HARVILL C. EATON ONE CUMBERLAND SQUARE PRESIDENT LEBANON, TENNESSEE 37087

Letter from the President . . .

Welcome, Cumberland University is a 166-year-old, private, independent, liberal arts college with a commitment to preparing its graduates for a lifetime of learning and success in the workplace, and is the alma mater of many of America’s greatest leaders. It is located in Lebanon, Tennessee.

Lebanon is very historic and has preserved the central town square that has served as a political, commercial and cultural city center since the beginning of the 19th century. Cumberland’s campus is ideally located only one block from the Town Square so every student and visitor immediately understands the strong link between the culture and history of the Cumberland Country and Cumberland University.

The Cumberland Country is beautiful and exciting. Lakes, mountains, waterfalls and deep limestone caves surround the campus, yet Nashville is only 20 miles away. Nashville is America’s healthcare capital, home of the Titans and the Predators, banjos, guitars and Country Music. Indeed, Cumberland University and the Cumberland Country give you the best of both worlds: they are close to Nashville, but a world away.

The University is committed to the academic, cultural and professional development of its students. Students who pass through Cumberland’s classrooms take away a lifelong understanding of history, culture, respect and purpose of life. They also are prepared for success in the fast-paced world of the 21st century. The entire campus is fully internet wireless so students and faculty can surf the internet and access their course material from the classroom, dormitory or even from under one of the beautiful oak trees on the Memorial Lawn. A broad array of academic majors and study concentrations is available ranging from southern literature to biology and music to business and nursing. Cumberland hires only the best to teach. Each member of the faculty is a true teacher/scholar with a commitment to students and to make courses and dry words in a book come to life with excitement, relevance and that special touch that is the hallmark of a true teacher. You will never forget your Cumberland teacher.

Cumberland is special.

Would you like to fly? Cumberland is here to provide an experience that you will carry with you throughout your life. It will shape you for success and for an appreciation of culture and life. Cumberland is here to help you to fly away and realize your dreams. Come by and take a look at Cumberland . . . you will quickly learn that it is for you.

Sincerely,

Harvill C. Eaton, Ph.D. President
