n 1966, Elizabeth Raftery published a little book entitled Berkeley’s Three Founders. Miss
Raftery served BDS for many years, first as secretary to the dean, later as registrar, and
then as historian. She was asked by Dean Wilmer to give a Founders’ Day talk that ultimately resulted in this short history. In it, she writes,
When one thinks of the founder or founders of a school or an institution, one pictures a person
or group of persons who have pored over plans, gathered money from whatever sources they
could find, and at last are pictured receiving a charter, turning over a piece of sod, or sealing a
cornerstone, and the founding date is fixed forever.
But, as in many other ways Berkeley is unique, we have three founders in three places in three
centuries. In the eighteenth century, Bishop Berkeley created in the new world a seminary
which, true to his philosophical theories, existed only in his mind. In the nineteenth century
Bishop Williams founded the School visibly in Middletown, Connecticut. And in the twentieth
century Dean Ladd established it here in New Haven. … Common to all was the vision and
venture of our motto, “in illa quae ultra sunt”—into those regions which are beyond.
In this, the fortieth year of our
full affiliation with Yale Divinity
School, I would like to propose in
the spirit of Miss Raftery’s account,
that it should be extended to include
a fourth founder: Dean Michael
Allen, whose vision it was to create
this unique partnership.
Dean Allen came to BDS in
1970, when the trustees had already
made a decision that the School
should be “closed without incident,”
or if possible, that the new dean

Krumm of Southern Ohio, and Elizabeth Raftery
The Dean’s Letter (cont’d from page 1)
should find an alternative means for its continuation. Upon his arrival, Dean Allen
faced an institution in turmoil. He set up the faculty and student body as a “participatory democracy,” the Berkeley Assembly, in which each person would have one vote.
Providentially, Allen was an old friend of YDS’s new dean, Colin Williams, and the
two of them began to explore the possibility of a closer affiliation between the two
schools (BDS had already been in a loose affiliation with Yale since the time of its move
to New Haven in 1928).
Dean Allen recalls that he and Dean Williams were concerned that YDS also had
challenges of its own to face: the Association of Theological Schools, for instance, was
alarmed about the relative lack of professional education. As the two deans first framed
the new affiliation, BDS would continue as a seminary of the Episcopal Church and
provide professional education for both schools; YDS would be responsible for the
academic program.
Berkeley also explored possible relationships with other seminaries, but in the
end the “Berkeley Assembly” chose YDS, mainly based on the votes of the students.
“Thus,” wrote Dean Allen, “I fulfilled the mandate to close the school without incident, and find a future for it that gave all of us the option of a new future.”
In retrospect, the decision to enter into a partnership with Yale was exceptionally forward looking. As time has evolved, Berkeley’s influence as a denominational
seminary on the professional studies dimension of YDS has strengthened its curriculum, and helped to keep the Master of Divinity program focused and vital. Yale’s
academic standards have, in turn, continued to keep the bar set high for Berkeley’s
programs of formation and education for ministry.
The result is an enviable arrangement which is now widely regarded as a powerful model for theological education in the twenty-first century. Not only do Berkeley
students have access to the full resources of Yale University, but BDS’s programs in
spiritual formation, leadership development, global engagement, religion and ecology, urban ministry, and educational ministry reinforce and deepen YDS’s curricular
offerings. Moreover, in conjunction with YDS, Berkeley is able to choose its students
from an array of fine applicants. The resulting selectivity creates a dynamic educational environment for intellectual growth and spiritual formation. And working
within the constraints imposed by being part of a university, BDS now maintains the
fiscal discipline of balanced budgets and careful management of financial resources.
Miss Raftery finished her Founders’ Day address by praising the three Founders—
Berkeley, Williams and Ladd—as “great men, different in personality but alike in courage, scholarship, vision, simplicity, and in love and service to God and Humanity. Each
laid foundations which have been cherished, strengthened, and enlarged by successive
deans …” Surely on this fortieth anniversary of a courageous and fruitful decision,
Dean Michael Allen can be added as the fourth on the list of Berkeley’s Founders.

