History of Commons
Harold Commons joined Baptist Bible Seminary’s executive committee in 1933. A year later he was unanimously elected the seminary’s second President, an office that he held until 1936. President Commons’ intense convictions were complimented by his spirit of humility. Known for his compassion and approachability, he was well-loved by both his students and fellow faculty members. Commons Hall is so-named in recognition of his valued contribution during some of the school’s most formative years.
