Centennial Celebration

In 2008, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary celebrates its 100th year! Since its founding on March 14, 1908 by B.H. Carroll, Southwestern has trained and sent out more than 40,000 graduates to serve in churches, mission fields and ministries around the world. Join us as we reflect on this glorious heritage and look forward to a bright future of Kingdom work.

Throughout the year, we will be celebrating many centennial events, including our Founder’s Day Celebration on March 14. Make sure you’re present for these once-in-a-lifetime events, and follow the links to find out more about individual dates.
