He was educated in private schools and at Columbia College, graduating in 1881, where his literary gifts attracted wide attention.

He was among several faculty members appointed to newly created chairs when he became Anthon Professor of Latin Language and Literature at the celebration of the 150th anniversary of Columbia's founding in 1904.
