HISTORY OF THE SEMINARY
25
HISTORY OF THE SEMINARY
In the year 1809 the proposal to establish a Theological
Seminary for the Presbyterian Church was introduced to
the General Assembly in the form of an overture from the
Presbytery of Philadelphia. The Committee, to whom the
overture was referred, recommended that three plans be
submitted to the presbyteries: the first, to establish one
school in some convenient place near the center of the
Church; the second, to establish two schools, one in the
North, the other in the South; the third, to establish a
school within the bounds of each of the synods. The re-
ports from the presbyteries, received in 1810, led the Gen-
eral Assembly in that year to decide upon a single school
and to appoint a committee to prepare a “Plan for a Theo-
logical Seminary,” to be reported to the next General As-
sembly. In 1811 the plan reported was adopted. In 1812
the location of the Seminary was fixed temporarily at
Princeton, N. J., a Board of Directors was elected, and the
Rev. Archibald Alexander, D.D., was appointed Professor
of Didactic and Polemic Divinity. In 1813 the Rev. Sam-
uel Miller was appointed Professor of Ecclesiastical History
and Church Government, and the location at Princeton was
made permanent.
The Trustees of the College of New Jersey entered into
an agreement with the General Assembly, allowing the use
of their buildings to the Seminary students, and offering
space on the campus for the erection of any building neces-
sary for the use of the Seminary. They also engaged that,
while the Theological Seminary shall remain at Prince-
ton, no professorship of theology shall be established in
the College.
The classes were held at first in Doctor Alexander’s
study and later for a time in the College buildings. In
1815 the Assembly determined to erect a hall which should
24 PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
contain both the lecture rooms needed and lodgings for the
students. The cornerstone was laid in that year, and the
building, now known as Alexander Hall, was first occupied
in the autumn of 1817. It was built upon a tract of land
which had been acquired for the use of the Seminary. In
1820 the Assembly authorized the professors to appoint
an Assistant Teacher of the Original Languages of Scrip-
ture, and in the same year they appointed to this office Mr.
Charles Hodge, a graduate of the Seminary, and a licentiate
of the Church. Mr. Hodge accepted the appointment and
was ordained. In 1822 he was elected by the General As-
sembly Professor of Oriental and Biblical Literature. In
1824 a charter, obtained from the Legislature of the State
of New Jersey, was accepted by the General Assembly, and
in accordance with its terms the property and funds of the
Seminary were placed in the charge of a Board of Trustees.
This act of legislation incorporated the “Trustees of the
Theological Seminary of the Presbyterian Church,” making
this the corporate name of the institution. With this in-
corporation the Seminary was constituted as at present.
The first session began on the twelfth of August, 1812.
Three students matriculated on that day, another in August
and five in November. Since then six thousand four hun-
dred and twenty-three students have been enrolled, coming
from nearly every part of the United States and from many
foreign countries. Of these, four hundred and twenty-
seven have entered upon foreign mission work.
THE DESIGN OF THE SEMINARY.
25
THE DESIGN OF THE SEMINARY
In the Plan of the Seminary, as adopted by the General
Assembly, its design is stated in the following paragraphs :
“The General Assembly, after mature deliberation, have
resolved, in reliance on the patronage and blessing of the
Great Head of the Church, to establish a new Institution,
consecrated solely to the education of men for the Gospel
ministry, and to be denominated The Theological Semi-
nary of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of
America. And to the intent that the true design of the
founders of this Institution may be known to the public,
both now and in time to come, and especially that this de-
sign may, at all times, be distinctly viewed and sacredly
regarded, both by the teachers and the pupils of the Semi-
nary, it is judged proper to make a summary and explicit
statement of it.
“It is to form men for the Gospel ministry who shall
truly believe, and cordially love, and therefore endeavour
to propagate and defend, in its genuineness, simplicity, and
fullness, that system of religious belief and practice which
is set forth in the Confession of Faith, Catechisms, and
Plan of Government and Discipline of the Presbyterian
Church; and thus to perpetuate and extend the influence
of true evangelical piety and Gospel order.
“It is to provide for the Church an adequate supply and
succession of able and faithful ministers of the New Testa-
ment; workmen that need not he ashamed, being qualified
rightly to divide the word of truth,
“It is to unite in those who shall sustain the ministerial
office, religion and literature ; that piety of the heart, which
is the fruit only of the renewing and sanctifying grace of
God, with solid learning; believing that religion without
learning, or learning without religion, in the ministers of the
Gospel, must ultimately prove injurious to the Church.
26
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
“It is to afford more advantages than have hitherto been
usually possessed by the ministers of religion in our coun-
try, to cultivate both piety and literature in their prepara-
tory course ; piety, by placing it in circumstances favourable
to its growth, and by cherishing and regulating its ardour;
literature, by affording favourable opportunities for its at-
tainment, and by making its possession indispensable.
“It is to provide for the Church men who shall be able to
defend her faith against infidels and her doctrine against
heretics.
“It is to furnish our congregations with enlightened,
humble, zealous, laborious pastors, who shall truly watch
for the good of souls, and consider it as their highest hon-
our and happiness to win them to the Saviour, and to build
up their several charges in holiness and peace.
“It is to promote harmony and unity of sentiment among
the ministers of our Church, by educating a large body of
them under the same teachers and in the same course of
study.
