It lies 20.3 miles north-west of Hattiesburg, MS (from Hattiesburg, MS: bearing 323°T), and is situated 6.7 miles south-south-east of Collins.

Small creeks and bayous, often veiled by overhanging branches, meander through the lowlands, their waters reflecting the dappled sunlight that filters through the canopy. The sky above Seminary tends to be vast, a canvas for dramatic sunsets that paint the clouds in hues of orange and deep violet, a quiet spectacle that marks the end of each day. The history of Seminary is deeply rooted in the agricultural traditions of the region, once a significant cotton-growing area. The name itself hints at a past educational endeavor, though the specifics of its founding are now woven into the fabric of local lore. Today, the economy of Seminary is characterized by a blend of agriculture, with cattle ranching and timber production remaining important, and a growing presence of small businesses catering to the local population. There are no grand monuments or bustling tourist attractions, but rather a quiet dignity in its everyday life, a sense of continuity that flows from the land and the enduring spirit of its people.
