The Phoenix

In Egyptian mythology, the Phoenix was a beautiful, lone red bird that lived in the Arabian desert for 500 or 600 years and then consumed by itself by in fire, rising renewed from the ashes to start another long life. It is a symbol of regeneration, immortality, and hope; as such, it is an appropriate symbol of Thiel College, in particular, and of a liberal arts education. 

Our publication, The Phoenix, testifies to the courage of the Thiel community to create, to use our intellects and imagination, and to share the power and wisdom of the writing process in the selections you are about to read and the artists’ evolving epiphanies in the visual pieces you are about to behold.

We hope you enjoy the literary and creative selections that follow. We invite you to contribute to The Phoenix by submitting your own creative or artistic pieces to Dr. Hall (305 Greenville Hall) or any member of the Editorial Board.
