds available for loans to qualified students in amounts not less than $1 ,000. Interest rates and repayment terms for the loans have not been determined, but it is believed that the terms will be attractive and in many cases more favorable than terms which are available otherwise. The maximum family income for eligibility has been set tentatively at $75,000, making this pro- gram available to many families not now eligible for other programs. Students who are interested in applying for a student loan or who would like to have more information, please contact the Financial Aid Office. WORKOPPORTUNITIES Students may be assigned work through the College Work-Study Program and the College Student Aid Program as part of their financial assistance. Assign- ments are all on-campus with department and administrative offices. Local businesses employ students in part-time jobs. Such employment is usually arranged by the student and not the College. Students wishing to apply for any type of assistance should apply for "financial aid" rather than for a specific scholarship, loan, or job. Application blanks may be obtained by contacting the Director of Financial Aid, LaGrange College, 601 Broad Street, LaGrange, Georgia 30240-2999. 29 *, mm 3 Student Development Student Development Services is concerned with providing those services which assist individuals in their personal growth.

A senior is defined as a student who has successfully completed at least 135 quarter hours of academic work and who has completed the general re- quirements. All non-dormitory students must have a "Request for On-campus Residence Exemption Form" on file in the Student Development Office. The ruling of the Office of Student Development on all such exemptions shall be final. Students, other than freshmen, are assigned rooms of their choice in areas designated for upperclassmen. Freshmen, in so far as facilities permit, are as- signed with their requested roommate in college housing designated for first year students. The college reserves the right of final approval of all room and residence hall assignment. Also, the college reserves the right to move a stu- dent from one room or residence hall to another room or residence hall during the year. ROOM DEPOSIT A room deposit of $50 is required of all resident students. The deposit is not a prepayment to be applied to residence hall charges but will remain on deposit with the college to be refunded, provided the student's account with the col- lege is cleared, upon one of the following: (1) change of status from resident student to commuter student, (2) formal withdrawal, or (3) graduation. All re- quests for refund of deposit must be made on the appropriate form within thirty days of leaving the residence hall, otherwise the room deposit will be forfeited. Complete residence information and regulations can be found in "Housing on the Hill," the residence hall guidebook available from the Student Develop- ment Office. RESIDENCE GOVERNMENT/ACTIVITIES Each housing unit has a hall council which functions as a governing body and also as a coordinating committee to plan activities within the residence halls such as open houses, movie nights, decorating contests and other special events. 32 Student Development Student Government Activities The Student Government Association exists to serve as a medium for student expressions, to coordinate campus activities, to promote good citizenship and to govern within the parameters granted by the President of the College. The SGA is an important part of student life. Upon matriculation into the college, a student automatically becomes a member of the association. All students are encouraged to become active members, so that the association is a truly representative body of student thought and opinion, voicing the needs and concerns of the student body. The SGA is charged with responsibility of planning and presenting student entertainment programs. They sponsor concerts, dances, movies, ski trips and many other special events. Student publications are supported by the SGA; these include the newspaper, yearbook and magazine. All clubs and organizations are sanctioned by the SGA. These include: Social Sororities Social Fraternities Service Clubs Religious Organizations Honorary Organizations Alpha Omicron Pi Kappa Delta Phi Mu Zeta Phi Beta Delta Tau Delta Kappa Sigma Pi Kappa Phi Circle K Chi Epsilon Rotoract Hilltoppers Baptist Student Union Chi Epsilon Wesley Fellowship Alpha Mu Gamma (language) Alpha Psi Omega (drama) Pi Gamma Mu (social science) Sigma (science-math) Omicron Delta Kappa (leadership) Phi Tau Chi (religion) Psychology Honor Society 33 Student Development Departmental/Special Group Student Publications Phi Beta Lambda (business) Athletic Association (men & women) Student Nurses Association Choralaires LaG range College Band Art Student League Student Education Association ABC Association of Black Collegians The Quadrangle (yearbook) The Hilltop Newspaper (paper) The Scroll (magazine) Hilltopics, the student handbook is published by the SGA and contains guidelines and regulations for successful campus life. Athletics LaGrange College athletic