Mission
Our Heritage
Founded in 1831 by what would become the United Methodist Church, LaGrange College embraces its history with the Wesleyan, liberal arts traditions.
Our community's life and work are rooted in the Wesleyan notion of education as not just informative, but also transformative: connecting mind, body, and heart. We carry on John Wesley's passion for making education broadly accessible. We do this by striving to meet each student where they are and by valuing them for who they are.
Our Values
As an Institution, we value:
- The inherent worth of every human being
- Pursuit of lifelong learning and development
- Integrity and moral courage
- Spiritual growth
- Service to our community and to our world
Our Mission
We challenge the minds and inspire the souls of our students, preparing them to become successful, responsible citizens who pursue lives of integrity, service, and lifelong learning.
Our Vision
To be an innovative institution, holistically educating our students to connect with and contribute to an ever-changing world.
