During the Civil War the school relocated to Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. In 1859 Chicago entrepreneur and Presbyterian layman Cyrus H. McCormick and his wife, Nettie Fowler McCormick, became the seminary's major financial patrons.

Several campus buildings are named for McCormick family members including McCormick Hall, Fowler Hall, and Virginia Library. After Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination in 1968, seminary faculty and students were active in the civil rights movement and provided assistance to displaced and injured participants.

Richard Yates Dear Sir Will you please inform Col. Gridly what disposition was made of my application as Med Examiner for sick and disabled Soldiers who are home on Furloughs and who are unable to return. Since I saw you I have been extending the Furloughs of such soldiers. But I think it would be much better if I was appointed. That such provisions should be made for the soldiers I have long been satisfied. It must be apparent to anyone who will reflect for a moment that such should be the case. It is much better for the soldiers to remain home 20 or 30 days or if necessary longer in order that he may return and be of service to the Country. And they can improve much faster with kind and dear Friends and proper Medical treatment than for them to return to the Hospital or their Regiment. If I could be appointed as Medical examiner for the District I think I could perfect a plan that would be for the benefit not only for the soldiers but for the Government. I have been in the Practice of Med for 25 years and I think I am prepared to know <hr />if a Soldier is unfit for duty and I think I would act in good faith for both Parties. Soldiers are not in a condition to go to Springfield who are Feeble and Debilitated to report and it is useless to put them in the Hospital. Neither are they prepared to incur the expense of going from Home as most of them are in [shortened?] circumstances. I sent a certificate of Disability of a Soldier since I saw you to Col James Oakes and he returned it to me saying the soldier would have to go to his Regiment or to the nearest Hospital for treatment. I have extended the Furloughs of quite a good many since I saw you from 20 to 30 days owing to this Condition. The way I do is to give them a certificate of Disability and sending a Duplicate to the Regiment or Hospital in regard to their Condition and how long I think it will be before they will be fit for duty. I don't wish to bring myself into any trouble in doing so neither do I wish to bring the Soldiers into Trouble. Therefore I hope I may be appointed by the proper authorities in order to make the examination valid all around. Any references that may be required in regard to My Standing as a Practicing Physician I can furnish if required. let me hear from you and you will oblige Yours Truly Henry Conkling MD Apply for.

Pittsburg Pa. March 27th 1861 His Excellency Governor Yates Sir. Some days ago, while here at Pittsburg, on a geological tour of exploration in the now famous mineral-oil regions of Pensylvania and Ohio, I received a letter from Gov. Koerner, informing me that you would stay at Washington some weeks longer, and that, although you had not arrived at a final decision, you contemplated making some change in the geological survey. A few days previous Ii had received a communication from Mr. Worthen, a copy <hr /> of which I enclose. While he evidently speaks without authority, its purport relieves me of all obligation towards the writer; and in case you should decide upon removing Mr. Worthen, I wish you would consider me an applicant for the place. Still I do not wish in any way to sollicit his removal, and you will recollect my mentioning to you, that by every change a certain amount of experience, and consequently of labor, would be lost to the state. If, however, you consider a change desirable, and wish to give more prominence to the development of practical results, I hope I may be able to give satisfaction if you and the other members of the Executive board should see fit to entrust me with the charge of the survey. Last week i went to Washington, and thence to Philadelphia, where I had been <hr /> informed I would find you; but being prevented from extending my stay, I am now on my way West. You will perceive that my private affairs as well as the survey suffer under the present state of suspence. You would, therefore, do me a great favor by causing, if possible, an action of the board in your absence, if that is to last much longer, or by giving me, at least, some intimation of your intentions.