Into the Regions Beyond: Graduation 2011
O
n Saturday, 21 May 2011 at 4:00 p.m., the graduating class
of 2011, parents, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends gathered in Marquand Chapel to celebrate with a festive service
of Evensong, and the awarding of certificates, diplomas, and prizes.
In addition to the Dean and staff of Berkeley Divinity School, also
present were YDS Dean Harry Attridge, Head of Lutheran Studies and Divinity Librarian, Paul Stuehrenberg, and BDS Graduate
Society Secretary and Treasurer, Patricia Mitchell ’02.
After a stirring sermon delivered by Dean Britton, 26 students
were awarded diplomas and certificates: 18 the Diploma in Anglican Studies; 4 the Certificate in Anglican Studies; 2 the Diploma
in Lutheran Studies; and 2 the Certificate in Educational Leadership and Ministry, marking the first class to complete the ELM
program in school and college ministry.
In addition to the diplomas and certificates, eight prizes were
awarded. The E. William Muehl Prize in Preaching, awarded to
the most eloquent preacher in the graduating class was awarded to
Dane Boston. Dane is now serving at Christ Church, Greenwich,
CT, and will be ordained to the transitional diaconate next year.
The R. Lansing Hicks Prize for the graduating student who did the
most to benefit the Berkeley community during his or her time in
seminary was given to Susan Rainey Dankel. Rainey, ordained to
the priesthood this past summer, is living in North Carolina where
she serves as supply clergy. Blake Sawicky received the Thomas
Philips Memorial Award for showing exceptional achievement
and further promise in the study and practice of Anglican liturgy.
Blake, ordained to the transitional diaconate in June, is serving as
curate at St. John’s Cathedral in Denver. The St. Luke’s Award for
outstanding contribution to the worship life of BDS was awarded
to two seniors: Stephen Holton and C. Alexander Riffee. Both
were ordained to the transitional diaconate over the summer; Alex
is serving at St. James’ Church in Richmond, VA, and Stephen at
Christ Church, New Haven, CT.
In addition to those four Berkeley prizes for graduating seniors,
Octobe r 2011 | 3
one YDS prize was awarded by Dean Harry
Attridge. The Bradford E. Ableson Prize for
Ecclesiastical Leadership is awarded each
year to the student who, in the judgment
of the faculty, possesses the most outstanding qualities of judgment and character to
the future exercise of church leadership
(awarded with a preference for Anglican
students). This year, that prize was awarded
to senior Kevin Caruso. Kevin, ordained to
the priesthood over the summer, is serving
at St. Michael’s Church in Barrington, IL.
Two current students received prizes for
academic achievement: rising senior Janine
Schenone received the William Palmer
Ladd Prize; and rising middler Emilie Finn
was awarded the E. Lee McGee Prize. Also
awarded during this service was the “Palestine of Jesus” Scholarship to graduating
student Beth Tjoflat. The scholarship provides for the student to travel to St. George’s
College in Jerusalem to study the “Palestine
of Jesus.” Beth was ordained to the priesthood over the summer, and now serves the
Parish of St. Francis in-the-Field in Ponte
Vedra, FL.
Our graduates are now serving in
parishes all over the country. In addition to the parishes served by those students who received prizes, our graduates
are also serving at St. John’s Cathedral in
Los Angeles, St. Paul’s Church in Kinder4 | Be r k e l e y D iv i n i t y S c h o o l at YA L E
hook, NY, Christ Church in Philadelphia,
St. Paul’s in Salem Oregon, the Middlesex
Church Cluster in CT, St. Mark’s Church
and School in Brooklyn, All Saints’ Cathedral and School in the US Virgin Islands,
and the Iglesia Catedral del Redentor,
Madrid, Spain.
It seems that no sooner do we say goodbye to those leaving that we greet our new
students. The incoming class of twentytwo is already making its mark, beginning
their journey in illa quae ultra sunt.
Berkeley Summer Leadership Symposium
Attracts Strong Interest
“A
ddressing the Deepest Needs of Adolescents” was the topic
of Berkeley’s annual Summer Leadership Symposium last
June. Over 50 people—school chaplains and teachers and parish rectors and youth workers—enrolled in the two-day seminar at which
Berkeley’s own Tony Jarvis gave three addresses: Where Teenagers Are Today, What Teenagers Need, and Ten Commandments for
Adults Engaging Adolescents. Skip Masback (pastor of New Canaan
Congregational Church—a parish renowned for its youth program)
gave brief responses to the first two addresses. Teacher-author Patricia Lyons preached at Evensong and the Eucharist, and both she and
Dr. Masback—along with school chaplain Adam Greene ’09—led
break-out sessions for youth workers, chaplains, and teachers of
religion. Included in the symposium were Evensong, cocktails and
buffet supper at the Berkeley Center, the Eucharist, and a boxed
lunch in the Sterling Divinity Quad. Those in attendance found the
addresses stimulating and enjoyed meeting—and forming relationships with—those laboring in vineyards similar to their own.

