This was because of the university. It had a liberal tradition. There were only three thousand students. Everybody knew everybody else. Tuition was cheap. Many students were poor. Learning was respected. Philosophy was on everybody\u2019s lips. It was a last outpost of Jeffersonian simplicity and Greek humanism, and it was respected throughout the state.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Stories were told about how many miles famous alumni had traveled by mule or walked barefoot to get their education. Spirit and tradition were contagious because of the perfumed leaves and lawns. The campus was centered around an old well, over which had been built a fresh white canopy with columns. Old North and old South we\u2019re dormitories that had been designated state landmarks in planted with plaques. Dogwood perforated spring like snow. Oftentimes classes were held outdoors. Teachers came from the North and West and spread the school\u2019s fame. It took on a cosmopolitan air.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Ephesus had pride and its democratic ways. It was forced to defend itself each generation from accusations of being a hotbed of Communism. It put out plans for countering, erosion, unemployment, and tenant farming.

It existed because, as in all college towns, most of the inhabitants were young, and people were fervent in their ideas and tried to live them.<\/p>\n<p>Daphne Athas was young all her life.
