   Masked MTSU mystery: McPhee:   
      
   The dreamer was notably on bicycle, taking shortcuts that seemed vaguely   
   familiar from my youth IRL, except that this one shortcut in the dream seemed   
   to pass through the old courthouse at the center of Murfreesboro, and at the   
   same time somehow run    
   through a building very much like the Peck Hall building at MTSU (IRL, a   
   unique, 3-story building, designed as 4 major supporting columns (basically   
   stair wells along with a classroom at each corner, although one corner sports   
   an elevator rather than a    
   stairwell.) One of the more interesting features about Peck Hall is that it's   
   an "open square" building, such that through all 3 stories, there is a square   
   courtyard that is open to the sky.  The dreamer was (like a teen) riding   
   through the *building*    
   when someone (like an older female) seemed to accost the dreamer with   
   something along the lines of cease and desist.  The dreamer, however, wasn't   
   about to have ANY of that, and actually lectured HER about the fact that since   
   he'd been riding his bike    
   through there for YEARS, he actually has a legal "easement" through the   
   property.  At that point, someone similar to a male authority figure attempted   
   to grasp the dreamer using the guy's right arm (that's about all that was   
   observed) upon the dreamer's    
   left, apparently with the idea of taking the dreamer / biker somewhere, such   
   as into a form of custody, arrest, or restraint.  The dreamer wasn't about to   
   have ANY of that, and came loose from the person's grasp and proceeded to ride   
   out of the building.   
      
   So far, most of this has been fairly clear, clarity 9-ish, although it   
   would've been interesting to have a better description of the female and the   
   person whose arm accosted the dreamer.   
      
   What happens NEXT, however, is where things get really symbolic, practically   
   as if entering a time column throughout the millennia:   
      
   The dreamer is on the ground floor level of Peck Hall, which is basically a   
   rather wide-open + plus sign (the 4 corners being support columns, stairwells,   
   classrooms) but no matter which direction one exits the courtyard (N, S, W, E)   
   there is a 3-step    
   decline (there are ramps on two sides IRL for wheelchairs) which a youthful   
   bike rider typically just flies off (riding at sufficient speed) rather than   
   take the more cumbersome ramps (as they have a 180° switch-back.)   
      
   In the dream, the dreamer passes out of one of these 4 direction paths, only   
   to detect a serious issue (which seems of a medical distress nature, a matter   
   of possibly life and death) which is where things get really wonky / most   
   likely highly symbolic:      
   There is a sound coming from beneath the ground (the 4 exit pathways all form   
   sidewalks, but there is earth to their sides, both in the dream as well as in   
   real life) as if someone has been buried alive yet is still able to be heard.    
   Rather than    
   investigate, the dreamer returns immediately to a populated area of the   
   building to seek for a doctor (MD? seems odd, although there are a LOT of   
   Ph.Ds at MTSU) and calls for this doctor by name.  Although I cannot recall   
   that name at this point (due to    
   evaporation) it seemed at that time an Arabic name, for certain, and the   
   dreamer had the mental impression that the Arabic MD's name being called was   
   that of a female doctor.  The dreamer had a distinct urge to get that medical   
   doctor to the location    
   where the voice was being heard, and FAST, in order that if any life were   
   uncovered, any medical attention may be rendered.   
      
   OK, sure, the obvious question is, "Why didn't the dreamer just uncover the   
   voice FIRST and THEN seek a doctor if necessary?"  Well, that's a perfectly   
   *OBVIOUS* question for the waking, conscious mind, but please remember, this   
   is a DREAM and as such,    
   all I can do is record what the dreamer experienced at the time:  And again,   
   things are gonna get even WONKIER from this point:   
      
   The dreamer leads the doctor out of the courtyard area of Peck Hall (I'm just   
   gonna *assume* it was to the east at this point) but there is no voice being   
   heard / the cause which prompted the dreamer to urgently seek out the doctor   
   is not apparent.  With    
   barely a fraction of a split second of question, the dreamer rationalizes that   
   they must've taken a "wrong exit" out of the courtyard area of Peck Hall   
   (something which is *incredibly* easy to do, even for the **waking**   
   individual, fully familiar with    
   the area!) and directs them to turn left (which goes to the north side of the   
   square building, using this assumption of direction) whereupon the voice is   
   again heard coming from below the ground.   
      
   At this point, the dreamer (possibly with help) begins digging by hand in   
   order to pull away the grass / sod / surface dirt, and almost immediately   
   uncovers a type of substance that is different from the surrounding soil.  I'd   
   say "man made" except that    
   such an identification wasn't actually made in the dream itself.  It did,   
   however, have a dark appearance, very much like a combination of cloth and   
   some kind of foam insulatory material.  The voice from beneath was calling out   
   for relief to help access    
   the air, or something like that.  Beneath the black material seemed (for an   
   instant) to be a gold death mask similar to that of ancient Egypt's King Tut   
   Ankh Amun.  That image disappeared as if it had never even been there, and the   
   face beneath appeared    
   to be that of MTSU President Sidney McPhee, and one of the words he spoke   
   (practically exclaimed!) was "WISDOM!"  Clarity 8 due to the awkwardness of   
   the symbology.   
      
   The only half-way rational interpretation I can come up with is that:   
   a) he lives about 2 miles away IRL (maybe less)   
   b) he is the president of a State University located in a Republican town of a   
   Republican state, and   
   c) he may be having to deal with the extraordinary times of pressure from the   
   left, while maintaining peace with the right.  Either way, being the president   
   of a university represents a point of concentration of all the lines of   
   educational advancement    
   from prehistoric times through the Egyptian dynasties through today.  (Why not   
   Chinese or Japanese or even Greek / Roman / etc.?)  (Look up Sydney McPhee's   
   picture on the internet, and that should answer the question.)   
      
      
   Stick around the neighborhood?
