From the above link-Professor (Baltimore connection)
In late 1883, Wilson entered Johns Hopkins University, a new graduate institution in Baltimore modeled after German universities.[37] Wilson hoped to become a professor, writing that "a professorship was the only feasible place for me, the only place that would afford leisure for reading and for original work, the only strictly literary berth with an income attached."[38] During his time at Johns Hopkins, Wilson took courses by eminent scholars such as Herbert Baxter Adams, Richard T. Ely, and J. Franklin Jameson.[39] Wilson spent much of his time at Johns Hopkins writing Congressional Government: A Study in American Politics, which grew out of a series of essays in which he examined the workings of the federal government.[40] He received a Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins in 1886.[41]
