Despite the name, this is not a divinity school

[edit]

I notice that people have added categories and "see also" links reflecting a belief that this is a seminary. It is not, at least not for the past few hundred years! It houses no divinity students or faculty. Oxford does have a Department of Theology but it isn't housed in the building. As far as I know, Oxford does not have a separate seminary--though back in the Middle Ages when it began, it was all seminary, all aimed at educating young clergy. That's probably where the name of this building came from.

Check out what Oxford's own website says about it. [1] betsythedevine (talk) 09:17, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