teams are known as The Panthers. College colors are red and black. Teams compete with those of other similar size institutions in women's volleyball, softball and tennis and men's basketball, soccer, baseball and tennis. The athletic program is affiliated with the National Association of Inter- collegiate Athletics (NAIA) and is assigned to District 25. This affiliation permits LaGrange College athletes to receive state, regional and national recognition for their accomplishments. Intramurals The aim of the intramural programs is to provide each student with the op- portunity to participate in his/her favorite type of competition and to explore and enjoy sports that may be new to him/her. There is a wide range of in- tramural activities to choose from year round that includes volleyball, basket- ball, softball, tennis, badminton and many others. In addition the college main- tains a well-equipped exercise room for the use of individuals and groups. Traditional Activities Homecoming festivities Fall weekend and featuring concert, parade and culminating with crown- ing of Homecoming Queen at an- nual dance. 34 Student Development Ski Weekend SGA-sponsored ski trip to Tennessee or North Carolina Honors Day Spring Fling packed with activities, step-sing and dance Dorm Daze Quarterly events planned exclusively for residence students Greek Week Week of activities centering around campus Greek life Black History Week Week of activities focusing on Black Heritage Student Conduct LaGrange College, as a church-related college, is committed to an honorable and seemly standard of conduct. As an educational institution the college is concerned not only with the formal in-class education of its students, but also with their welfare and their growth into mature men and women who conduct themselves responsibly as citizens. Regulations of the college are formulated to meet changing student needs within the framework of college policy. These regulations become effective when the student enrolls. Some regulations may not be agreeable to everyone because they have been formulated to meet the needs of the entire group. This however, does not lessen the individual's obligation to uphold them. Regula- tions do not have as their primary purpose the punishment of the individual. The regulations are formulated to insure the right of all community members to have the best possible living and learning conditions. The college reserves the right to dismiss at any time a student who, in its judg- ment, is undesirable and whose continuation in the school is detrimental to himself or his fellow students. Furthermore, students are subject to federal, state and local laws as well as college rules and regulations. A student is not entitled to greater immunities before the law than those en- joyed by other citizens generally. Students are subject to such disciplinary ac- tion as the Administration of the College may consider appropriate, including possible suspension and expulsion for breach of federal, state or local laws, or college regulations. This principle extends to conduct off-campus which is likely to have adverse effect on the college or on the educational process or which stamps the offender as an unfit associate for the other students. A com- plete description of student conduct policies, rules and regulations can be found in Hilltopics, the student handbook. 35 Student Development Student Health Services Under the Student Health Program resident students are provided care by a registered nurse in the student day clinic. The nurse is on duty from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and for emergency calls at other times. The nurse assists the students in securing a physician if needed. The services of the nurse and the use of the day clinic are available to dormitory students only. Charges for X-rays, prescriptions, hospital charges, and fees of physicians or surgeons to whom a student is referred are the responsibility of the student. Private nurses and personal physicians must be paid for by the student. All students must have proof of medical insurance. For those not having coverage through individual or group plans, LaGrange College makes available accident and sickness coverage through a private carrier at reasonable rates. Application forms are available at registration or through the Business Office. Orientation A highlight for new students is a program of Orientation introducing them to campus life at LaGrange College. Activities and programs during Orientation give administration, faculty and returning students an opportunity to welcome all new students. Faculty, student development staff, administration and stu- dent leaders conduct programs to acquaint new students with the academic, co-curricularand social life of the college. Career Resource Center The Career Resource Center is located in the Student Development Office complex. It contains up-to-date career-related materials, occupational informa- tion, and a microcomputer with programs to assist students discover their oc- cupational interests. Counseling and Testing Counseling is available to LaGrange College students in a variety of areas.

