About LaGrange 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 accept the purpose and objectives oftheCollege;

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-

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.

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
1 825 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.

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.

LaCrange 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
and Middle Childhood are offered. Associate of Arts degree is offered in five
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 25,000. 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

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.

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

prescribed units, and have a total of fifteen units. Also to qualify, a student must

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. Acceptable credit from a junior college is limited to 95 quarter hours.

Transient Students: Students currently enrolled in good standing at another
college, may enroll at LaGrange College as transient students. Approval of
course work must be authorized by the primary institution on the Application
for Transient Status which is available from the Admissions Office.

Special Students: Students not working toward a degree may register as spe-
cial students in any course for which they have the necessary prerequisites. An
application for Special Student Status may be obtained through the Admissions
Office. Students classed as Special Students may become Regular Students by
meeting requirements for regular admission.

17

Admissions

Readmission Students: Following an absence from LaGrange College of one
or more quarters, other than the Summer Quarter, any student who decides to
return must submit an Application for Readmission. This form is available from
the Admissions Office.

Foreign Students: In the past few years the College has hosted students from
Norway, New Zealand, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, Venezuela, Ghana, Thailand,
Canada, and Brazil. 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 500 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.

All LaGrange College undergraduate degree-seeking students taking 12 hours
or more who have been residents of the state of Georgia for twelve consecutive
months are eligible to receive a tuition equalization grant regardless of need.
The amount of this grant for 1985-86 is $775. State of Georgia Tuition Grants
MUST be applied for at registration in order to be processed within the time limit
set by the State. Failure to apply on time means the student will not receive the
State Tuition Grant and will personally have to pay the amount of the grant.

Depending on individual requirements, a student may expect to spend
$600.00 to $900.00 per year on books and personal expenses.

The above charges are applicable to an academic year which is three
quarters.

Summer Quarter costs and curriculum are available in a separate bulletin.

Nursing students should consult with the Nursing Division concerning re-
quired nursing supplies and their projected costs.

Financial Aid

Philosophy

LaGrange College believes that the student and family should contribute to
the educational expenses of attending college to the extent of their ability to do
so. When family resources do not meet the total costs of attending this institu-
tion, a financial need is established. We at LaGrange College will do all we can
to assist you in meeting that need.

General Information

Financial need is computed by using a standard need analysis system with
confidential information submitted by parents or self-supporting students. The
Financial Aid Form (FAF) administered by the College Scholarship Service is the
need analysis accepted by LaGrange College.

Applicants for financial assistance need not be accepted for admission to ap-
ply. However, the student must be accepted for enrollment before an official
aid award can be made. Financial aid awards are made for each academic
year. Therefore, students must apply for aid each year.

Procedure for Applying for Financial Aid

1 . Apply for admission to the college through the Admissions Office.

2. Submit the Financial Aid Form (FAF) to the College Scholarship Service for
processing as soon as possible after January 1 . This form may be obtained
from high school counselors or the Financial Aid Office at the college.

3. Submit the LaGrange College Financial Aid Application to the Financial
Aid Office. This form is automatically sent to all students who have been
accepted for enrollment by the Admissions Office.

4. All Georgia residents should complete and submit to the Financial Aid Of-
fice the Georgia Student Grant Application which allows students to ap-
ply for the Georgia Tuition Equalization Grant (for those attending private
colleges) and the Georgia Incentive Grant (which is based on need). This
form may also be obtained from high school counselors and the Financial
Aid Office at LaGrange College.

5. Transfer students from other colleges must submit a Financial Aid
Transcript from colleges attended previously whether or not financial
assistance was received. These forms may be obtained from the Financial
Aid Office at LaGrange College and must be returned prior to receiving
an aid award.

27

Financial Aid

Financial aid is awarded on an academic year basis. If funding permits, those
students receiving assistance during the academic year will be given first con-
sideration for summer awards.

Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress

The Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended by Congress in 1980, re-
quires that a student be maintaining Satisfactory Progress in the course of study
the student is pursuing in order to receive any Title IV student financial aid.
Satisfactory progress would be implemented throughout the entire course of
study prior to and including periods when a student receives Title IV financial
aid.

The minimum satisfactory progress requirements for all students, whether or
not they are receiving Title IV aid, are those academic requirements imposed
by LaGrange College on all registered students. Those requirements are stated
in the LaGrange College Bulletin section titled "Academic Probation Regula-
tions." Academic probation or suspension constitutes financial aid probation
or suspension as well. A student who has been suspended and is later readmit-
ted to LaGrange College may have financial aid reinstated pending approval by
the Financial Aid Appeals Committee and the availability of funds.

