Gammon Theological Seminary, affectionately called “The School of the Prophets,” is located in Atlanta, Georgia, and is the United Methodist constituent member of the Interdenominational Theological Center (ITC), a consortium of six historically African American theological schools. Gammon was founded in 1883 by the Methodist Episcopal Church with assistance from the Freedman’s Aid Society. Gammon has a historic commitment to producing public theologians — men and women who are spiritually astute, intellectually keen, politically sophisticated, and culturally sensitive. The faculty and administration of Gammon/ITC create an environment where critical thinking, investigative reflection, decision-making and responsible action are fostered.