“It is to lay the foundation of early and lasting friend-
ships, productive of confidence and mutual assistance in
after life among the ministers of religion; which experience
shows to be conducive not only to personal happiness, but
to the perfecting of inquiries, researches and publications
advantageous to religion.
“It is to preserve the unity of our Church, by educating
her ministers in an enlightened attachment not only to the
same doctrines, but to the same plan of government.
“It is to bring to the service' of the Church genius and
talent, when united with piety, however poor or obscure
may be their possessor, by furnishing, as far as possible,
the means of education and support without expense to
the student.
“It is to found a nursery for missionaries to the heathen,
LOCATION OF THE SEMINARY
27
and to such as are destitute of the stated preaching of the
Gospel; in which youth may receive that appropriate train-
ing which may lay a foundation for their ultimately be-
coming eminently qualified for missionary work.
“It is, finally, to endeavour to raise up a succession of
men, at once qualified for and thoroughly devoted to the
work of the Gospel ministry; who, with various endow-
ments, suiting them to different stations in the Church of
Christ, may all possess a portion of the spirit of the primi-
tive propagators of the Gospel; prepared to make every
sacrifice, to endure every hardship, and to render every
service which the promotion of pure and undefiled re-
ligion may require.”
LOCATION OF THE SEMINARY
The General Assembly, after mature deliberation, selected
Princeton as the site of the first Seminary of the Church.
Among the reasons that led to this choice was the advantage
afforded by proximity to the College of New Jersey, now
Princeton University. The theological students have the
privileges of the University library ; admission to the
courses of instruction in the graduate and undergraduate
departments of the University when duly qualified and
upon recommendation by the Faculty of the Seminary;
opportunities to hear public addresses by the members of
the University Faculty and other distinguished lecturers;
and to attend the concerts and musical recitals given under
the auspices of the University.
Princeton is in quick and easy communication with New
York and Philadelphia, while yet sufficiently remote from
them to be free from distracting influences.

TERMS OF ADMISSION
29
he is connected, approving of his entrance upon theological
study v^ithout further literary preparation.
A letter of information regarding the scope of the ex-
amination, and the time and place of holding it, will be
sent on application made to the Registrar.
On his departure from the Seminary an irregular student
receives a certificate stating his period of residence and the
work he has accomplished.
Irregular students may at any time become regular stu-
dents by fulfilling the academic requirements.
Students received ad eundem
A student who has taken part of his theological course in
another seminary must present a letter from that seminary
certifying to his good standing, stating the courses he has
completed, and regularly dismissing him to this Seminary.
In addition to this he must qualify as a regular or as an ir-
regular student by complying with the terms of admission.
Graduate and Other Students
A student who has completed the regular course of study
in another seminary must present a certificate to that effect
from that seminary and, if a college graduate, also his col-
lege diploma. If he does not come immediately from a
seminary he must secure a letter from a presbytery or other
equivalent ecclesiastical body, stating that he is a minister

30
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
Ministers of the gospel who desire to attend the Semi-
nary for a longer or shorter period, but who do not wish
to undertake regular work, may, if properly accredited, be
received as Guests and given the privileges of the class-
rooms and library.

ment, so far as the same relates to the students; and that
I will obey all the lawful requisitions, and readily yield to
all the wholesome admonitions of the professors and direc-
tors of the Seminary while I shall continue a member of it.”
Collegiate Preparation
Other degrees than that of Bachelor of Arts, certifying
to the completion of an adequate course in liberal learning,
will be accepted as satisfying the academic requirements for
matriculation; but the classical course of study leading to
the degree of Bachelor of Arts is the normal course of
preparation for theological study. Special attention should
be given to Latin and Greek, philosophy, history and Eng-
lish language and literature. When work has been accom-
plished which is found to be equivalent to any of the courses
of the Seminary’s curriculum, credit will be given for it
and a substitute provided either in the curriculum or extra-
curriculum courses.
TERMS OF ADMISSION
31
Preliminary Test in Greek
A command of the elements of Greek is indispensable to
the prosecution of the linguistic and exegetical study of the
New Testament. Accordingly at the beginning of the Semi-
nary year an examination will be held in the translation
of simple Attic prose at sight and in the grammatical forms
(declension and conjugation) and structure (syntax) of
the Greek language; and although no special knowledge of
New Testament Greek is required, a passage from the Gos-
pels is usually offered for translation. All students who
pass this examination will proceed at once to the study of
New Testament Exegesis and of General Introduction to
the New Testament; but those who are deficient defer these
studies while pursuing a course in elementary Greek.
32
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
THE CURRICULUM
The course of study pursued in the Seminary is based
upon the outline set forth in the Plan of the Seminary
adopted by the General Assembly, and is designed to pro-
vide a complete and symmetrical training for the ministry
of our day. The following is a schedule of the subjects
embraced in it:
Biblical Philology
Hebrew is the foundation for the study of the Old Testa-
ment, and for several branches of that study is the pre-
requisite. The grammatical study of the language, as such,
is confined mainly to a single year, which is ordinarily the
first year of the Seminary course. During this year, train-
ing is given not simply in translation and parsing, but in
the derivation of words and the comparison of synonyms
and in converting English into Hebrew. A beginning is
also made in applying the knowledge of the language to
exposition, which is subsequently carried out more fully.
Later, provision is made for the higher study of Hebrew
and its cognate languages.
