Biographical Note
Morgan Odell was born in Moline, Illinois, and raised in Pasadena California.
Immediately after graduating from Occidental College in 1917, Odell was assigned to
serve in the World War I U.S. Army Ambulance Corps in Italy. While overseas, Odell
correspondended regularly with Ruth Sayre. After the war, Odell returned to Pasadena
and married Ruth. He also attended seminary school at the University of
Southern California and worked as a minister of Christian Education at the First
Methodist Church of Pasadena. Odell went on to the University of Chicago and earned
a doctorate in Divinity in 1931. From 1931 to 1941 Odell worked as a professor in
religion and philosophy at Occidental College.
During the 1930s, Albany College of Albany, Oregon began looking to move its campus
to Portland. After considering a number of different sites for the College, the
Lloyd and Aaron Frank family, owners of the Meier and Frank department store,
offered to sell its Fir Acres estate in the Dunthorpe neighborhood of Portland to
Albany College for $46,000. Aaron Frank, who negotiated the sell for the Frank family
insisted that the College hire Morgan Odell as its President. Odell accepted and
helped raise the money necessary to move Albany College to Fir Acres in 1942. Under
Odell's leadership, Lewis & Clark College raised its enrollment from 145 to
1,200 students, expanded its facilities, and established itself as a respected
liberal arts college. Odell retired from Lewis & Clark in 1960, went on to serve
as interim dean of the American University in Cairo and vice president for
development at Beirut College for Women. Odell died in 1984 at the age of 90.
This collection includes outgoing and incoming correspondence between Morgan Odell,