The Office of Student Development also administers the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), and the College Level Examination Program, as part of the College's 36 Student Development Advanced Placement Program. The Miller Analogies is also available for graduate students. In addition, information about other national testing pro- grams, e.g. as the Graduate Record Exam (GRE) and the National Teacher Exam (NTE) is available in this office. Leadership Program The Leadership Program exists to provide a central focus for the study of the contribution, role, and impact of leadership in our society. The program offers LaGrange College students an opportunity to prepare themselves broadly for leadership roles. The Leadership Program is designed to integrate leadership in- terests, needs, and contributions into existing educational programs at LaGrange College. The Program in Leadership consists of courses and non-credit activities. Any student in the College may earn this certificate by acquiring 37 quarter hours in the course areas listed below. With careful planning, most students can earn the Certificate in Leadership by taking courses they already need to satisfy re- quirements for the baccalaureate degree. Since the Leadership Certificate re- quirements involve both lower and upper division courses as well as non-credit activities, it is advantageous for students to plan their Leadership course as early as possible and incorporate it into their general program of study. The Certificate Program in Leadership consists of the following courses: (A grade of C or better is required in each course.) Required Spc 105 Speech Fundamentals (5) Psy 200 Interpersonal Communication (2) Eng 101 Readings and Composition I (5) (or an acceptable score on the Test of Standard Written English, a subtest of the Scholastic Aptitude Test) Ethical Basis of Leadership (choose one) Rel 101 Judaic-Christian Heritage (5) Rel 102 -Christian Ethics (5) Rel 110 Religious Dimensions of Human Behavior (5) Phi 149 Introduction to Philosophy (5) Social Processes (choose one) Soc/PSc 302 - Social Change (5) His 307 Social & Intellectual History of the United States (5) Psy 321 Social Psychology (5) 37 Student Development Organizational Leadership (choose one) BuA 371 Principles of Management (5) BuA 376 Managing Human Resources (5) BuA 391 Managing the Small Business (5) CJu 103 Police Administration (5) Practical Leadership Skills (choose one) HPR 305 Psychology of Coaching (5) HPR 31 3 - Recreational Leadership (5) Spc 322 Persuasion (5) Spc 324 Discussion and Group Leadership (5) Summary Course (required) Psy 495 Special Projects in Leadership Training (5) When courses from the above listed areas have been completed, the student will enroll in a five quarter hour course aimed at pulling all this information together. This course may be either a practicum in the student's area of interest or a project decided upon jointly by the student and the professor supervising the course. In either case, exposure to the process of making decisions and having them carried out will be a major part of this experience. Dr. Kraemer is in charge of the academic portion of the program. Students desiring to enter this program should consult with Dr. Kraemer early in their academic career. Each quarter, at least one non-credit leadership seminar activity will be scheduled by the Office of Student Development for students participating in the Leadership Program. Topics such as Time Management, Assertiveness, Leadership Styles, Decision-making, Secrets of Success, Turning Problems into Opportunities, etc. may be used. To qualify for the Certificate in Leadership, a student would have enrolled in at least three different seminar activities. Record of participation will be kept and reported to the Registrar. The Dean of Student Development, Dr. Nabors, is the coordinator of these programs and should be contacted for the schedule of these activities. Transfer credit may be applied to the program as Dr. Kraemer approves. The Registrar will maintain records of completion of the credit and non-credit ac- tivities. The Dean of Student Development will maintain any anecdotal records and informal evaluations. Vehicle Registration To insure efficient control of traffic and parking on campus and the safety of all persons and vehicles, each vehicle must be registered and must have an af- fixed current decal. These decals are issued to students, along with a copy of existing parking regulations. 38 Student Development Student Review of Decisions Recognizing that decisions must be made and that some students may feel aggrieved by some decisions, LaGrange College provides the following pro- cedures: A student must first attempt to resolve an issue with the college staff member first rendering a decision. If this does not resolve the issue, a decision rendered by a college staff member may be appealed by a student as follows: I. Student Life: (a) A disciplinary decision rendered by a duly constituted student judicial board may be appealed to the Dean of Student Development. Disci- plinary decisions rendered originally by the Dean of Student Develop- ment may be appealed to the Student Affairs Committee. If a disciplin- ary decision is appealed by a student, it must be done in writing within twenty-four hours after receipt of the original decision. (b) Other grievances in the area of student life may be appealed to the Dean of Student Development. If the grievance involves an original decision rendered by the Dean of Student Development, the decision may be appealed to the Student Affairs Committee. II. Financial Aid: Decisions by the Director of Financial Aid may be appealed to the Student Affairs Committee. III. Academic Matters.

