Title: Empty chairs at Concordia opening.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-45999 EMPTY CHAIRS AT CONCORDIA OPENING ST. LOUIS -- Chairs which last year held faculty members stand empty during services opening the 136th academic year at Concordia Theological Seminary in St. Louis. Concordia, the largest Lutheran seminary in North America a year ago, is now the smallest seminary of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. Fall enrollments for the Synod’s Concordia Seminary in Springfield, Ill., and for St. Louis’ Seminex, known as “Concordia Seminary in Exile,” will both be more than double that of Concordia in St. Louis. Seminex was created last February after Dr. John Tietjen was suspended as president of Concordia and most of the 450 resident students and more than 40 faculty members declared a moratorium on classes to protest the suspension. The striking faculty were dismissed and they and the dissenting students set up Seminex. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (A-SL-9B-74-DS)

Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-45930 NAWR MEETING ST. LOUIS -- At top, Cardinal John Carberry of St. Louis welcomes Sister Catherine Pinkerton, C.S.J., chairperson of the National Assembly of Women Religious, to St. Louis University, which hosted the organization’s 4th annual convention.
