HOOD THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY The idea that there should be some sort of formal religious training established at Living- stone College had its inception in the mind of its founder, Dr. Joseph Charles Price. Later this idea found concrete expression under the leadership of Bishop John Walker Hood and President William Harvey Goler; and, for the most part, it developed with the steady aim of affording opportunity to young men who wished to enter the ministry. Throughout its history Hood Theological Seminary has steadfastly maintained the missionary zeal, a strong social passion, and the spirit of self-denial which its Christian founders and the man from whom it takes its name had. In cooperation with the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences it constitutes a center of liberal and theological education, equipping men and women to render efficient service in all parts of the world. Hood Theological Seminary is in close touch with the problems of A. M. E. Zion Church, with the problems of a changing community and a changing world. Its students attempt to work out solutions for the newer problems of the country. Men who are planning a ministry of the com- munity type will find Salisbury an ideal training center. 16