See the description of these programs in the Departments and Courses sec- tion, page Requirements for the A.A. Degrees Programs of study leading to the Associate of Arts degree are designed to meet these needs: (1) students who at present do not see a four-year degree program as an immediate objective; (2) out-of-school youths who have decided that college-level work with a degree potential, achievable in a shorter period of time, is a part of their career orientation; (3) mature people who desire college- level work for life fulfillment and need definite objectives as motivation; and (4) any employed person who seeks specific learning opportunities for career advancement. A 2.0 qualifying point average overall, as well as in course work taken at LaGrange College, is required for graduation. To be eligible for the degree, a student must have earned a cumulative average of 2.0 or better. To meet these needs LaGrange College has designed two-year curricula cul- minating in the A.A. degree in which a minimum of 30 quarter hours of credit must be earned in residence. A.A. DEGREE IN GENERAL STUDIES I. General Requirements as now constituted. II. Concentration of a minimum of 30 quarter hours in chosen field. Special Institutes/Gontinuing Education LaGrange College coordinates and initiates special institutes and continuing education activities. These activities include work with area and state churches, industries, health care facilities and businesses. For certain of these activities the College gives continuing education units (C.E.U.). 47 *l Academic Regulations Orientation and Counseling All new students are introduced to LaGrange College through an orientation program which takes place at the beginning of each quarter. The orientation program is designed to acquaint the new students with various phases of the life of the College including traditions, procedures, and regulations. It is believed that all students will profit from a proper introduction to the opportunities and responsibilities of college life. Freshman Seminar deals with the elements of learning and decision-making not covered in the traditional curricular structure that are essential to the stu- dent's educational process. These include the selection of courses, study skills, making long-term educational plans, placing course work in a broader context of student development, dealing with personal difficulties, and adjusting to the inadequacies in pre-college preparation. To help students at LaGrange College face these issues in an organized way, Freshman Seminar is taught. This one- hour course provides an opportunity for freshmen to work with faculty and other students in the consideration of issues designed to assist them in making decisions and in dealing with the many interrelated problems that have a bear- ing on their academic career. Academic Advising All students in LaGrange College are assigned academic advisers who are well versed in college requirements. In addition to assistance with current regula- tions and degree requirements, advisers can also provide useful information on long-range academic goals. Career planning, testing, and personal counseling are available from the staff of the Student Development Office. Registration and Academic Advisers All students must register on the dates specified. Failure to register on the proper dates may subject the student to a $20 late-registration fee. All registra- tion 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 plan- ning an academic program. However, the ultimate responsibility of meeting all requirements rests with the individual 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 ma- 49 Academic Regulations jor may be formally declared anytime after the student has earned 1 5 hours of credit. The student must declare his major in writing to the Registrar by the time he has earned 75 quarter hours of credit. The student will then be assigned 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 To withdraw from any course a student must confer with his instructor, his adviser, and the Academic Dean. Failure of a student to withdraw officially through the office of the Academic Dean normally will result in the assignment of a U. A student who wishes to withdraw from the College must confer with the Academic Dean and the Dean of Student Development. Withdrawals are not permitted the last week of class. 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 to warn. It is not a penalty. Students on probation will be notified and the regula- tions governing probation will be called totheirattention. Students in the freshman class (students with fewer than 45 quarter hours) and sophomores (students with fewer than 90 quarter hours) must maintain a cumulative grade-point average of 1.65 to avoid being placed on probation. For juniors (fewer than 1 35 quarter hours) and seniors (1 35 quarter hours and beyond) a 2.0 cumulative grade-point average is required. In most cases, students have three quarters to remove their probationary status. Failure to do so makes these students subject to suspension or exclusion. Students are also subject to suspension or 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 application 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 in- structor for any absence. An instructor may recommend that the Academic Dean drop from class with a grade of W or U any student whose absences are interfering with satisfactory performance in the course. 50 Academic Regulations Course Repetition A student is prohibited from repeating a course in which he has made a "C" or better (while enrolled at LaGrange College or any other institution) without the approval of the Dean of the College and the Academic Standards Commit- tee. Acceleration Students desiring to accelerate their college program may complete re- quirements in less than four academic years. This may be accomplished by at- tending 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), 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 bachelor degree cum laude or 2. have attained a quality point average of 3.75 to 3.89 may be granted the bachelor degree magna cum laude or 3. have attained a quality point average of 3.90 to 4.0 may be granted the bachelor 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. Academic honors at graduation are awarded only to students completing the four-year program (effective with 1 985 graduates). Foreign Students Students who are on a Student Visa in the United States are subject to special regulations. As the institution which issues documents certifying student status, LaGrange College is subject to regulations or guidelines. Guidelines change; students should contact the Dean of the College for interpretation of such changes. The current interpretation is that students with Student Visas must be enrolled for a full academic load (at least 1 2 quarter hours) at all times. 