R. P. SEMINARY /I MAY BE REMOVED |. Qolumbia State Gives Account of Agi tation to Take School of Theol ogy from Due We.-t. s The Columbia State contains the \ e following account of an agitation to t move the Associate Reformed Presby L terian theological seminary away e from Due West. The proposal to move B the seminary from Due West was dis s cussed several years ago. "Members of the Associate Reform tl 1 ed Presbyterian church in Columbia 0 are taking considerable interest in ' thq proposed removial of the A. R. ' P. Theological seminary, now locat ed at Due West, to some other loca tion. At the last meeting of the synod r j of this denomination a committee was appointed to take under considera 1 ii? it. 1 j HOI! tile reiHUVtti ui Lilt: dcunnaij auu to receive bids. Cities which are in mind as probable places to which the seminary would go iu.case it were re moved from Due West are Columbia, Memphis, Atlanta, Greenville and Charlotte. The congregation of the Columbia A..R. P. church has voted on whether or not it desired to have the semi nary removed from Due West. The vote of the congregation stood 39 against removal and five in favor of removal. Men in ^avor of removal of the institution to a city hold that a city provides mission territory at hand to occupy theological students. They also argue that the students would have better opportunity to hear leaders in religious thought who do not go to Due West. Some argu ments against removal are that the retirement of Due West from the en gaging activities of city life make it an ideal place for training the mind and heart for the gospel ministry. Other arguments against its removal t are also advanced. The removal, in lf case it ig favored by the congrega g tions of the A. R. P. church, would in n no wif-.e affect Erskine college, which f also is: located at Due West."
