Actually, I'm impressed that you could identify the abolitionist general for whom Howard University is named.  He was the director of the Freedmen's Bureau during Reconstruction.  A great man, often referred to as the "Christian General."  The only BLSS Certified Hypocrite on BA "It is better to be an optimist and be proven a fool than to be a pessimist and be proven right."

It's like an in-game blog of sorts. "Good leaders being scarce, following yourself is allowed."

Yes, one of my favorites, too, the little boy from Lancaster, Ohio.  Do you know that he's now recognized as the first president of LSU, which the institution you cite evolved out of?  In fact, they are thinking of naming a building after him.  They also moved his picture in the administrative building out of the basement into a more prominent place.  Progress is being made.  Gen. Howard was a wing commander under Cump on the March to the Sea.  For more information on the many misconceptions of Sherman's march, which your students could have benefited by reading, please click here for an article by an A&M history professor: Myths of Sherman's March."  Sorry folks for the "thread drift" -- the error is completely mine, but when it comes to the Late Rebellion, I sometimes can't help myself.
