Log College

The Log College, founded in ca. 1726, was the first theological seminary serving Presbyterians in North America, and was located in what is now Warminster, Pennsylvania. It was founded by William Tennent and operated from 1726 or 1727 until William Tennent's death in 1746, and it graduated proponents on the New Side of the significant Old Side-New Side Controversy that divided presbyterianism in colonial America at the time. The Log College was, as a physical structure, very plain according to George Whitefield's journal; it was a purely a private institution and had no charter, though as a ministers training college it was innovative, insofar as its founding was at a time when there were few college-educated ministers in North America. In sources dated through the early 20th century, it was referred to as a remarkable institution, with graduates including Samuel Finley, John Redman, and John Rowland. Though the number of eventual graduates is unknown (perhaps being 20 or less), many would play important roles in Old Side-New Side Controversy, and Log College alumni Samuel Blair, Samuel Finley, and William Tennent, Jr. would become trustees of a newly formed College of New Jersey, which would be renamed Princeton University in 1896.
==Founding==

The College was "organized at the Forks of the Neshaminy in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, by the Reverend William Tennent to which on its removal to land given him on the York Road near Hartsville in the same county" and "the name 'Log College' was scoffingly given." The location is in what is now Warminster, Pennsylvania. It was founded in 1726 or 1727, and operated until William Tennent's death in 1746. Founded at a time when there were few college-educated ministers in North America, the Log College had no charter and was purely a private institution. The physical structure of the Log College was about 20 feet long and 20 feet wide—and very plain according to George Whitefield's journal.
