- catalog description "Members of the Class of 1852 fought on both sides in the Civil War and most lived to witness the rise of Harvard from a semi-rural college to a national institution. Their college years were marked by relative order and tranquility, partly effected by the abolition of the disorderly college dining commons in 1849. With eighty-eight members, the Class of 1852 was the largest graduated to date, and also the first to be photographed to mark the occasion. Although Harvard had recently begun to grant S.B. degrees, only one class member expressed his intention to become an engineer, while almost two-thirds of those graduating saw themselves as destined for the traditional fields of law, medicine, and ministry. In all, some twenty-nine class members served in the Civil War, twenty-three in the Union army and six in the Confederate.".