Experiences in the Field
Berkeley students bring their summer stories back
T
his summer my fiancée Jenny
Landis (also a Berkeley student)
and I spent a month in Bondo,
a tiny village on Haiti’s southern peninsula. Our project was to build a playground at St. Marie Madeleine Episcopal
Church and School. Why, you might ask,
did we choose that project when Haiti has
so many urgent problems like starvation,
disease and environmental catastrophe?
The short answer is that our host, the Ven.
Kesner Gracia, asked us to build it. Beyond
that, we also saw this as a tangible way to
share the love of Jesus Christ with the children of the poorest of the poor.
For the past year Fr. Kesner and I have
been working together to build 38 new
homes on the church property. Our plan
has been to relocate a group of people from
a tiny island called Bidaw who were living in horrifically squalid conditions. With
the homes now completed we believed the
playground could help integrate the people
of Bidaw with the people of Bondo. After
months of prayer and planning we built a
simple playground with a swing set, seesaw, shade garden and picnic tables. The
families now occupy the homes of New
Bidaw, and their children are happily playing together with the children of Bondo.
The trip was transformative for both
Jenny and me. We see the body of Christ—
and the Episcopal Church—in a new way,
transcending borders, languages, and cultures. We were privileged to preach and read
scripture (in Creole) in Sunday worship.
We brought with us many liturgical items
donated by Connecticut churches, including altar linens from St. Thomas’s, New
Haven, French Prayer Books and a thurible
from St. John’s North Haven, incense from
Christ Church New Haven and Creole
Bibles from Christ Church Greenwich. The

trip would not have been possible without
the help and support of Pam Wesley, Berkeley’s Development Director, and generous
donations from the Seminary Consultation
on Mission (SCOM) and local parishes.
—Sam Owen ’12
I
had the joy to serve this summer as
Camp Director for the Barbara C. Harris Camp, operated by the Diocese of
Massachusetts. We had the privilege of
serving Christ in nearly one thousand kids
and families through our programs, providing formation through creative approaches
to worship and bible study, using a smallgroup model. They’re also a lot of fun!
I’m extremely grateful for my phenomenal staff, including YDS students, Krysta
Baglien and Alex Marshall. Thanks also to
Fr. Jarvis and the ELM program for better
equipping me as a leader in this ministry. I
can’t wait to return!

I
spent this summer living, working,
and praying with the Common Friars
at Good Earth Farm, a monastic movement emerging in the Episcopal Church.
The Common Friars see an intimate relationship between the Eucharist, the dinner
table, and the food they raise sustainably to
give to the hungry. As a founding member
of the Episcopal Evangelism Network, I led
formation for the friars on spiritual conversations as evangelism and conducted a
missional consultation for them to develop
ministries to young adults. I want to thank
the Evangelical Education Society of the
Episcopal Church for their support of my
work with the Common Friars.