An acquaintance with Greek is required of all regular
students of the Seminary. In a course in General Intro-
duction the origin, character and sources of Hellenistic
Greek are discussed, and in the exegetical courses special
attention is given to the distinctive features of the language
as employed by the writers of the New Testament. Pro-
vision is made also for instruction in the elements of Greek
for students who are deficient in this respect. This is given
in three courses: a, for those beginning the study; h, for
those reviewing the grammar; c, for those who pass the
preliminary test but need a rapid review in grammar and
reading or who have had course a in their first year.

THE CURRICULUM
33
Apologetics and Christian Ethics
The aim of these courses is to exhibit positively the rea-
sonableness of Christianity as the supernatural and the final
religion. They consist of three separate but closely related
courses. One of these embraces a general introduction to
Apologetics; a critique of the reason, including the discus-
sion of its reality, its trustworthiness and its limitations;
the philosophy of religion, under which are considered the
definition of religion, its nature, its origin, its reality and its
criteria; and theism, historical, constructive and polemic.
The second course is devoted to the Evidences of Christian-
ity, internal, external, collateral, and the argument from
the character and resurrection of Christ ; and to the proof
that the Scriptures are the divinely inspired record of this
religion. The subject of the third course is Christian So-
ciology. Under this head are considered the teachings of
Christianity as to the family, the nation and the Church,
and the argument for Christianity from the superiority of
its social system. A course on Christian Ethics is offered
as an elective, and embraces Old Testament Ethics, New
Testament Ethics and the argument for Christianity from
its ethical system.
Introduction to the Scriptures
The courses in General Introduction to the Old and New
Testaments embrace the subjects of the canon, the original
languages of Scripture, textual criticism and the history
and principles of Scriptural interpretation. Those on Spe-
cial Introduction embrace an account of the several books
of Scripture, their authorship, integrity, design and struc-
ture, together with a general account of the contents of each,
and a more particular examination of questions relating to
their literary and historical criticism. These courses are in-
tended to include a general survey of every book in the Bible.
34 PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
Old Testament Exegesis and Criticism
A comprehensive survey is made of the several books of
the Old Testament in their individual plans and contents,
and in their relations to one another and to the general
scheme of which they form a part. The more important
questions of criticism and exegesis which arise in each are
considered, with a special reference to the gradual unfolding
of revealed truth, the preparation for the coming of Christ,
and the fuller disclosure of the New Testament. Particular
attention is paid to the interpretation of typical facts and
institutions, and to showing the progressive scheme of
prophecy. Separate courses are devoted to the detailed
exegetical study of the Psalms and of the Prophets.
New Testament Literature and Exegesis
The study of the New Testament is begun by a course of
lectures on General Introduction, including a discussion of
hermeneutical principles, Hellenistic Greek, textual criti-
cism, and the history of the canon. Exegesis of the New
Testament is commenced by a detailed study of the Pauline
Epistles. The life of Christ is studied on the basis of the
Gospels, attention being given to the historical trustworthi-
ness of the Gospels, their relations, their characteristics
and the harmony of their narratives. The Acts of the
Apostles and the Epistles of the New Testament are used
as primary sources for Apostolic History. This course in-
cludes a discussion of the origin of the Christian Church,
the life and work of Paul, and special Introduction to the
Acts of the Apostles.
Biblical History
Old Testament History is studied as a history of events,
while the unfolding of the import of these events in the
history of revelation is assigned to the department of Bibli-
cal Theology. The Biblical narratives themselves are
THE CURRICULUM
35
Studied as the source; but the course is supplemented by-
lectures which deal with the data furnished by the con-
temporary records of Babylon, Assyria and Egypt. Geog-
raphy is also studied, so far as it pertains to the history.
In like manner New Testament History, including the life
of Christ and the work of the Apostles, is studied in con-
nection with the books of the New Testament.
Biblical Theology
There are two courses exclusively devoted to the study
of Biblical Theology, one in the Old Testament and one in
the New Testament department. The point of view is not
that of the development of religious belief and practice in
Biblical times, but of the progress of revelation as an ob-
jective historical process. The several periods in the history
of revelation are discussed, and both the distinctive charac-
ter of each period and the continuity of the whole are em-
phasized. Besides the content the form of revelation receives
attention. The instruction is by lectures.
Church History
The instruction in general Church History is by text-
book and lectures, with references to sources and literature.
While the main design of the course is to set forth his-
torically the career of the Christian Church in its relations
to the other elements of the life of the world, the develop-
ment of Christian doctrine and the interior life of the
Church are also presented. Special treatises in each period
are recommended for collateral study. The required work
is divided into three parts, as follows: from the Apostolic
Age to Gregory the Great; from Gregory the Great to the
Reformation; from the Reformation to the present day.
Systematic Theology
Systematic Theology is studied throughout the course.
The doctrines are presented didactically, historically and
36 PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
polemically. The order of topics pursued is: the nature,
forms and sources of Theology; the being of God, his na-
ture and attributes; the Trinity; the divinity of Christ; the
Holy Spirit; the decree of God; creation; providence;
miracles; the origin, nature and primitive state of man;
the covenant with Adam ; the fall ; sin ; imputation ; original
sin; inability; the covenant of grace; the person of Christ;
his offices; the nature, necessity, perfection and extent of
the atonement; his kingdom; his humiliation and exalta-
tion; vocation; regeneration; faith; justification; sanctifica-
tion ; the word and sacraments ; eschatology.
The material is divided into three courses, embracing
respectively. Prolegomena to Systematic Theology and
Theology proper; Anthropology and Christology; and So-
teriology and Eschatology.
