Excerpt from Cumberland University Bulletin: Leabanon, Tennessee, Register, 1916-1917, Announcement, 1917-1918

Cumberland University first opened its doors to students in September, 1842. A charter was procured in December, 1843.

As at first organized, the University was composed of a College of Liberal Arts and a Preparatory School. The Law School was opened in 1847. Its growth from the start was remarkable, and in 1858 it was considered the second in size among the law schools of the country.

The Theological School was established in 1852, but was discontinued in 1909. The School of Engineering was established in 1852, and the School of Music in 1903.

When the Civil War began, the value of the buildings and apparatus belonging to the University was rated at $50,000 and the endowment at $100,000. Moreover, the University was in a most prosperous condition, the number of students in 1858 being four hundred and eighty-one. During the war the University buildings were burned, the apparatus and library were destroyed, the endowment was rendered worthless, and many of the trustees and friends lost all hope of reorganization. Notwithstanding all this, a few faithful ones determined to attempt the seemingly impossible, and in January, 1866, the University was reopened without buildings, endowment, or apparatus. Since that time the University has had a steady growth. Its buildings are large and commodious; its libraries, general and departmental, number twenty thousand volumes; its apparatus is valued at many thousands of dollars; and its influence reaches far and wide through the Union. Since 1897 the University has been a coeducational institution. Young women are received in all departments on equal terms with young men.
