Community Life
The 1892 Club provides a dedicated space and time to develop relationships and mentorships through a formal program and open times for fellowship for all current PhD students at SBTS, across all schools, departments, and stages of the program, in addition to all professors. If you are in one of these groups, you’re already a member of the 1892 Club!
The club meets most Wednesday afternoons during term time:
Wednesdays from 1:00 – 2:15 PM
The club focuses primarily on creating opportunities to hear from professors, visiting scholars, students, and others about topics relevant to our PhD community (Norton 206).

The Doctoral Common Room is a dedicated space on the third floor of the SBTS Library for our doctoral students to foster community, mentoring, inter-disciplinary conversations, and more.
The Doctoral Common Room is a room dedicated solely to Southern Seminary’s doctoral students. The room is located on the third floor of the Library and can be accessed using the code provided by the Research and Professional Doctoral Studies Offices. The Office of Doctoral Studies invites all Ph.D., Ed.D., D.Miss., D.Min., and D.Ed.Min students to use the room whenever the Library is open. We only ask that students abide by the posted guidelines.
Every weekday (except Wednesday) at 2:30 pm, the Office of Doctoral Studies provides coffee for a time of fellowship and inter-disciplinary conversation. All doctoral students may attend.
