Harvardinates

John Leverett, first secular President of Harvard (1708-1724), used Harvardinates (sons of Harvard), instead of Sons of the Prophets, to refer to Harvard alumni.

This is the story of opening up Harvard, and all higher education in North America, to a wider audience - which is still a trend in progress.
