THE DIVINITY SCHOOL OF DUKE UNIVERSITY GENERAL INFORMATION HISTORICAL STATEMENT The present Duke University has gradually been developed from a simple beginning in a local school established in 1838 in the northwestern part of Randolph County, North Carolina. This school was enlarged in 1840 and named Union Institute. In 1841 it was incorporated as Union Institute Academy by the legislature of North Carolina. Under the leader- ship of President Braxton Craven, the Academy grew into an institution chartered as Normal College in 1851. An amendment to the charter in November, 1852, authorized Normal College to grant degrees, and two students were graduated in 1853 with the degree of Bachelor of Arts. In 1859 the charter of Normal College was amended to place the institution under the control of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and the name was changed to Trinity College. Dr. John Franklin Crow- ell became president of Trinity College in 1887. The most important achievement of his administration was the removal of the College to Durham, North Carolina, which was accomplished by September, 1892. President Crowell resigned in 1894, and was succeeded by the Rev- trend John Carlisle Kilgo, D.D. During President Kilgo's administration the endowment of Trinity College was greatly increased, a library and other important buildings were erected, and notable progress was made by increasing the variety and improving the quality of the courses of instruction. A School of Law was established in 1904 by the gift of James B. and Benjamin N. Duke. In 1910 President Kilgo was succeeded by Dr. William Preston Few. Trinity College experienced a great expansion in faculty, endowment, buildings, and equipment during President Few's administration. On December 11, 1924, James B. Duke executed the Indenture of Trust which created what is known as the Duke Endowment. Among its purposes was an educational institution to be known as Duke University. Mr. Duke's death in 1925 was followed by an announcement of additional provisions in his will for the development of the University which bears his family name. Following the death of President Few in October, 1940, Dr. Robert Lee Flowers was elected as his successor on January 29, 1941. THE DIVINITY SCHOOL The Indenture signed by Mr. James B. Duke, which established the University, mentioned first among its objects the training of ministers of the Gospel. The Divinity School was, accordingly, the first of the grad- uate professional schools to be organized. Its work began with the year 1926-27, the formal opening exercises being held on November 9, 1926. The Reverend Doctor Edmund Davison Soper was the first dean of the Divinitv School. He was succeeded in 1928 bv the Reverend Doctor 8 Duke University Elbert Russell, and the latter in turn in 1941 by the Reverend Doctor Paul Neff Garber. In 1944 Dean Garber was elected to the episcopacy of the Methodist Church, and the Reverend Doctor Harvie Branscomb assumed the duties of the dean's office. In 1946 Dean Branscomb became Chan- cellor of Yanderbilt University and in 1947 the Reverend Doctor Paul E.

  • The Use and Abuse of Cambridge University's Ten-Year Divinity Statute
    Ambition, Anxiety and Aspiration: the use and abuse of Cambridge University’s Ten-Year Divinity Statute. This paper examines the market for and motivation of those who made use of a little-known Cambridge University statute which, in effect, offered a low-cost distance learning degree until 1858. It shows how non-graduates, both clerical and lay, attempted to use its provisions to enhance their status, facilitate career advancement and insulate themselves against status slippage, a problem that became acute in the second decade of the nineteenth century as the reinvigorated universities reasserted their role as educators of the clergy and as the bishops increasingly denied ordination to those educated outside their sphere. In doing so we can observe how the desires of non-graduate clergy to take degrees, and the attempts of liberally-educated non-graduates to enter the pulpits of the established Church, were responded to both by the university which received them and more broadly by the print discourse which critiqued their ambitions. The tensions revealed are relevant not just for understanding something of how the clergy were developing as an occupational group, and the tensions caused by the changing supplies of graduates, but also reflect more generally the status anxieties of the elites and middling sorts as they faced down fears of competition for cultural and economic privilege appendant to educational opportunities. The ten-year divinity statute: interpretation and reputation. Distance learning has a long pedigree at Cambridge University. A papal dispensation allowing monks and friars to proceed to the degree of bachelor of divinity, without first taking a degree in the arts was, in spirit, to survive the reformation.

