THE LAGRANGE COLLEGE STUDENT CREED Life is mine to Live. That I may cherish it And right royally meet its responsibilities, I would lay aside that which is Narrow, selfish, ignoble, and unkind; The false, superficial, the dishonest I would shun in thought, word and deed. Rather may I cultivate in my college life Those traits and ideals that will fit me To weave dreams into realities, And impressions into character, To meet bravely the hard tasks of life, To bring joy to those who falter in their tasks. I would strive to judge more kindly, Trust more fully, and love more deeply, That my life may reflect His goodness. And my soul may grow on the knowledge Of Him, whom to know is life eternal.

Henry, Jr. President To The Students at LaGrange College Inasmuch as you have entrusted yourself to LaGrange College for the development of your skills and the enrichment of your minds and hearts, we commit ourselves to the purpose of providing you with ideas, tools, and personal association that will move you toward you goals.
