In 1905, the Department of Religion was renamed the Department of Theology within the Normal School of Brigham Young University. It taught several religious courses with the goal to "awaken the spiritual life ... and [foster] the development of a warm personal testimony of the Gospel." In 1906, the general education departments, including the Department of Theology, were absorbed by the High School. Normal Students would then take their general education classes from the High School or from the College, while still receiving teacher training coursework from the Normal School.