  • Duke University and the Methodist Tradition1
    ,... ____________________________mm ___ _,, ____ _ ' ' Methodist History, 42:3 (April 2004) I' '· DUKE UNIVERSITY AND THE METHODIST TRADITION1 WILLIAM E. PIKE Ever since William F. Buckley, Jr.'s 1951 work, God and Man at Yale, a debate has raged openly in the United States and beyond regarding the "sec­ ularization'' of once-Christian institutions of higher learning. Proponents of universities free of church ties have argued that religion hinders the free' exchange of ideas, the growth of scientific research, and the open expression of differing student personalities. Critics of secularization feel thatby shed­ ding years of Christian tradition, universities go adrift without a moral com­ pass or a true appreciation for the historical pillars upon which they were founded . ., As with so many of its counterparts, Duke University faces these ques- tions. Undoubtedly once a solidly Christian school .:... and in particular a Methodist school - it now exhibits the characteristics of a modem, secular university. Its solid ties to the church amount to an overtly Christian divini ... ty school, with a decisive United Methodist bent, and a traditional, informal , · tie between the university Board of Trustees and the North Carolina Annual Conferences of United Methodism. This paper explores to some degree the journey the school has taken to this point, and also asks the important ques­ tion, Is Duke still a United Methodist university? I In its earliest days the institution which would someday become known as Duke was operated mainly by Christians, and more specifically, by Methodists. However, that does not mean it was automatically a Methodist institution. Indeed, for some years during its early history it was not offi..

  • ABSTRACT BARR, KRISPIN WAGONER. the Historical Legacy of a Secret Society at Duke University
    ABSTRACT BARR, KRISPIN WAGONER. The Historical Legacy of a Secret Society at Duke University (1913-1971): Cultural Hegemony and the Tenacious Ideals of the “Big Man on Campus.” (Under the direction of Dr. Audrey Jaeger). Collegiate secret societies, as distinguished from Greek-letter fraternal organizations, enjoyed prominence within many American campus communities from the early nineteenth century through the mid-twentieth century (Baird, 1879; Hitchcock, 1863; Slosson, 1910; Veysey, 1965). The establishment of these elite groups preceded the maturation of university administrative structures responsible for managing students’ extracurricular life, as well as the mass democratization of American higher education which occurred after World War II (Rudolph, 1990; Cohen, 2010). The presence of prestigious secret societies is documented and celebrated in college yearbooks and newspapers, reflecting a period in higher education’s past when the hegemony of the white, male prevailed in student culture and fostered the composite ideal of the “Big Man on Campus” (“B.M.O.C.”) – the handsome varsity athlete, fraternity man, and club president destined for success in American public life. Although collegiate secret societies “disappeared” on many campuses in the Civil Rights Era amidst accusations of elitism and reactions against established white, Anglo- Saxon Protestant norms, their legacy lingers into the twenty-first century, along with many unanswered questions about their historical role as a source of student power on campus. Their roots can be traced to the prestigious all-male boarding schools of the Northeastern United States in the late nineteenth century where patterns of upper-class masculine socialization developed. Due to a dearth of historical research on this topic, however, institutional leaders are challenged to understand the origins, purpose, and legacy of this type of student association that still holds meaning for students and other stakeholders in some campus communities.

A New Thing The Christian Church is being challenged in our day to move out onto the frontiers of human need in a sacrificial way. It must become racially inclusive, able to meet the challenge of the inner city, and ecumenical in its outreach. All of these challenges mean that we must have a new pattern of training men for the ministry. Lincoln is moving to meet this challenge by offering a new kind of theological training for those who want to serve in these frontier situations. Lincoln offers inter-racial fellowship. It is the first Presbyterian, U.S.A., seminary to become completely integrated.
