Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary (GGBTS) is a graduate school affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. The theological seminary system has five campuses: Mill Valley CA, Brea CA, Scottsdale AZ, Vancouver WA, and Centennial CO. During the 2010–11 academic year, there were more than 2,000 enrolled, making it one of the largest seminaries in the United States. The seminary is accredited by the Association of Theological Schools in the United States and Canada and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges. == History == GGBTS was originally founded in 1944 in Oakland, California, at the Golden Gate Baptist Church. The seminary was moved to Berkeley shortly thereafter. It later moved again and in 1959 it held its first classes at its main campus in Mill Valley designed by architect John Carl Warnecke.〔http://cdnc.ucr.edu/cgi-bin/cdnc?a=d&d=SN19570119.2.75〕 Since its establishment GGBTS has expanded to include several satellite campuses in addition to the Mill Valley site. These campuses are located in Brea, California; Vancouver, Washington; Scottsdale, Arizona; and Centennial, Colorado. As of June 30, 2011, GGBTS has an endowment valued at $14.6 million. On April 1, 2014, President Jeff Iorg announced the sale of the school's Marin County campus. The sale, to North Coast Land Holdings, was unanimously approved by the seminary’s board of trustees. A two-year transition will see the seminary relocate its primary campus to Southern California, where it already maintains a satellite campus, and the creation of a new, satellite Bay Area campus. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
