Abstract

Calvin Henry Kauffman was born March 1, 1869, on a farm near Lebanon, Pennsylvania. Here his close contact with nature early developed an interest in botany. While still in prepratory school he studied the flora about Lebanon and started his herbarium of flowering plants. However, during his undergraduate years at Harvard, he specialized in languages and devoted but little attention to science, taking three courses in chemistry and one in botany. He received the A.B. degree from Harvard in 1895.
