The Tennent School of Christian Education<br />

Pursuant to the action of the Presbyterian General Assembly of 1941, which recommended<br />

that colleges of Christian education belonging to the Presbyterian Church<br />

should become related to seminaries or colleges, negotiations were entered into<br />

between the Trustees of <strong>Princeton</strong> <strong>Theological</strong> <strong>Seminary</strong> and the Trustees of<br />

Tennent College of Christian Education in Philadelphia. Following these negotiations<br />

the Trustees of Tennent College decided to close the latter institution and to<br />

make over its assets in trust to <strong>Princeton</strong> <strong>Theological</strong> <strong>Seminary</strong>. The <strong>Seminary</strong>, on<br />

its part, agreed to carry forward the work of Tennent College on a graduate level,<br />

and to perpetuate the name of Tennent upon the campus of <strong>Princeton</strong> <strong>Theological</strong><br />

<strong>Seminary</strong> and in the <strong>Seminary</strong>’s annual catalogue. The Tennent School of Christian<br />

Education was inaugurated in September 1944.<br />
