ATLANTA (AP) - An Atlanta seminary is delaying its planned move to a location at Morris Brown College until it can assess how the school's financial problems might affect the seminary.
    
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports (http://bit.ly/Q2gRvs) that the Interdenominational Theological Center  recently spent $400,000 improving Morris Brown's student center, planning to move classes there while the religious school underwent major renovations.
    
Given Morris Brown's recent bankruptcy filing, seminary officials say they're trying to figure out their next steps.
    
The historically black Atlanta college faces possible foreclosure. Court records show that Morris Brown has not paid some of its employees for months.
