Hide Profile

Lane Theological Seminary founded 1829; merged with Presbyterian Theological Seminary of the South in 1910, retaining its own name; merged with Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Chicago in 1932, under the name: Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Chicago. The seminary suffered from financial difficulties and controversies several times: internal struggle regarding abolitionist student movements; during the Old School/New School schism; in the 1890s when Prof. Henry Preserved Smith was tried and convicted of heresy; and in the debate over the revision of the Confession of Faith.
