BACHMAN'S INVOLVEMENT IN
EDUCATION & ACADEMIA

The Rev. John Bachman was a firm believer in religious and secular education and played pivotal roles in the establishment of Newberry College (1856, first college building pictured above)--South Carolina's Lutheran-affiliated liberal arts undergraduate institution--and the Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary (LTSS) at Pomaria SC (1830, original building pictured below). Pastors and other church professionals are still trained at LTSS, which is now in Columbia SC about 40 miles from Newberry.
