Strong, Augustus Hopkins

   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.02 sec.

Strong, Augustus Hopkins (1836–1921)

US Protestant theologian and educator. President of the Rochester Seminary from 1872 to 1912, he produced theological works, including Systematic Theology (1886), that sought a middle ground between conservative and liberal doctrine. He helped interest John D Rockefeller, a former parishioner, in higher education; Rockefeller later founded the University of Chicago.

He was born in Rochester, New York. The son of a newspaper publisher, he graduated from Yale in 1857 and the Rochester Theological Seminary in 1859, and held Baptist pastorates in Massachusetts and Ohio.