Beyond those minimum satisfactory progress requirements for all students,
there are some additional progress requirements for Title IV aid recipients:

Title IV Aid - Pell Grant

National Direct Student Loan
Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant
College Work Study Program
Guaranteed Student Loan
PLUS Loan

If a student accepts aid from any program listed above, the student must pass at
least the following number of cumulative credit hours based on full time status
(at least 12 quarter hours) during a sequence of three academic quarters (Fall,
Winter, Spring, for example).

Financial Aid

This means that students who audit or repeat courses, withdraw frequently
or take courses not related to a degree objective would not be considered as
making satisfactory progress toward graduation and thus would be subject to
loss of eligibility for financial aid.

A student in a dual degree program will be allowed five (5) quarters in addi-
tion to the eighteen (18) quarters normally allowed for completion. Information
on Satisfactory Academic Progress for a part-time student is available from the
Financial Aid Office.

To maintain eligibility for Title IV Federal Aid a student must meet all three (3)
criteria specified above (C.P.A., hours earned, and be within the specified time
frame).

In the event a student does not complete the required academic credit hours
within the specified time, the student cannot receive further financial assistance
from the federal programs until the required hours have been completed at the
student's own expense.

Conditions of Reinstatement

To be reinstated, a student must at his/her own expense earn the specified
number of hours to meet the minimum requirement or G.P.A. as specified
above. At such time as the student has met the requirements he/she must con-
tact the Financial Aid Office and request aid for subsequent quarters.

Appeal Procedure

A student may appeal the denial of financial assistance (with the exception of
the eighteen quarter time limit) if mitigating circumstances have occurred. This
appeal should be submitted in writing to the Dean of the College who will sub-
mit the request before a Financial Aid Committee. (This letter of appeal should
include (a) reason for failure to achieve the minimum academic requirements,
and (b) reasons why aid should not be terminated.) The Committee for purpose
of hearing the appeal shall convene within two weeks of the date of receiving
the appeal and shall inform the student of a decision within one week of the
hearing.

participates in this program and has funds available for loans to qualified
students in amounts not less than $1,000. Interest rates and repayment terms
for these loans in many cases are more favorable than terms which are
available otherwise. The maximum family income for eligibility has been set
approximately at $75,000, making this program 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 should contact the
Financial Aid Office.

WORK OPPORTUNITIES

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.

Student Development

Student Development Services is concerned with providing those services
which assist individuals in their personal growth. Its purpose is to provide
assistance which facilitates the development of the total person. At LaGrange
College, the emphasis is upon the intellectual, social and spiritual development
of each student.

"Student Services," the term most frequently used to describe Student
Development Services, involves a wide variety of programs and activities. The
broad range of available services is an outgrowth of complex student needs:
orientation, activities, student government, organizations, health services,
leadership development, personal and career counseling along with residence
programs. Student Development staff are committed to creating the most
positive climate possible within which personal growth and development oc-
cur.

Objectives of Student Development Services

To develop and sustain through student involvement activities, organizations
and services a campus life encouraging the cultural, intellectual, social and
religious development of all students.

To assist students in discovering life goals and exploring career opportunities.
To provide an opportunity for a student's educational experience to be as per-
sonally meaningful as possible.

To create an environment which stimulates qualities of self-discipline and
personal responsibility.

To provide a suitable context in which the resident student can explore new
ideas, skills and life styles, thus gaining the insight and experience necessary to
make intelligent choices.

To provide opportunity for the student to develop the understanding and
skills required for responsible participation in a democratic community
through involvement in self-government.

Residence Programs

RESIDENT CLASSIFICATION

Freshmen, sophomores and juniors taking ten or more hours are required to
live in college housing, so long as appropriate campus housing is available,
unless a student is exempted by the Office of Student Development for one of
the following reasons:

33

4. The student is a veteran with at least two years of active military service.

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.

34

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:

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.

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.

37

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 thern 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-curricular and 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. The Center also keeps up-to-date information regarding
certification and license requirements and qualifying examinations.

Counseling and Testing

An important part of the philosophy of LaGrange College is that each student
should have advice and counseling throughout his/her academic career;
therefore counseling is available to LaGrange College students in a variety of
areas. The goal is to assist students in gaining an understanding of themselves so
they are better able to make informed personal, academic and vocational
choices. In addition to individual counseling, group programs are available on
topics such as Study Skills, Test Anxiety Reduction, Career Planning, etc. A
broad range of career exploration is available to the individual student at no

cost. The College will assign freshmen to a faculty adviser who will assist with
the design of a program of study as well as any other problems which may oc-
cur. This special program is staffed by (eight) selected faculty members who
coordinate the programs of Freshman Seminar further described on page 51 .

The Office of Student Development also administers the Scholastic Aptitude
Test (SAT), and the College Level Examination Program, as part of the College's
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.)

