We are experiencing growth in our student body of 10-15% per year with record enrollments over the past two years. Because of such growth, the need to move into a larger facility has become imperative:

  • The Seminary currently has only two classrooms, one seating 25-30, the other 20-25
  • Faculty members in some cases must share a small office and do not have adequate space for their reference libraries
  • Some library materials must be kept in storage due to the lack of space
  • Four staff members currently share one room. Though the Seminary maintains an extremely low administrative overhead, the addition of personnel is essential to meet the Seminary's educational goals. Space, however, is not available
  • Environmental issues such as mold in our current facilities require attention
  • The current facility is not compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act - a detriment to staff members and students with mobility issues

In 2003 a new facility was purchased for the benefit of the Seminary. Located just a quarter mile from our current location, the "Old Taylors" High School requires major renovation to make it suitable for occupancy. Greenville Seminary began a campaign in 2003 to raise funds, and we need your help to complete this work. Funds donated to the Capital Funds Campaign will:

  • Contribute to the resources for the renovation of the "Old Taylors" High School building to provide Greenville Seminary with three classrooms, eleven faculty offices, four administrative offices, reception area, enlarged student lounge, board/seminar room, and a community bookstore
  • Provide room for a 30,000 volume enhanced library for improved theological research and study, and establish a fund for reproducing important out-of-print historical/theological manuscripts
  • Save an important landmark in an historic textile town in Greenville County which has become an economically-depressed area of the Upstate in South Carolina.
