Excerpt from The Phoenix, 1897, Vol. 3 This year closes with eight students looking forward for advancement. Some have record for faithful service; others for lack of faithful service. Here we are upon the threshold of the Junior Year. We shudder at the thought Junior for as many who have gone before, tell us of the much dreaded Professor Buck and his calculus, and assure us a reception as cold as the climate of Siberia; they tell us that this is the Slough of Despond over which few can ever hope to pass. Having put hand to plow, however we venture to stem the tide. But we are not the only ones to try the realities of the dreaded work four new members have joined the ranks. Dickey hails from West Tennessee. His serious manner and studious habits, despite his extreme youth soon tell that he means to succeed not only as a student in college, but also in his chosen profession as a lawyer.

Excerpt from The Phoenix, 1926, Vol. 31 In spite of the fact that every student worked two days a week on the school farm, the Trustees were soon perilously involved in financial troubles; so in 1842 the General Assembly voted to move Cumberland from Princeton, and invited offers from towns wishing the advantages of a college. Lebanon made the highest bid, and took the newly acquired institution into its care at once. A charter was obtained in 1843, and 1844 found Cumberland College well situated in a new building, with the more dignified name of Cumberland University. It is interesting to know that the first official publication was a twenty-one page rule book, issued in 1843. Such regulations as the following may seem strange to the mod ern mind, but they are actually found in this first bulletin.

Platonic Patterns is a reprint collection of many of Holger Thesleff's studies in Plato-spanning from 1967 to 2003. It includes three books, four articles and a new introduction by the author, which sets the general outline of his interpretation of Plato. Whereas much of the scholarship on Plato has tended to operate within the frame of one language and/or a single school of thought, Thesleff constructively combines several discoveries and theories (philosophical, philological and historical) of various scholars with his own research, focusing on how Plato can be understood in his own context.The work represents small but significant breakthroughs in research on Plato from an internationally inclusive standpoint. Having previously been published mainly in Finland by scholarly societies, availability outside the Nordic countries has, up until now, been minimal.Thesleff employs his singular expertise of Greek language and literature to make innovative contributions to the study and interpretation of Plato. He thematically stresses the significance of the less overt elements found in Plato's dialogues, such as Plato's use of humor and his linguistic expression, while taking into account the chronology and/or the intended audience.
