THE PRINCETON PLAN
As the church grew in numbers, with the
growth Of the country, other seminaries and
schools were formed. some OF them on SUBJ

This plan provides board of directors, NOT

Other seminaries, organized under different
plans. have become connected with the church,
either by contract relations or through its
synods and presbyteries. or through the action
OF their boards in seeking the Endorsement Of
the church, ia order to obtain funds and stu

TO the church in any of its agencies. In the
case OF Lane. the only reference to the
