other special events.
VEHICLE REGISTRATION
To insure efficient control of traffic and parking on campus and the safety of all persons and
vehicles, every vehicle must be registered and must have a parking permit. These permits are
issued to students, along with a copy of existing parking regulations. A parking fee is included
in tuition. Failure to adhere to published policies may result in vehicles being ticketed and towed.
SOURCE CENTER
(STUDENT OPPORTUNITY, UNDERGRADUATE RESOURCES,
AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT)
A new initiative at LaGrange College, the SOURCE Center serves as a student‘s connection to
all aspects of college life as the student forms relationships with faculty, becomes involved with
student life (such as with the Career Development Center, the Counseling Center, and Student
Activities), and continues this connection after graduation as an involved alumnus or alumna
(such as with Alumni Affairs and Community Relations).
The SOURCE Center promotes networking opportunities that challenge students to build
transforming relationships with faculty, develop ties with the greater College community, and
form connections with LaGrange College alumni and friends of the College that will allow for
successful transition from college to graduate school or career pursuits. The staff works to design
mentoring programs that give students the opportunity to interact with persons who are
successful in their career endeavors and can provide guidance that enhances what the students
have learned in their classes.
In addition, students complete information needed to declare a major and a minor, withdraw
from a class, and initiate graduation petitions at the SOURCE Center. Finally, the staff works
with identified at-risk students to assist them in finding the appropriate faculty, staff, or
administrators to resolve their issues.
