Colloquium

It is particularly appropriate that Harvard, through its Graduate School of Divinity, should sponsor a convocation of Protestant and Catholic theologians and scholars to discuss problems of mutual concern. In public lectures and closed seminars, the theologians have pursued both technical theological problems, and matters of faith and conscience, informed by a sense of scholarship and impartiality.

The purpose of the Colloquium, as President Pusey and Dean Miller have made clear, is not to solve the problem of Christian unity, but to promote just this interchange of ideas, and to treat current theological issues with scholarly perspective. It is a process consistent with the highest aims of the University.