51 Academic Regulations English proficiency is fundamental to a successful academic course at LaGrange College. Therefore, in addition to the minimum TOEFL score re- quired for admission, the College requires all students for whom English is a second language to enroll in and satisfactorily complete a two-quarter se- quence, Eng 01 0, 01 1 . Further, if it is apparent that a student's English continues to jeopardize a successful academic career, the Dean of the College may re- quire that a student attend a special, intensive English language course. If such a requirement is placed on a student, failure to attend the English language course can result in withdrawal of the Student Visa. 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 in- tended to be used as substitutes for any regular course offerings. Also, concur- rent enrollment in any two or more of these special programs is discouraged. INDEPENDENT STUDY In certain departments independent study courses are offered. These courses are limited to upperclass major and minor students who have completed at least two-thirds of their particular major or minor program, and who wish to pursue a special problem or course of reading beyond that taken up in any for- mal course and lying within the capabilities of the library and laboratories. In order to be eligible for independent study the student must have at least a 3.0 average in the specific field. Total credit which can be earned through indepen- dent study normally will not be more than 10 quarter hours. Written permis- sion to enroll in such a course must be obtained from the instructor, the head of the department concerned, and the Academic Dean. These courses carry the numbers 495 and 496. SENIOR HONORS PROGRAM Seniors with a cumulative quality point average of 3.5 or above may apply for participation in the Honors Program which is available in certain departments. This program carries the course number 499, with 5 quarter hours of credit in each participating department, with the designation "Honors Course." Appli- cations must be submitted in writing to the Academic Dean. Credit-by-Examination and Exemption Students may be eligible for credit and/or exemption in certain areas through the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) and other recognized testing procedures. Advanced placement credit is accepted for those students who 52 Academic Regulations present evidence from the high school that advance placement programs have been completed and who present scores of 4 or 5 on the advanced placement test of the College Educational Examination Board administered by Educational Testing Service. 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 are accepted in accordance with the policy governing transfer work when presented on official transcripts from ac- credited 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 Educa- tion. 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 corresponding reduction will be made in the total number of hours required for the degree. 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 com- plete the work during that quarter. This deferment must be given written approval in advance by the instructor and the Academic Dean. N no credit or non-credit W withdrawn. During the first three weeks a student may withdraw from a class with an "automatic" "W." After this trial period the student may withdraw, but the grade assigned, "W" or "U," will be at the discretion of the professor. U withdrawn failing. The grade of U is included in computing the grade- point average. O penalty failing. This grade is given for a breach of honor and is in- cluded in computing the grade-point average. T audit withdrawn X audit complete A student may register for a course on a non-credit basis, for which he pays full tuition. To have a grade of N recorded, he must fulfill all course require- ments. 53 Academic Regulations 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 Dean of the College. Only lecture courses may be audited. No new freshman student may audit any course during the first quarter of residence at LaGrange College. An / is a temporary grade. Normally it must be removed by the date indicated in the Academic Calendar. Failure to remove an / by the date set automatically makes the grade an F. A grade other than /, once submitted, may not be changed by an instructor except with the formal approval of the Academic Ad- visory 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. Transcripts are withheld for any student who is under financial obligation to the College. Requirements for Bachelor Degrees LaGrange College offers the Bachelor of Arts degree and the Bachelor of Business Administration degree. To obtain a second bachelor's degree, at least 60 additional quarter hours must be earned, beyond the first degree, in a minimum of three quarters. The minimum work required for graduation is 183 quarter hours and a 2.0 quality-point average overall, as well as in all course work taken at LaGrange College. To be eligible for the degree, a student must have earned a cumulative average of 2.0 or better and, must make application for the degree before the beginning of his final quarter. A student who does not earn a degree in sixteen full quarters or the equivalent may be denied further registration. A minimum of 1 5 quarter hours meets the academic load requirement for a full-time student. The maximum full load is 1 7 quarter hours; anything beyond is considered an overload. No student is permitted to enroll for more than 22 hours in any one quarter. Request to take an overload must be granted in the Dean's office. Quality points are earned as follows: A, 4; B, 3; C, 2; D, 1; F, 0. The quality- point average is computed by dividing the total quality points earned by the total hours attempted. If a student has received credit for a course and repeats that course, he receives no additional credit toward the degree. In computing the student's average, hours attempted and quality points are counted on all such attempts. Not more than 95 quarter hours of credit earned at a junior college are counted toward the degree. No credit is granted toward the degree for course work taken at a junior college after a student has attained junior standing. A transfer student is not given credit toward graduation for any Ds earned elsewhere. Academic averages are computed on work done only at LaGrange College. 