History of Religion and Christian Missions
Courses of instruction are given in the genesis and
growth of religion, comparative religion, and the oppor-
tunity and urgency of carrying the gospel to non-Christian
peoples. The character of the missionary message is
studied, the methods and results of Protestant missions are
considered, with special emphasis upon sociological progress.
In addition to the studies in missions which are included
in the curriculum, undergraduate students may make special
preparation for missionary service. They may choose as
the electives required to supplement the curriculum such
courses as the history of the mission field which the student
is expecting to enter in its political, social and religious
aspects, including an account of the doctrinal crises in the
light of similar crises in the early Christian church; philo-
sophical apologetics and comparative religion; the divinity
of Christ in practical presentation, embracing its prophetic
anticipations, Christ’s witness concerning his nature, his
mission and his return, and the relation of questions re-
THE CURRICULUM
37
garding the authorship of the New Testament documents
to this testimony ; the history and principles of religious
education; problems and methods of general education;
phonetics. Frequently, also, opportunity is afforded for be-
ginning the study of the language used by the people of the
country to which the student has received appointment.
Practical Theology
This course includes the study of Ecclesiastical and of
Pastoral Theology. Under the former caption are treated
the general topics of the principles and practice of the
Presbyterian form of government. Those treated under the
latter include the work of the ministry; church organiza-
tion; Sabbath school and evangelistic methods; systematic
benevolence; the Church Boards, and other agencies.
In connection with this course provision is made for the
students of the Middle Class to spend a series of Sabbaths
in Philadelphia and New York in order to become familiar
with various methods of Christian activity and service.
English Bible
The object of these courses is to secure, as far as possi-
ble, on the part of every student a general knowledge of the
contents of the Old and New Testaments, and to provide
for the study of the several books, with special reference
to their use in the pastoral and missionary service of the
Church.
Homiletics
Instruction is given in this department by means of lec-
tures, text-books, class exercises, and private conference
with the students, and in connection with the sermons de-
livered by the students in the presence of their classmates
and the Professor. Among the topics discussed are the
following; the nature and scope of Homiletics as a theo-
logical discipline; the idea of the sermon; the relations of
38 PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
preaching to the church and the world; the contents, form
and delivery of the sermon ; occasional and special sermons ;
miscellaneous problems of the preacher of to-day.
Sermonizing
Three exercises in sermonizing are held weekly, and every
student is expected to deliver, during his course, at least
three sermons in the presence of his fellow students, the in-
structor in elocution and the Professor of Homiletics or
some other professor. Criticism is made of the form, mat-
ter and delivery of these sermons. Each student, moreover,
is required to submit to the Professor of Homiletics for his
approval, before graduation, six written discourses.
Elocution
A thorough course of teaching in this department is
given, the students being met, both singly and in classes, by
the instructor in charge. A careful discussion of principles
is combined with abundant and varied vocal exercises.
LIST OF COURSES
The following list embraces the several courses which
constitute the curriculum as outlined above. The successful
prosecution of them all, together with six hours of elected
extra-curriculum studies, is requisite to secure the certifi-
cate of graduation.
Normally the work is distributed in such a manner that
in the first year there are 16^ hours of curriculum studies
each week; in the second year 14 hours of curriculum
studies and two hours of elected studies (which must in-
clude one hour in Semitics) ; in the third year 11J/2 hours
of curriculum studies and four hours of elected studies.
Not more than three hours of the six hours of elected
studies may be taken in one department.
It may be best in certain cases to devote four years to

EXTRA-CURRICULUM
41
: EXTRA-CURRICULUM STUDIES
j In addition to the studies provided by the curriculum of
i the Seminary, collateral courses in the several departments
are offered to the students. These courses enable students
to devote larger attention to favorite studies, to lay broader
foundations in knowledge, and, when the student conforms
I to the conditions, to qualify for the degree of Bachelor
of Divinity.
In order to fulfill the requirements for graduation, selec-
tions supplementary to the curriculum must, as already
I stated, be made from these courses, equivalent to six hours
a week during one session, but normally distributed over
two sessions.
, Students must make their selection of extra-curriculum
I studies known to the Registrar and Secretary of the Fac-
I ulty in writing during the first week of the session. Extra-
curriculum classes begin on the first Monday of the session.
EXTRA-CURRICULUM COURSES FOR THE
SESSION OF 1918-19
Unless stated otherwise each course mentioned in this
list is reckoned as occupying one hour a week during the
session.
! In addition to these courses, studies in special topics may
be arranged in any department on consultation with the
Professor in charge. This work is conducted by means of
assigned reading, under the stimulus, direction and advice
of the Professor in personal conference. There may be an
examination. The value in hours is reckoned according to
the amount of work demanded by the theme.

Prosecution of the Course of Study
1. Students on arriving in Princeton each year shall
consult at once with the Registrar and Secretary of the
Faculty as to their course of study, and shall indicate to
him within one week from the beginning of the term, on
blanks provided for the purpose, the studies determined
upon. These selections shall be subject to the approval of
the Faculty, and must in all cases be rationally correlated
and constitute a sufficient and orderly course of study. The
selected studies, after their approval by the Faculty, must
be adhered to throughout the year.
2. A student shall not take fewer than twelve hours,
or more than twenty hours weekly.
