Bexley Hall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bexley Hall is a seminary of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America, with campuses in Rochester, New York and Columbus, Ohio.[1]
The seminary was established in 1824 by Bishop Philander Chase in conjunction with the establishment of Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio. Bexley Hall disassociated with Kenyon in 1968 and moved to Rochester, New York where it affiliated with Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School. In 1998, the seminary re-established a campus in Ohio through a partnership with Trinity Lutheran Seminary of Columbus, Ohio.
It gained its name from Nicholas Vansittart, 1st Baron Bexley, an early benefactor of Kenyon College.[2]
Although the seminary is no longer affiliated with Kenyon College, the 1839 seminary building in Gambier now houses fine art facilities for Kenyon, and is still known as Bexley Hall.[2]
