History notes:

Philadelphia Divinity School (also known as Divinity School of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Philadelphia) incorporated in 1862, graduating its first class in 1863; had several different locations in Philadelphia, settling in its last campus at 42nd and Spruce streets in the 1920s and merged with St. Andrews Church at the same time; in the 1930s nearly closed but implemented extensive changes in both its academic and governing programs; existed until 1974 when it moved to Cambridge, Mass., merging with Episcopal Theological School to form the Episcopal Divinity School.