3. Students beginning their first year in the Seminary
and intending to complete the studies of the regular course
in three years must take the fundamental course in the
Hebrew language during this first year, and, in case of de-
ficiency in Greek, a course in elementary Greek also. Only
in the case of an entire lack of knowledge of Greek may the
study of Hebrew be deferred to the second year.
4. When a student on entering the Seminary has com-
PROSECUTION OF THE COURSE OF STUDY
45
pleted any of the studies of the curriculum, he may select
Other work from the curriculum or the extra-curriculum
studies; and such work from the extra-curriculum studies
may be credited to him for the degree of Bachelor of
Divinity.
On the other hand a student, deficient in some depart-
ment of his preparation, may arrange his course to enable
him to make up his deficiency, either by slightly increasing
the number of hours weekly in the regular course of study,
or by disposing his course to occupy four years.
Students who have received part of their training in
other approved seminaries and enter this Seminary by dis-
mission ad eimdem will have their periods of residence and
the work actually done in such seminaries credited to them ;
they will, however, be expected to take the studies which
are included in the curriculum of this Seminary but which
they lack.
5. Certificates of graduation will be accorded to those
students only who, in addition to fulfilling the conditions
specified under Terms of Admission, have been in residence
for a period of not less than three full years (a portion of
which period of residence may have been passed, however,
in other approved seminaries from which the student has
been regularly dismissed to this Seminary), and who have
completed, to the satisfaction of the examiners, all the
studies included in the curriculum and six hours of extra-
curriculum studies.
6. A student who has not completed all the studies in-
cluded in the curriculum shall not receive a certificate of
graduation, and cannot become a candidate for the degree of
Bachelor of Divinity, but he will receive a certificate setting
forth the studies he has completed in the Seminary.
Partial Courses
Students not candidates for graduation may be received
to a partial course. They must take at least twelve hours
46
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
of work weekly in the Seminary, be in residence at least
one year, submit themselves to all the general regulations
of the Seminary, and fulfill all the requirements of the
classes they take.
Courses for Lay- Workers
Students not candidates for the ministry, but seeking
training for mission fields or preparation for instructor-
ships in Biblical literature in schools and colleges, or de-
siring a general knowledge of theological science, may se-
lect courses of study for one, two or three years, by means
of which they may prepare themselves for their work or
acquire a knowledge of theological science suited to their
needs. Such students will be accorded the hospitalilty of
the class-rooms and every effort made to meet their re-
quirements.
Courses for Graduates
Provision is made for advanced work in all departments
of theological science, and facility is afforded to graduate
students for research-work by the large libraries of the
Seminary and the University.
Graduate students fall into two classes: they may or may
not be candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Divinity.
I. Graduates of this or of other approved theological
seminaries (or ordained ministers, not graduates, when
properly accredited), not candidates for the degree of
Bachelor of Divinity, may be admitted to any course of
study they may select, subject to the following conditions:
(i) They must be matriculated and enrolled at the begin-
ning of the academic year. (2) They must select at least
twelve hours weekly of class-room work, or its equivalent
in special work, under the direction of the Faculty. Min-
isters settled sufficiently near to Princeton to attend the
classes may distribute this work over a period of years.
(3) They must complete all the courses selected, submitting
PROSECUTION OF THE COURSE OF STUDY
47
to all requirements as to attendance, theses and examina-
tions, The graduate student may undertake a general
course of theological study by selecting an equal amount
of work in each department, or he may concentrate his
work in a few departments in order to meet his special
needs. He will receive a certificate specifying the work
which he accomplishes.
2. Graduates of collegiate institutions approved by the
Faculty who hold the degree of Bachelor or Master of Arts,
or other certificate for the completion of an equivalent
course in liberal learning, and who shall have completed
either in this Seminary or any approved school of theology
the several courses of theological study that constitute the
curriculum Of this Seminary, may be received as candidates
for the degree of Bachelor of Divinity.
Relations with Princeton University
In accordance with former privileges long accorded to
each other by the Seminary and by the College of New
Jersey and its successor Princeton University, relations of
academic reciprocity have been established by the two insti-
tutions by which students of the one, who are duly qualified
and are recommended by its Faculty, are granted admission
to the undergraduate or graduate courses of the other with-
out charge for tuition.
By this arrangement properly accredited students of the
Seminary may supplement their collegiate studies and in-
crease their knowledge in special fields of investigation.
When satisfactorily completed such courses, if graduate
in character, may be offered for the degree of Master of
Arts in the University or else for the degree of Bachelor
of Divinity in the Seminary, subject to the regulations
which govern the conferring of these degrees.
Students taking courses in either institution will be sub-
ject to the regulations which concern attendance, examina-
tions and scholarship.
48
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
DEGREES
The Degree of Master of Arts
Matriculated students in the regular course of the Semi-
nary, graduate or undergraduate, who hold the degree of
Bachelor of Arts from Princeton University or the equiva-
lent thereof from another institution, may, upon recom-
mendation by the Faculty of the Seminary, enter the Grad-
uate Department of the University by matriculation and
become candidates for the degree of Master of Arts. The
degree may be conferred upon such students, who maintain
a second group standing in their Seminary studies, after
they have taken graduate courses in the University involv-
ing three hours a week each term for four terms, that is,
for two years; and have stood satisfactory examinations
upon these courses, and done such extra reading as has been
assigned. There is a fee for the diploma.
