Presbyterian Seminary (Location Key)

The seminary where Hightower receives his ministerial training in Light in August appeals to him as a set of "quiet and safe walls within which the hampered and garmentworried spirit could learn anew serenity" (478). It is also there, however, that he meets and marries his wife, the daughter of one of the seminary instructors, who is "desperate" to escape those metaphorical walls (480). We are assuming the Seminary is in Mississippi, but it could be elsewhere.
