The Core Curriculum is designed to be integrated with other courses during the first three (3)<br />
years of the student‘s experience at <strong>LaGrange</strong> <strong>College</strong>. The forty-six (46) semester hours<br />
included in the Core Curriculum are dispersed in three (3) areas: foundation studies, integrative<br />
studies, and exploratory studies. The thirteen (13) hours of integrative studies, which bring an<br />
interdisciplinary focus to the humanities, the social sciences, and problem solving, are central to<br />
the entire Core Curriculum. The interdisciplinary courses First-Year Cornerstone and First-Year<br />
Orientation provide the introduction and foundation for the Core Curriculum. No transient credit<br />
will be allowed for any Rhetoric and Composition course (ENGL 1101 or 1102) or for the<br />
Integrative Studies courses (Problem Solving, Computer Applications, Humanities: Ancient<br />
through Medieval Age, Humanities: Renaissance to the Present, The American Experience).<br />
