First Week is a three-day orientation program designed to help you with your academic, personal, social and cultural transition into the LaGrange Panther community. Held before the start of classes, the program is geared toward both first-year and transfer students and includes a mix of engaging and educational activities throughout campus.
First Week starts on Saturday, August 24 (the day of move-in), at 9 a.m., on the plaza in the center of campus and continues that night with activities in the residence halls. The First Week program will continue each day through August 27th, when we celebrate your completed transition with an annual block party—Spirit and Traditions.
Classes start Wednesday, August 28, and the Panther Activities Committee will have optional activities every night of the orientation experience and throughout the first week of the semester to help you meet other students on campus.
