Who knows the origin of Harvard University in America?
Harvard University is located in Cambridge, near Boston, USA. Founded in 1636, it is the oldest university in the United States. The United States was founded in 1776, nearly 40 years later than Harvard. Harvard University was founded because the British colonists at that time wanted to build a university on American soil. Because many of the founders of Harvard University are graduates of Cambridge University, the city where Harvard University is located is named Cambridge City. In fact, the original name of this university is "Cambridge College", and the current name of Harvard University comes from 1638, a dean named Harvard. When the dean died, he donated half of his savings and 400 books (at 1638, a school with only two years' schooling and only nine students in the first session, not a small amount) to this university. Later, after the House of Representatives voted, it was decided. Here is another interesting story. At Harvard University, there is a statue of Mr. Harvard. Although the statue is marked with Mr. Harvard's name, it was not carved by Mr. Harvard himself. Because Mr. Harvard didn't leave any video materials, when future generations planned to build such a sculpture, there was no template, so they had to find a handsome student from Harvard University as a sculpture model instead of Mr. Harvard. Due to the lack of video materials, it is not uncommon for American universities to replace primitive people with more handsome students as sculpture models.
