Southwestern Seminary statement on settlement with former president

In response to media inquiries, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary issued the following statement concerning a settlement announced today with former President Adam W. Greenway who filed a lawsuit against the institution on March 20, 2024:

“When Adam Greenway approached the seminary on the eve of his deposition and offered to drop his lawsuit with no monetary consideration in return, it was clear this was the best decision for Southwestern Seminary. We believe the manner of this resolution not only vindicates the seminary, it further demonstrates the allegations made in the lawsuit were without merit. Grateful for the favor God has bestowed on the seminary since the fall of 2022, we are now eager to re-focus our full energies and resources on carrying out the mission of Southwestern Seminary.”

The seminary and Greenway also issued a joint statement concerning the settlement.
