The chief training schools for the Unitarian ministry in Europe are the Unitarian College in Klausenburg, Hungary; the Manchester Col lege, Oxford, England ; the Unitarian Bonie Mis siona•y College, Manchester, England: and the Presbyterian College, Carmarthen. Wales. In America the Unitarian ministry is chi elly sup plied from two undenominational divinity schools, which were founded by Unitarians and are maintained largely by Unitarians, but which require no dogmatic tests and which welcome alike in faculty and student body members of all denominations. These two 6chools are: (1) The Harvard Divinity School, situated at Cambridge, Mass., in connection with Harvard University (q.v.), and (2) the Meadville Theo logical School, founded in Meadville, Pa.. in 1844, which like the Harvard Divinity School, enjoys an ample endowment. The charter of the Meadville School provides that "no doctrine or text shall ever be made a condition of depriving any of the opportunities of instruction in this school." BIBLIOGRAPHY.