J
esus prayed for unity among his followers. What does that prayer mean when
followers of Jesus are spread around
the world and in virtually every culture, language, and context? This summer, I pursued
that question by visiting with Christians—
primarily Anglicans—in China, Nigeria,
South Sudan, and South Africa with no
agenda but to listen and learn from them.
On the mountainous and remote NigerianCameroonian border, in the contested and
conflict-ridden Abyei region in Sudan, and
on the Mongolian steppe, I found Christians interested in building a unity that
preserves the distinctiveness of our local
contexts. Most of all, I realized there’s an
essential incarnational reality at the core of
any effort to build unity. We cannot realize
God’s gift of unity to the church unless we
truly commit to our brothers and sisters in
Christ around the world.

Charles Royce’s $500,000
Gift Strengthens
Berkeley’s Leadership
Formation Initiative
B
erkeley’s distinctive Leadership
Formation initiative first came
into being through the generosity of Sara and David Carson, whose gifts
have provided the necessary funds for the
program for the past five years. Charles
Royce, longtime Episcopal Church and
Anglican Communion leader, has now
enhanced this program by endowing the
Wesley-Royce Program for Leadership
Formation. His $500,000 gift will provide
support for prominent speakers and for
colloquia on issues of national and international religious leadership. It will also
enable us to offer continuing education for
church leaders though the Summer Leadership Symposium. Berkeley is profoundly
grateful for this expansion of its efforts
to provide well-equipped leaders for the
Church of tomorrow.
Commencement 2011
2010-2011 annual Fund
Dear Alumni and Friends of Berkeley,
I am delighted to report that—thanks to the generosity of our graduates
and friends—we exceeded our Annual fund goal of $420,000 by raising
$425,677. This is an especially commendable achievement for both individuals and parishes in these difficult times!
Alumni gifts rose in both number of contributors and amount raised:
356 alumni gave $76,774; 84 friends gave $76,090; and 107 parishes contributes $193,807. Our trustees led in generosity with gifts totaling $79,005.
Heartfelt congratulations and gratitude to all of you in the Berkeley
community who pulled together in this successful endeavor. We have good
reason to celebrate!
Remember that Berkeley continues to rely heavily on our year to year
generosity. We cannot rest on our laurels. I know our seminary can count
on your strong support for the 2011-12 Annual Fund.
Faithfully yours in Christ,

Berkeley’s Ongoing
Capital Needs
As we celebrate the successful completion of the Berkeley»tomorrow Campaign, we must also address Berkeley’s
continuing urgent capital needs.
Educational Leadership
and Ministry (ELM)
Global Engagement
Berkeley has been a leader in providing chaplains and educators for schools and universities,
and in 2008 launched the first seminary program at the master’s level to prepare students for
this ministry. Initial grants have enabled ELM
to thrive under Tony Jarvis’s leadership, but we
must now provide for its future by endowing
it. The cost of that will be $3.3 million—plus a
scholarship endowment of $1 million.
The Porter Chair in Religion
and Ecology
The Porter Foundation has pledged a gift
toward a $3 million endowment to support the
H. Boone and Violet M. Porter Chair in Religion and Environmental Stewardship, of which
$1.5 million remains to be committed.
We believe that theological education must now
include mission and study trips throughout the
Anglican Communion. In order to support such
trips—and thereby encourage a passion for mission among our students—we need a fund of at
least $500,000.
Unrestricted Endowment
and Scholarships
Berkeley operates on a shoestring and needs continuing capital gifts for unrestricted endowment
and for scholarships in order to attract the most
talented students for future leadership in the
Episcopal Church and Anglican Communion.
Please remember BDS in your will. For
information on The Bishop Berkeley Society,
contact [email protected].
The Berkeley Center and
Program Endowment
To name the Berkeley Center and to provide
for its programs in Anglican formation, we
need $1 million in new endowment.