54 Academic Regulations 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 approval from his academic adviser and the Academic Dean, be permitted to enroll as a transient student 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 requirements, credit earned in this manner will be considered as residence credit. Grades earned for transient work are not included in the cumulative grade average. Normally, after receiving an un- satisfactory grade in a course at LaGrange College, a student will not be given credit for repeating that course at another institution. Credit totaling 1 hours or more earned in this way during the last 90 hours or final 6 quarters precludes 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 Academic Dean. Such exten- sion or correspondence credit may in no case exceed 10 hours; however, not more than 5 hours earned in this manner may be applied toward the fulfillment of the General Requirements of LaGrange College. Any course or courses so taken must be completed and all grades recorded before the end of the stu- dent's final quarter, in order to be graduated that quarter. 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 1 35 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. Transcripts Students are entitled to two transcripts of their record free of charge. For other transcripts a fee of $2 each will be charged. No transcripts will be issued for any student under financial obligation to the College. Transcript requests must be made in writing to the Registrar well in advance of the time the transcript is needed. Transcripts will be issued promptly; however, atthebeginningand end of quarters some delay may be unavoidable. 55 Academic Regulations Student Review of Academic Decisions Decisions pertaining to the academic program which are originally rendered by a faculty member may be appealed, in writing, to the Dean of the College who shall seek in an informal conference to settle the grievance to the satisfaction of the two parties involved. If no resolution can be found, the Dean of the College will deliver the appeal to the Review Subcommittee of the Academic Standards Committee for its determination. Decisions pertaining to the academic program originally rendered by the Dean of the College may be appealed to the Review Subcommittee of the Academic Standards Committee. Graduation Requirement A student who enters LaGrange College under a given catalogue will be graduated under the requirements of that catalogue. If a student withdraws and re-enters more than four years later, he will graduate under the requirements of the catalogue in effect at the time of his re-entry. Students in their last year of college work must have an audit of their course credits and planned courses examined prior to registration for their final quarter in residence. This is called a "graduation petition." The major adviser and the Office of the Dean of the College assist the student in completing this petition. 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.

These pro- grams include, but are not necessarily limited to, preparation for the following areas. LAW The pre-law adviser is Dr. John W. Anderson of the History and Political Sci- ence Department. Students entering law school come from many and varied undergraduate programs from English to mathematics, business administration, history or political science. Therefore, it is not really possible to say which major serves as the best preparatory background. Almost every law school bulletin, however, suggests that entering students must have a strong background in history, political science and English as well as some preparation in economics, business, sociology, psychology and mathematics. The pre-law program of LaGrange College emphasizes the development of critical legal skills in in- dividual students to conduct research, think in terms of abstract ideas, and to present ideas and concepts in a clear, concise manner. DENTISTRY Dr. A. M. Hicks is the adviser. The pre-dental student should select a major as early as possible and work toward the B.A. degree. Some dental schools accept students with less than four years of college training, but most of them prefer a student with the baccalaureate degree. The pre-dental student should be familiar with the specific requirements set by the dental schools to which he plans to apply. There is some variation in the requirements of the various schools, but the minimum requirements set by most schools of dentistry are: Inorganic Chemistry with lab 10 quarter hours Organic Chemistry with lab 1 5 quarter hours Biology with lab 1 quarter hours Physics with lab 10 quarter hours English 10 quarter hours 59 Pre-professional and Co-operative Programs All applicants must complete the Dental Admission Test not later than the October testing preceding the year of desired entry. MEDICINE (M.D.) Dr. A. M. Hicks is the adviser. The pre-medical student should select a major as soon as possible and seek the B.A. degree. Medical schools rarely accept candidates with less than the baccalaureate degree. The student should familiarize himself with the requirements of the several medical schools to which he plans to apply. Requirements vary somewhat in the various medical schools, but the minimum requirements of most medical schools are: Biology with lab 15 quarter hours Inorganic Chemistry with lab 1 5 quarter hours