The Degree of Bachelor of Divinity
Matriculated students of the Seminary who hold from
an institution approved by the Faculty the degree of Bach-
elor or Master of Arts, or other certificate of the comple-
tion of an equivalent course in liberal learning, may become
candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Divinity. There
is no fee.
Preliminary Qualifications
Every applicant must have completed a course of liberal
learning, as above defined, and have satisfactorily com-
pleted in an approved theological institution substantially
the studies which constitute the curriculum of this Semi-
nary, or be pursuing the regular course of study in this
Seminary.
Conditions Governing the Course
The equivalent of at least twelve hours of class-room
work a week for one Seminary year is required. These
THE CIRCULATING LIBRARY
DEGREES
49
studies may be pursued in a special year devoted to the
work ; or in whole or in part during the prosecution of the
regular course of study or, to a small amount in special
cases, during the summer vacations.
Of these studies an undergraduate student shall not take
more than will suffice to bring the number of hours of his
class-room work up to the maximum number of twenty
hours weekly ; and a student under condition in any depart-
ment, or whose progress in study has been unsatisfactory,
may not take extra-curriculum work with a view to the
degree of Bachelor of Divinity.
Examinations will be held on these studies, as on the
studies of the undergraduate courses. A student who at-
tends advanced courses but does not offer himself for ex-
amination, or fails to stand the test satisfactorily, shall
receive no credit therefor. The record of the candidate, his
thesis and examinations must be decidedly meritorious.
Chief Subject of Study
Every candidate shall, during the first week of the ses-
sion, announce in writing to the Registrar and Secretary
of the Faculty which one of the following departments he
selects for his chief subject of study; Semitic Philology;
Old Testament; New Testament; Church History; Sys-
tematic Theology, including Apologetics; Practical Theol-
ogy; Missions.
In addition to the courses offered in the several depart-
ments cognate courses in other departments will be desig-
nated as major studies for the degree.
Division of Time
Eight of the required twelve hours must be given to
studies in the department which has been elected, and the
remaining four hours may be selected from any depart-
ment. Three of the four hours may be devoted to studies
in Princeton University.
50
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
Under the direction of the Faculty, however, a candidate
for this degree may be permitted to do an 2Lmount of work
equivalent to twelve hours upon two or more of the sub-
jects in any department, and it shall qualify him for the
degree after such thesis or examination as the Faculty may
approve.
Conferring the Degree
On the fulfillment of these conditions, the degree will be
conferred upon the candidate at the ensuing annual com-
mencement. Only in exceptional cases and for reasons
deemed sufficient by the Faculty will the degree be con-
ferred in absentia.
FELLOWSHIPS AND PRIZES
51
FELLOWSHIPS
Six fellowships have been established : one in Old Testa-
ment Literature, one in New Testament Literature, one in
alternate years in Biblical Theology and Semitic Philology,
one in Apologetics and Christian Ethics, one in Church
History, and one in Didactic and Polemic Theology. A
student, upon deciding to compete for any one of these
fellowships, must announce his intention to the head of
the department. These fellowships are governed by the
following general rules:
1. Unless otherwise stated, the fellowship is awarded
to that member of the graduating class who prepares the
best thesis on a theme assigned by the department in which
the fellowship is offered and who stands highest in a special
examination held in April upon an announced subject. But
no student shall be awarded a fellowship unless he has
maintained a standing of excellence in the studies of the
Seminary and unless his specified thesis and examination
are decidedly meritorious. The thesis, signed with an as-
sumed name and accompanied by a sealed envelope contain-
ing the real name of its author, must be presented on or
before the first day of April at the office of the Registrar
and Secretary of the Faculty.
2. If, in any year, a fellowship is not awarded as pro-
vided for in Rule i, it may be conferred by a majority vote
of the members of the Faculty who may be present at any
regular or regularly called meeting of the Faculty, upon any
graduating or graduate student, pursuing during the aca-
demic year just closing his studies in this Seminary or in
any other approved school of theology, who may be nomi-
nated by the professor in charge of the department to which
the fellowship is assigned.
3. If in any year any of the fellowships on the Gelston-
Winthrop Foundation, above designated as fellowships in
52
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
Apologetics and Christian Ethics, Church History, and Di-
dactic and Polemic Theology, is neither awarded as pro-
vided for in Rule i, nor conferred, as provided for in Rule
2, on notification by the professor in charge of the depart-
ment to which it has been assigned that he has no nomina-
tions to make, it may be conferred in any department by a
majority vote of the members of the Faculty who may be
present at any regular or regularly called meeting of the
Faculty, upon any graduating or graduate student, or upon
any student who has been graduated not more than five
years previously, either of this Seminary or of any other
approved school of theology. But in no case shall it be thus
conferred unless the professor in charge of the department
to which the fellowship is assigned be one of those voting
in the said majority.
4. The holder of a fellowship shall pursue studies in
the department in which his fellowship has been awarded
or conferred. He shall study for a full academic year.
This year shall be that next ensuing after his appointment,
unless permission to defer it be obtained from the Faculty.
The studies of all fellows shall be submitted for approval
to the professor in charge of the department, prosecuted
under his direction, and reported to him from time to time
as he may direct. Fellows may pursue their studies either
in this Seminary or in some other approved school of the-
ology, as may be determined in each case, under the advice
and with the consent of the aforesaid professor. But in
case a fellow neither is a graduate of this Seminary nor has
been in residence as a graduate student of this Seminary,
his studies as fellow must be pursued in residence in this
Seminary.

