Clippings and announcements about Taylor’s appointment to the Chicago Theological Seminary, materials on Taylor’s courses, correspondence and minutes of the Seminary’s Board of Directors, a bound volume of personal greetings to Taylor by former students, publications by and about the Seminary, and materials on the Seminary’s Graham Taylor Hall (built 1926) comprise this series. Taylor was invited to teach at the Seminary while he was still a pastor at the Hartford Fourth Congregational Church. His passion for helping poor communities and his independent streak brought him to Chicago to fulfill this mission. Taylor served in various capacities at the seminary from 1892 to 1921; it was the only salary he ever drew, and he used that salary to fund all of his other projects, including the Commons. In 1914 the Seminary became a part of the University of Chicago, and in 1926 the University and the Seminary honored Taylor by building new quarters for the Seminary and naming the main structure Graham Taylor Hall.