Organic Chemistry 15 quarter hours Physics 15 quarter hours English 15 quarter hours Every applicant must take the Medical College Admission Test, preferably in the spring preceding the submission of his application to medical school, but no later than the fall of that year. VETERINARY MEDICINE Dr. A. M. Hicks is the adviser. The pre-veterinary student should be familiar with the specific requirements of the school to which he plans to apply. The minimum requirements set by most schools of veterinary medicine are as follows: A candidate must have completed at least 90 quarter hours of college credit by the end of the spring quarter before fall matriculation at the veterinary school. The B.A. degree is preferred. The following required courses must have been completed priortoentry into veterinary school. English 10 quarter hours Biology with lab 10 quarter hours Zoology or Botany 5 quarter hours Microbiology 5 quarter hours Biochemistry 5 quarter hours Inorganic Chemistry with lab 10 quarter hours Organic Chemistry with lab 1 quarter hours Animal Nutrition* 5 quarter hours The candidate must have worked with a veterinarian, and he must have had hands-on experience working with large and small animals. *Not available at LaGrange College 60 Pre-professional and Co-operative Programs Each applicant will be required to take the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) including the Advanced Biology Section and the Veterinary Aptitude Test. These tests should be taken by October or December of the year prior to probable admission to veterinary school. ENGINEERING Dr. Don Jolly is the adviser. LaGrange College has a pre-engineering program designed to provide the student with a broad liberal arts background while preparing the student for a professional engineering program. Dual degree programs in engineering have been established with Georgia Institute of Technology and Auburn University. Students accepted in the dual degree program will attend LaGrange College for approximately three academic years and then either Georgia Institute of Tech- nology or Auburn University for approximately two academic years. After completing the academic requirements of the two cooperating institutions, the student shall be awarded a bachelor's degree from LaGrange College and a bachelor's degree in engineering from either Georgia Institute of Technology or Auburn University. Dual degree candidates from LaGrange College are eligible to seek any of the following degrees from Georgia Institute of Technology: Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering Bachelor of Chemical Engineering Bachelor of Ceramic Engineering Bachelor of Civil Engineering Bachelor of Electrical Engineering Bachelor of Engineering Economic Systems Bachelor of Engineering Science Bachelor of Industrial Engineering Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering Bachelor of Nuclear Engineering Bachelor of Science in Textile Chemistry Bachelor of Science in Textiles Bachelor of Textile Engineering Bachelor of Science in Physics Dual degree candidates from LaGrange College are eligible to seek any of the following degrees from Auburn University: Bachelor of Aerospace Engineering Bachelor of Aviation Management Bachelor of Chemical Engineering Bachelor of Civil Engineering Bachelor of Electrical Engineering Bachelor of Industrial Engineering 61 Pre-professional and Co-operative Programs Bachelor of Materials Engineering Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering Bachelor of Textile Chemistry Bachelor of Textile Engineering Bachelor of Textile Management PHARMACY The pre-pharmacy general adviser is Dr. John Hurd.

Political Science 101 may be required, and electives in literature are suggested to make up 90 quarter hours of academic work. Co-operative Programs LaGrange College has a limited number of co-operative programs that are designed to meet student needs in specialized areas. The programs include the following areas. PHYSICAL THERAPY The pre-Physical Therapy adviser is Dr. John Hurd. Most schools which offer training in Physical Therapy award a Bachelor's degree after successful comple- tion of classroom and clinical work. Students are admitted to such programs after completion of 90 quarter hours of work including approximately 20 hours in Humanities, 20 hours in Math and Science, 20 hours in Social Science plus 30 hours in a major field such as Biology. Specific courses to prepare for admis- sion to individual schools should be selected in consultation with the adviser. OPTOMETRY The pre-Optometry adviser is Dr. John Hurd. Though selected students may be admitted to Optometry School after three years of preparation, most are ad- mitted after receiving Bachelors or Masters degrees. Optometry involves four years of study after admission to the program and in some areas also includes a brief internship. Majors in any academic area are acceptable though the stu- dent should include emphasis on the sciences. Preparation for admission to a specific school can be planned with the assistance of the adviser. ALLIED HEALTH SCIENCES The adviser for Allied Health Science preparation is Dr. John Hurd. Allied Health Sciences include Dental Hygiene, Dental Lab Technology, Medical 62 Pre-professional and Co-operative Programs Technology, Physical Therapy, Radiologic Technology, Respiratory Therapy among others. These programs require from 30 to 90 hours of General Educa- tion either within the program or prior to admission. A plan of preparation for one of the Allied Health Sciences can be arranged with the adviser. Cooperative LaGrange College-Troup County Area Vocational Technical School Program This cooperative arrangement between LaGrange College and Troup Tech results in an associate of arts degree from LaGrange College. Students must be accepted by both Troup Tech and LaGrange College. Students may attend either Troup Tech or LaGrange College during their first year. Upon comple- tion of the prescribed program of study of three or more quarters in length at Troup Tech and the certifying of that completion by the Troup Tech college coordinator and upon completion of the following courses at LaGrange Col- lege, the associate of arts degree is awarded by LaGrange College.

