| The seminary's origins can be traced to 1867, as part of the Freedmen's College of North Carolina and later as a part of the Biddle Memorial Institute in Charlotte, which was renamed Johnson C. Smith University in 1923. The seminary then became Johnson C. Smith Theological Seminary, named, as was the University, for the husband of benefactor Mrs. Jane Berry Smith. In 1969, Johnson C. Smith Theological Seminary, one of 11 theological institutions of the Presbyterian Church, USA, relocated to Atlanta and became a constituent of The ITC.
The mission of Johnson C. Smith Theological Seminary, the only historically African-American seminary of the ten theological institutions of the PC(USA), is to recruit, educate, nurture, train, and send forth men and women - primarily African-American - to serve as leaders in the PC(USA) and in society.
