But in September 1909, the studio of Schervee and Bushong was commissioned to take the group photo for a series of lectures at Clark University, Worcester, that was quite noteworthy. They were conducted by the Austrian neurologist Sigmund Freud, on the discipline of psychoanalysis at Clark's Psychology, Pedagogy, and School Hygiene Conference.