Johnson, T. Johnson, Jordan, Kraemer, Langford, Nabors, Williamson Assistant Professors Corless The Division of Education and Psychology offers courses in the following fields: Education, Health, Physical Education and Recreation, and Psychology. Majors are offered in Early Childhood Education, Middle Childhood Education, and Psychology. Master of Education degrees are offered in Early Childhood Education and Middle Childhood Education. The Division gives much attention to teacher education. Major emphasis is placed upon teaching in Georgia, since many LaGrange College graduates teach in this state. The Division, however, keeps abreast of variations in certifi- cation for other areas, in the event graduates contemplate teaching in another state. Fine Arts Professor Estes Associate Professor J. D. Lawrence Assistant Professors Brown, Estes, Schraft, Taunton, J. Williams, S. Williams The Fine Arts Division is comprised of the disciplines of Art, Drama and Speech, and Music. The departments of Art and Drama and Speech offer ma- jors in a variety of concentrations. A minor in Music is offered. The aims of the Fine Arts Division are to assist the general student to discover and to become involved in the beautiful and to understand its proper place in an enriched life; to provide a superior curriculum and rewarding activities for the major in each department; to contribute to the cultural life of the College and the community. Humanities Professors Hornsby, McCook, Naglee, Williams Associate Professors Bailey, Murphy, Pearson Assistant Professors Henry The Humanities Division is comprised of three Departments and offers in- struction in the following academic disciplines: English Language and Litera- ture; Modern Foreign Languages and Literature (French, Spanish, and German); Religion and Philosophy. 68 Departments and Courses The Departments within this Division attach primary importance to problems of knowledge and judgment. The studies are designed to promote scholarship and to cultivate intellectual interest. Students who wish to work toward a major within the Humanities Division may attain it in English, Spanish, or Religion and Philosophy. Nursing Assistant Professors Hickox, Kratina, Mintz M.K.Williams Instructors Bates, Saute r The nursing program provides correlation between theoretical and clinical aspects of nursing. Therefore, nursing courses have laboratory hours, as well as lecture hours. Laboratory hours provide students time to learn and apply the skills of nursing, and give them actual patient care experience in hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, and other health care facilities. Each laboratory hour equals three hours of actual experience. Some of the required non-nursing courses are pre- or co-requisites for the nursing courses and therefore must be successfully completed before or at the prescribed times in order to continue in the nursing sequence. Science and Mathematics Professors Cooper, A. M. Hicks, James, Jolly, Shelhorse, Shibley Associate Professors P. M. Hicks, Hurd, Riddle, Searcy The Division of Science and Mathematics offers training in biology, chemistry, computer science, physics, and mathematics. Major work in this division prepares a student for graduate work, teaching mathematics and science in secondary schools, and entry into the health profession schools (medicine, dentistry, paramedical specialties). Academic majors are offered in Biology, Chemistry, General Science, Mathematics, and Computer Science. Social Science Professors Taylor, Lowe, Mills Associate Professors Anderson, Gill, Harwell, Stevens Assistant Professors Burdett, Cafaro, Glover, McGaughey The Division of Social Science offers courses in the following fields: Business Administration, Economics, Geography, History, Political Science, and Sociology. Careful attention is given to education for both cultural and service values. Majors are offered in Business Administration, Economics, History, Political Science, and Social Work. 69 Departments and Courses Course Numbering System and Abbreviations The projected schedule of classes will be followed insofar as possible, but is subject to change.
