Harvard University was founded on October 28, 1636 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It is one of the oldest institutions of higher learning in the United States and one of the eight Ivy League schools. In the 19th century, Harvard emerged as a prominent academic institution and developed multiple professional schools, which transformed it into a modern research university. As of 2025, the university has undergraduate and graduate schools of medicine, law, business, divinity, education, government, dental medicine, design, and public health.
The Harvard University: A Tabular View of the Hours of Recitations and Lectures is a pamphlet containing the class schedules of the 1845-1846 school year. A notice to parents and guardians regarding required classes based on the student's year of study is on the back of the pamphlet. Classes for college freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors are included in the recitation and lectures table.
