TO THE STUDENT PERSONNEL OF
WEST GEORGIA COLLEGE:
The faculty joins me in giving to you a most
hearty and cordial welcome. Our campus is a
friendly place. This pamphlet is printed for your
information by the officers club. We hope that
it contains information which will aid you. The
suggestions herein listed have been found helpful
by our faculty and students. Therefore we pass
them on to you.
Respectfully,
IRVINE S. INGRAM, President.
FRESHMAN ORIENTATION
Each year the college faculty and the new stu-
dents assemble at the college three or four days
before the opening of classes for the fall quarter.
These days are spent in acquainting the new stu-
dent with his fellow students, the college faculty
and the college in general. Inspection trips are
made to the different buildings and to different
parts of the campus. Social and recreational hours
are planned for faculty and students. Students
become acquainted with their advisor who assists
them in selecting their courses and in making out
their schedule for the fall quarter. Physical ex-
aminations and intelligence tests are given.
REMARKS BY THE CHAIRMAN OF THE
STUDENT ACTIVITY COMMITTEE:
Traditions are a way of life in any college com-
munity. This mode of living is characteristic of
ladies and gentlemen the world over. Such state-
ments, as college bred; tolerant and understand-
ing; a scholar and a gentleman all spring from
that indefinable something we attain through liv-
ing in and becoming a part of a school in which
traditions are honored.
(1)
Here at West Georgia we are gradually building
up some excellent customs customs that are be-
coming traditions.
Welcoming New Students One custom which
is greatly enjoyed by those participating is that of
old students arriving early to welcome new stu-
dents. These students help new students get ac-
quainted with new surroundings and try to make
them feel at home as quickly as possible.
Freshman Week Many features of Freshman
week have already become part of the college tra-
dition. For example the Sophomore-instigated
Freshman Parade to town and around the square
has become so much a part of us that both stu-
dents and town folk look forward to it as an an-
nual event of fun and frolic. This parade has in
it the element of humor and is a test of good
sportsmanship for both Freshmen and Sopho-
mores. This parade is to take the place of all
other forms of initiation for new students.
Christmas Carols Then just before the Christ-
mas holidays the college chorus always arranges a
program of carols, first presented at the college,
and then sung out of doors here and there about
town. This gesture of goodwill and friendliness is
appreciated by the entire community.
Basketball The opening of the winter quarter
usually ushers in a full basketball schedule. In vic-
tory or defeat the team and the student body have
always shown an excellent sportsmanlike spirit.
Plays Plays are an important part of our win-
ter quarter program. The experience of being in
a play is of great value to the actors. The audi-
ence profits vicariously by a new experience and
by learning some of the pleasures and etiquette of
theatre going. A really good college play is re-
membered as an outstanding event of that college
year.
(2)
Debating Club The Debating Club sponsors
an annual intramural debating tournament during
the winter quarter. Tournament is open to all
clubs on the campus.
Annual Stunt Night Every winter Zeta Sigma
Pi, sponsors a stunt night, offering prizes to or-
ganizations presenting the cleverest and most hilar-
ious skits.
Spring Quarter Activities The spring quarter
ushers in our busiest time. Such important events
as: Religious Emphasis Week, Parents' Day; An-
nual Hobby Show; many parties and banquets;
the yearly Home Coming Concert; May Day fes-
tivities; Student Body Elections; Alumni Day, and
the colorful Final Dance are all extra-curricular
activities that have taken on the character of tra-
ditions because they are ardently supported. The
reason these activities live and continue year in
and year out is that we like doing them and sup-
port them whole-heartedly.
All these things have become customary, even
traditional, at West Georgia. But there are many
practices, more general perhaps, that should be
traditional on any campus.
Dates It is a matter of good taste among ladies
and gentlemen on a college campus to conduct
themselves on a date so as to conform to the best
social customs.
Campus This same good taste should keep us
from walking on the grass, throwing rubbish or
otherwise marring the beauty of our campus.
Chapel At West Georgia, Chapel serves a fun-
damental necessity. It is a part of our group
meetings. Here we come to feel that we are all a
part of this college. The audience reaction and
response in chapel is important. A quiet attentive
audience is a helpful atmosphere to any chapel.
(3)
Dining Hall For very good biological reasons
you have to eat three times a day. Anything we
have to do that often should be as interesting and
colorful as possible. The dining hall could be
the place on this campus where we learn some val-
uable lessons in etiquette. There is nothing which
puts one so ill at ease as not to know how to eat.
Noises Noises may be defined as sounds out of
place just as weeds are plants out of place. In
an educational institution where we depend so
largely on certain sounds for instruction and learn-
ing, sounds out of place are the rankest kind of
educational weeds.
Work and Play One of the most important
attributes of college training is that of discrimina-
tion. The capacity to put first things first is para-
mount. Our most important job at West Georgia
is living up to our individual classroom responsi-
bilities. Play before work or instead of work is
the hallmark of immaturity and childhood. Play
to the exclusion of all work makes a dullard and
a bore.
STUDENT ACTIVITY
Student activities and organizations are an imi-
portant part of life at West Georgia. Among the
various clubs and activities every student should
find something to stimulate his interest.
The faculty hopes that everyone will avail him-
self of the chance to participate in some manner
in the community life of the college as represented
by these organizations. The faculty has found
that participaton in too many activities at one
time has frequently been detrimental to the stu-
dent.
All activities are under the general supervision
of a special committee. Each club must present to
(4)
this Gpmmittee ( a general program: f or< the year?
and a definite program for the quarter. Each ac^
tivity must present a financial report to this com-
mittee at the end of each quarter and an annual
report at the end of the spring quarter. During
the fall quarter, membership in these organizations
is open to all students. This desire for member-
ship must be made known in writing to the Stu-
dent Activities Committee. During the following
quartersv except for new students, applications^
must be in by tJie first mieeting of the quarter.
Each student is limited to miembership in three or-
ganizations. He must be a member of any one
organization for two consecutive quarters before
being eligible to have his picture in the yearbook.
A student must withdraw from an organization if
he attends less than 66 per cent of the meetings
per quarter. Refusal to participate within a club
or refusal to take assignments in certain other or-
ganizations constitutes grounds for imin^diatie dis-
m.tsSal,fi&aBiltke organization.