In each case satisfactory evidence of academic attainment
and ability to profit by the course of instruction in the
Seminary must be presented to the Faculty and approved
by it before a scholarship can be awarded.
Five graduate scholarships of three hundred dollars each
have been established. These may be awarded by the Fac-
ulty to prospective graduate students upon application, and
recommendation, by the institutions with which they are
connected and upon the exhibition to the Faculty of the
Seminary of meritorious attainment in academic and theo-
logical studies prior to action upon the application.
SPECIAL LECTURES
Two lectureships have been endowed which, through the
publication of the lectures as delivered or in expanded form,
have been productive of a considerable body of theological
and missionary literature.
SPECIAL LECTURES
59
An appropriation is made also from the Gelston-Winthrop
Fund to provide occasional sermons and lectures.
The Stone Lectureship
In 1871, Levi P, Stone, Esq., of Orange, N. J., a Director
and also a Trustee of the Seminary, created the foundation
for a lectureship which, in accordance with his direction,
has been applied annually since 1883 to the payment of a
lecturer, chosen by the Faculty of the Seminary, who de-
livers a course of lectures upon some topic kindred to theo-
logical studies. In the years 1903 and 1906, the endowment
was increased through the generosity of his sisters.
The Students’ Lectureship on Missions
The Students’ Course of Lectures on Foreign Missions
had its inception in the minds of the undergraduates of
the Seminary and its endowment was secured largely by
their efforts, liberally supported by the Rev. James S. Den-
nis, D.D. It was established in 1893, and provides for an
annual course of lectures on some topic connected with
foreign missions of practical importance to those looking
forward to missionary work.

PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
Library
The Library, which is in the two buildings erected for it
in 1843 and 1879 by James Lenox, LL.D., of New York,
now contains 106,166 bound volumes, chiefly theological,
including the libraries of Drs. Ashbel Green, John M.
Krebs, and John Breckinridge; the valuable library of Dr.
J. Addison Alexander, the gift of Messrs. R. L. and A.
Stuart; 2800 volumes of the library of Professor William
Henry Green, bequeathed by him to the Seminary; a re-
markably full collection of works on the Baptist contro-
versy, embracing over 2000 volumes and 3000 pamphlets,
gathered and presented by Mr. Samuel Agnew, of Phila-
delphia; a collection of 2000 volumes of Puritan theology,
presented by friends of the Seminary; also 1210 volumes
from the library of Dr. Samuel Miller, presented by his
great-great-grandson, Samuel Miller Breckinridge Long, in
memory of Judge Samuel Miller Breckinridge. In addition
to the bound volumes already mentioned, the library pos-
sesses 35,733 pamphlets, including the large and unique
collection presented by the Rev. Dr. Sprague.
The Library also possesses nearly 3,000 cuneiform tab-
lets. Of these about 1200 are Sumerian records from the
time of the second dynasty of Ur, 200 from the Early
Babylonian period, and the remainder from the Late Baby-
lonian and Persian periods.
The Library has a fund of ten thousand dollars from the
generosity of Messrs. R. L. and A. Stuart and an additional
fund of twenty-five thousand dollars from the estate of
John C. Green, Esq., the proceeds of which, together with
an annual appropriation of six thousand dollars from the
Gelston-Winthrop Memorial Fund, are devoted to its main-
tenance and increase ; a fund of one thousand dollars given
by the Rev. Dr. Samuel M. Hamill, of which the income is
for the purchase of books on foreign missions; a fund of
GENERAL INFORMATION

three thousand dollars, given by Mrs. R. L. Kennedy, of
Philadelphia, the income of which is for the purchase of
books on church history, and a memorial fund of five thou-
sand dollars from the estate of Mary Cheves Dulles, the
income of which is for the purchase of books.
The Library is divided into a Circulating and a Reference
Library. The Circulating Library, in the later of the two
buildings, is open seven hours in the day and three hours
at night, and the Reference Library, in the older building,
is open every week-day, eight hours in the day and three
hours at night except Saturday night. The Reference Lib-
rary contains a large number of books from the Circulating
Library, which have been moved to it because of lack or
room in the Circulating Library, besides works of reference
and many theological, missionary, and other periodicals.
The religious weeklies are to be found in the parlor of Alex-
ander Hall, and each of the parlors of the three dormitories
is supplied with prominent daily papers of New York and
Philadelphia. The Library staff, in addition to the lib-
rarian, consists of the Rev. William B. Sheddan, assistant
librarian, Miss C. M. Alexander, Miss Margaretta Ter-
hune, and Miss Letitia N. Gosman.
The students of the Seminary are entitled to the free use
of the library of the University, subject to its rules.
Stuart Hall
This building, erected in 1876, is a gift to the Seminary
from Messrs. R. L. and A. Stuart. It affords ample ac-
commodation in the way of lecture rooms, and contains two
large auditoriums intended for use at public gatherings of
the institution.
Dormitories
Alexander Hall, long known as the Old Seminary, was
the first building erected by the Presbyterian Church in the
64
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
United States for seminary purposes. It was first occupied
by the students in the autumn of 1817. In it the rooms,
whether intended for one occupant or two, are connected
with a separate bedroom.
Brown Hall was given by Mrs. Isabella Brown, of Balti-
more. The cornerstone was laid by the Moderator of the
General Assembly on the 21st of May, 1864, and it was
occupied in the autumn of 1865. It is a dormitory of single
rooms.
