Individuals In this age of science and electronics, when persons in an overcrowded population live, work, and move with thousands of others, social security numbers, zip codes, and numerous other identifying systems seem to blot out the individual. A person too often finds himself caught up in a maze of meaningless abstractions. It is important to remember that these numbers are only surface deep; it is the person who is real. At Cumberland each student is an individual, not just a name or number. That feeling of insecurity, of being lost in the crowd, is absent here. Knowing that he belongs and aware that he is accepted, the student strives to develop character and integrity through pride in his own achievements.
