Princeton Postcard ~ from Alan

I thought I would share some photos of where I’ve been spending my Study Week on the campus of Princeton Theological Seminary.

This is Alexander Hall, the first, and for a long time, the only building of the Seminary.  PTS was established in 1812;  Alexander was built and dedicated in 1815, and yes, this is the original, although it has undergone multiple renovations since.

 

Miller Chapel, where daily chapel services are held.  I was fortunate to be present this week at the installation of 3 professors and 2 new trustees.

 

Speer and Luce Libraries house more than one million volumes and underwent extensive renovations completed in 2012.

 

The organ at Miller Chapel.

 

Pastor, author and theologian The Rev. Dr. Iain R. Torrance was President of PTS from 2004 to 2012.  This 4 story atrium is an anchor space at Speer & Luce.

 

Part of the Periodical Collections Room where I spent the better part of the week. The Library currently holds 1064 periodicals.  And yes, I did.
