520 |a As a doddering old man in 1850, Lyman Beecher told his children about the religious conditions at Yale College fifty-five years earlier. His words have become familiar to students of American religious history. The school had been “in a most ungodly state” when he entered as a student in 1795, he recalled.

Dwight transformed religious life at the college and, together with his students, rejuvenated the congregational churches of New England.