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. The Chairman
of the Psychology Department is in charge of the academic portion of the pro-
gram. Students desiring to enter this program should consult with him 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
Students 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 the Chairman approves.
The Registrar will maintain records of completion of the credit and non-credit
activities. The Dean of Students will maintain any anecdotal records and infor-
mal 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. There is a fee.

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.

Academic Programs and Degree Requirements

Graduate Programs

LaGrange College offers programs of study culminating in the Master of Edu-
cation degree and the Master of Business Administration degree.

See the description of these programs in the Departments and Courses sec-
tion, page 69.

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, isapartoftheircareerorientation; (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 (excluded
are business administration, education and nursing).

Special Institutes/Continuing 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.).

49

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 whoare 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.

51

Academic Regulations

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-
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-
tionsgoverning probation will be called totheir attention.

Freshmen (fewer than 45 hours) must maintain a cumulative grade point
average (GPA) of at least 1 .65 to avoid being placed on probation. Sophomores
(45 to 89 hours), a 1 .75 GPA; Juniors (90 to 1 34 hours), a 1 .85 GPA; and Seniors
(more than 1 34 hours), a 2.00 GPA. In most cases, students have three quarters
to remove their probationary status. Failure to do so makes these students sub-
ject 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.

52

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 1985 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.

53

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, 011 . 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

54

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 LaCrange 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.

55

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.

56

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, at the beginning and end of quarters some delay may be unavoidable.

57

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.

Students at LaGrange College will participate in the evaluation of the extent
to which institutional educational goals are being achieved. This evaluation will
be in both the general education area and in the major. Students who graduate
in June 1990 will be the first class to participate in these comprehensive evalua-
tions. The method for determining institutional effectiveness and student
achievements is under development which involves participation of both the
faculty and representative students. Participation in this assessment and the at-
tainment of reasonable levels of achievement are requirements for graduation
in June 1 990 and thereafter.

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."

58

Pre-professional and
Co-operative Programs

Pre-professional Programs of Study

LaGrange College has a curriculum and environment that is well-suited to
preparation for further study in fields such as law and medicine. 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. It is not really possible to say which major serves as the best
prepa r atory background for law school. 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.

DENTISTRY

Dr. John Hurd 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 fewer than four years of college training, but most of them prefer
a student with the baccalaureate degree.

of nursing. Therefore, nursing courses have laboratory hours, as well as lecture
hours. Laboratory hours provide students time to apply classroom knowledge
and gain skill in actual patient care experience in hospitals, nursing homes,
clinics, and other health care facilities. Each laboratory credit 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.

Departments and Courses

Nursing

The purpose of the LaGrange College Associate Degree program is to
prepare individuals in a collegiate program for careers in nursing. The graduate
nurse is prepared to function on a beginning level in a structured health care
setting as a provider and manager of patient care, patient teacher, com-
municator, and member within the profession of nursing. The graduate is eligi-
ble to become licensed as a registered nurse upon successful completion of the
National Council Licensing Examination (NCLEX-RN). Completion of the
Associate of Arts degree provides a foundation for further studies leading to a
higher degree in nursing or other areas.

Progression Requirements:

*1. Nursing courses are in sequence and a grade of C or higher must be
made in each nursing course in order to successfully complete the course and
continue the sequence (a C is defined as 75-79).

*2. A student who wishes to repeat a nursing course must first complete an
audit of the preceding nursing course. For successful completion of audit, the
student must adhere to the regular classroom attendance policies.

*3. A student who fails to make a C or higher more than once in the se-
quence of nursing courses will not be allowed to continue in the nursing pro-
gram.

4. A grade of C or higher must be made in each required biological science
course. A student who receives two final course grades of D or F in any re-
quired biological science will not be permitted to continue in the nursing pro-
gram.

5. A grade of C or higher must be earned in English 101 and English 102 in
order to progress in the nursing program.

6. A student must successfully complete each biological science course by
the prescribed quarter in order to continue in the nursing sequence.

7. All general college non-nursing courses must be successfully completed
prior to the final quarter of the nursing program.

Departments and Courses

Surgical, Psychiatric, Pediatric, and Maternity Nursing) will be administered to
sophomore students at the beginning of Spring Quarter. Each student is re-
quired to achieve a passing score in each of the five areas. Required passing
scores are specified each year by the nursing faculty. If all areas of the exit exam
are not passed, the student must attend scheduled review classes and re-take
the previously failed area exams. A student not passing the exit exams the sec-
ond time will not be graduated at that time and must complete additional nurs-
ing studies specified by the nursing faculty. After completing the specified nurs-
ing studies, the student will be required to retake and pass the exit exams
before being allowed to graduate.

3. An overall quality point average of 2.0 is required for graduation.

Curriculum:

The seven quarter curriculum consists of 68 hours of nursing and 52 hours of
