History

Nashotah House was founded by three young deacons of the Episcopal Church, James Lloyd Breck, William Adams, and John Henry Hobart - all recent graduates of General Theological Seminary in New York City, at the bidding of Bishop Jackson Kemper.
Nashotah House was, from the beginning, a center for High Church thought and discipline. Breck, the first dean, was highly committed to the principles of the Oxford Movement. Later, famous professors such as James DeKoven would bring Anglo-Catholic worship and practice to the seminary. This began with the daily celebration of the Eucharist as well as the use of vestments, candles, and incense.

Student Life

Nashotah began as a community of self-help, and it has largely stayed that way. All students have work crew assignments - cleaning bathrooms, mowing lawns, sweeping floors, and taking other chores. Daily routine includes Morning Prayer, Mass, Breakfast, Classes, Lunch, and Solemn Evensong. Always anticipated on the campus is the annual Lavabo Bowl, a flag football game played against Seabury-Western Theological Seminary.
