| AdminHistory | Rabbinical seminary in London, founded in 1855 by the Ashkenazi chief rabbi, Nathan Marcus Adler, with support from the Sephardi community, to train English-speaking ministers and laymen in Jewish and secular subjects, and to educate boys in a Jewish secondary school. The secondary school was closed in 1879, but the college continued to train ministers, readers, and teachers for the English-speaking world. From 1883 onward its pupils normally graduated at London University. |
