I have an interesting tidbit for you. I know a Greek and Latin teacher at a local high school. He graduated from Georgetown University in 1961, which the centennial year of the start of War Between the States. Apparently, most of the students at Georgetown in 1861 who decided to fight in the war fought for the Confederacy.