Hodge Hall, built by money from the bequest of Mrs.
Mary Stuart, widow of Mr. Robert L. Stuart, of New
York, was completed during the summer of 1893. The
rooms are in suites, each study having a separate, connect-
ing bedchamber, or, in the few cases where the study is to
be shared by two occupants, a separate sleeping apartment
for each.
Each of these dormitories is provided with fire escapes
and contains bathrooms and a parlor. The halls and rooms
are heated by steam and lighted by electricity.
G5minasium
The Gymnasium, conveniently located, is equipped with
modern apparatus. There are tennis courts and ball grounds
on the campus.
Rooms
The rooms in the several dormitories are furnished with
bedstead, mattress, pillows, bureau, washstand, chairs, table,
looking-glass, bookcase, floor rug, and either a clothespress
or a closet. Whatever may be needed or desired beyond
this general provision must be obtained by the students
themselves.
Every student is provided with a room either in the dor-
mitories or, in case they are full, in the town. The draw-
ing for rooms in the dormitories by entering students takes

place at 3 P. M. on the first day of the session. A double
room will be assigned previous to the opening day to ac-
cepted students who wish to room together, if they make
application either in person or by letter.
Expenses
There is no charge for tuition or room rent. The fees
required of students are $12 for steam heat and electric
light in the study and bedrooms. Board can be obtained
at $4.50 a week. The total of necessary expenses, outside
of text-books, is about $181 for the Seminary year.
Books can be bought at a reasonable price at the book
store established in the Seminary, and some text-books are
provided by the library.
Scholarships
Deserving students, whose circumstances require it, re-
ceive aid to a limited extent from the scholarships of the
Seminary, and from special funds contributed for this pur-
pose. Students needing aid should apply first to the Board
of Education through their presbyteries. If the Board’s
scholarship should prove insufficient, an additional sum will
be granted from the scholarship fund of the Seminary.
This aid is available to students who are pursuing the
regular course of study, and also for one year to graduate
students seeking the degree of Bachelor of Divinity. Other
students may receive aid only exceptionally by action of
the Faculty.
Students are advised not to engage in distracting occupa-
tions during term time with a view to self-support. Such
engagements interfere seriously with their attention to
study, and should be rendered unnecessary by the aid which
they may receive from scholarships.
Care in Sickness
In case of severe illness, the student has admission to the
Isabella McCosh Infirmary, in which one bed has been fully,
66
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
and another partially, endowed by the Seminary. The en-
dowment does not cover expenses for food. The physician
in charge may be consulted without expense during office
hours at the Infirmary.
Reports to Presbyteries
Annual reports are sent to presbyteries of the attendance
of students under their care upon the exercises of the Semi-
nary. In case of deficiency in scholarship this also is re-
ported.
Examinations
The annual examinations are conducted in writing and the
results are reported to the Committee on Examination and
Visitation appointed by the Board of Directors, of which
the Rev. John F. Patterson, D.D., is chairman. The mid-
year examinations will be held January 14-15, and the
final examinations will be concluded on Friday, May 2.
Students absent from or conditioned in the final examina-
tions must submit to an examination before the second
Tuesday of the ensuing October. The examinations neces-
sary for this purpose begin immediately after the opening
of the session in September, and are held according to a
published schedule.
The Academic Year
The Seminary opens on the fourth Wednesday of Sep-
tember and closes the Tuesday thirty-one weeks and six
days thereafter.
The drawing for rooms by newly matriculated students
takes place in Hodge Hall, at 3 o’clock in the afternoon of
the first day of the session. The opening address is de-
livered in Miller Chapel at ii o’clock in the forenoon of
the following day.
The Board of Directors holds two stated meetings each
year; the first on the second Tuesday of October, the sec-
GENERAL INFORMATION

ond on the Monday before the second Saturday in May.
Both begin at 2 P. M. The Board of Trustees also holds
two stated meetings annually ; the first on the second Mon-
day in November, the second on the Tuesday before the
second Saturday in May.
The annual sermon at the close of the session will be
preached on Sabbath, May 4th, by the President of the
Seminary. At this service the sacrament of the Lord’s
Supper will be administered.
The usual diplomas will be conferred on the next gradu-
ating class on Tuesday, May 6th, in the presence of the
Board of Directors, when the students will be dismissed
with an address by a representative of the Board.
Vacations
The summer vacation gives to students a suitable oppor-
tunity for engaging in preaching and in other religious
work, under the direction of their pastors, presbyteries, or
the Boards of the Church. Such work furnishes an im-
portant supplement to the training of the Seminary, afford-
ing experience and familiarity with the active duties of the
ministry, which will be invaluable as a part of the prepara-
tion for the sacred office.
A recess of two weeks is also taken at the Christmas
season.
Gifts and Bequests to the Seminary
The corporate name of the Seminary is the “Trustees
of the Theological Seminary of the Presbyterian Church,”
at Princeton, N. J. This name and description should be
used in all legal documents. Gifts, devises and bequests
may, at the pleasure of the donors, be directed to the Per-
manent Fund, which is for the support of the professors;
to the Education Fund, which is for the aid of needy stu-
dents; to the Contingent Fund, which is for defraying the
68
PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
general expenses of the institution; or to any other impor-
tant object connected with the Seminary. The sum of
$2500 or $3000 will endow a scholarship.
Alumni Association of the Seminary

annual meeting in connection with the alumni dinner at
Commencement.
