Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School
The Rochester Theological Seminary was formed in 1850 at the founding of the University of Rochester by a group from Colgate Theological Seminary in Hamilton, NY who wished to move to an urban setting. By 1928, the remainder of the Hamilton seminary moved to Rochester. In 1961, the school was joined by the Baptist Missionary Training School, a woman's school from Chicago. Again in 1970 the school merged, this time with Crozer Theological Seminary, the Baptist School from Upland, PA where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. studied.
