As an undergraduate at Harvard. Cary was connected with the Freshman Red Book, the Dramatic Club, the Lampoon, and the Harvard Monthly. During the Great War, he enlisted in July, 1917, served in the 301st Field Signal Battalion, and rose from the rank of private to sergeant. His service in France lasted from July, 1918 until May, 1919.

Benedict, who graduated from the College in 1923, returned to Harvard in 1926 as a graduate student in English, and as assistant in the records office in the following year he became dean of records, a position which he held for two years.
