The 33rd Illinois were known as the Normal Regiment, the Teachers Regiment, and the Brains Regiment, as many of it's members came from the Illinois State Normal University and other schools in the state.

In mathematics Lee placed fourth, and received a credit of 197 of a possible 200. In French he was fifth, and was rated 98-1/4 of a possible 100. On the roll of general merit, he was put at the sum of these two ratings — 295-1/4 of a gross 300.
