The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
Comment: I honestly don't care about the name going either way, but I will note that the alumni subcategory has already been moved (by someone other than me), and if this name change isn't done, that subcategory will have to be moved back. Also, I think 'The' has always been part of this institution's name.

Oppose. No need whatsoever for those irritatingly pompous definite articles in most article titles. Most people wouldn't dream of using them in running text. --

The?
The title for this entry really should be changed. The seminary officially refers to itself as "The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary" rather than "Southern Baptist Theological Seminary."
According to
WP:THEUNI, "A definite article should be applied only if The is used in running text throughout university materials and if that usage has caught on elsewhere. Otherwise, do not use the definite article for universities." If "The" is not commonly used when people talk about the school, it should not be in the title.
