==History and influence==

Protopresbyter [[Georges Florovsky]] was instrumental in its founding after his departure from [[Orthodox Theological Institute of St. Sergius (Paris, France)]]. It has counted among its deans Protopresbyters [[Alexander Schmemann]], [[John Meyendorff]], and [[Thomas Hopko]]—nearly a who's who list of twentieth century [[theology]]. St. Vladimir's counts as alumni [[bishop]]s and [[priest]]s of many jurisdictions, professors of numerous colleges, universities and seminaries, and noteworthy lay leaders in worldwide Orthodoxy. It would be difficult to overestimate the impact of the seminary on Orthodox theology in the last fifty years.