"A dfelSCription of activities for Students, prepar-
ed by the Officers Club:
The West Georgian, student newspaper, is as.
old as West Georgia College itself. The editor is
chosen in the annual all-student election held at
the end of the spring quarter for the following
school year. Other members of the West Geor-
gian staff are chosen through try-outs held by the
new editor and the faculty advisor at the begin-
ning of each school year. Students who are in-
terested or experienced in journalism are urged to
come to these try-outs, which will be announced
after the beginning of each fall quarter. The West
Georgian has been awarded first class honor rating
five years by the Associated Collegiate Press. This
(5)
rating places The West Georgian among the best
junior college newspapers in the South.
The Chieftain, West Georgia's yearbook, was so
named because the Indian was the emblem of the
college. The first issue of The Chieftain appear-
ed in the spring of 1934.
The editor is chosen each year from the student
body by popular vote. The other members of the
staff are chosen by means of try-outs for which any
student is eligible. Staff members are selected from
those students who in the try-outs show more in-
terest and ability in journalistic and editorial work.
It is the custom each year for The Chieftain to
sponsor the Sweetheart Dance and other recrea-
tional activities.
WEST GEORGIA A CAPELLA CHOIR
West Georgia College has maintained a choral
organization of merit throughout its history. The
present choral organization is known as the West
Georgia A Capella Choir. Members are selected
by a series of aptitude tests which extend over a
period of eight weeks. In 1941 the committee on
the course of study authorized that one course
credit be given for satisfactory participation in the
choir for three consecutive quarters.
The purpose of the choir is to provide satisfying
experiences to students with interest and talent in
music and to supply appropriate music for various
needs on the campus and in the surrounding com-
munity.
Meetings are held each Wednesday at 7:30 P.
M., Tuesday and Thursday at 4:05 P. M.

THE VOLUNTARY RELIGIOUS
ASSOCIATION
All members of the student body are members
of the Voluntary Religious Association. The act-
ivities of the Association are guided by the V. R.
A. Council. The twenty-five members of the Coun-

applicants who are interested in spiritual activities
on the campus.
Weekly meetings are held each Wednesday night.

Sunday evening vesper service, help for needy
families, and many worthy causes.

The Citizenship Committee was organized in
the fall quarter of 1943. The Committee is com-
posed of a representative from each student ad-
visory group.
The purposes of the Citizenship Committee are
to study ways of improving the campus and living
conditions on the campus and to get training in
community leadership. During 1944-45 the Com-
mittee has sponsored the following projects: a
clean-up day each quarter, a plan for week-end
recreation, assistance with entertaining the State
Supervisor's Conference on the campus, help with
1945 G. E. A. meeting at West Georgia College,
and the 1945 Polio Drive on the campus.
