I’ve long been a watcher of seminary trends and now see that . Been reading about the coming wave of seminary closings for quite some time.
The SBC’s six seem to be doing well now. Wonder where all those grad degrees are going. The SBC’s smallest, Gateway in Calif, made a fortune on real estate. Southern is thriving. Southeastern is as well. Midwestern has increased enrollment substantially. Southwestern, after almost being run into the ground, has recovered nicely. New Orleans has new leadership and is doing OK.
With church numbers declining I wonder where all these people find jobs.
Will be interesting to watch over the next decade.
