History

Stevens–Henager, one of the oldest colleges in Utah, was opened September 1891 by Professor James Ayers Smith, an educator from Nebraska, as the Inter-Mountain Business College with an enrollment of 7 pupils. It began teaching commercial subjects and placed graduates in business positions. Paul Kenneth Smith, son of James Ayers Smith, began as the typewriter machinist and later served as an instructor at the college. For about 19 years, Stevens–Henager College was known as Intermountain Business College. A Biennial Catalogue for enrollment 1908-09 shows the schools name as The Smithsonian Business College and Shorthand School, 258 Twenty Fourth Street, Ogden, Utah. The faculty and staff were James A. Smith, President, Lecturer in Commercial Law and Political Economy, Instructor in Commercial Arithmetic, Theory of Accounts and Practical Business. Anna L. Smith-Moore, Principal of the Shorthand Department and Instruction of English. Mrs. T. C. Gordon, Associate Principal in Shorthand and Type Writing Department. Mabel Wells-Smith, Instructor of Shorthand and Type Writing. Catherine G. Carnahan Assistant Principal in Commercial and Business Departments. Jennie V. Olsen, Assistant Instructor, Nigh School and Paul Kenneth Smith. In 1910, Professor J. A. Smith retired and sold the school to Mr. C. S. Springer, who changed the name to the Smithsonian Business School. In 1938, the college was purchased by Dr. David B. Moench, son of Louis F. Moench, a Utah educator and the first principal of Weber Stake Academy, which later became Weber State College. It then became known as the Moench University of Business and operated as such until 1940, when it was purchased by I. W. Stevens and renamed Ogden Business College. The name was changed to Stevens–Henager College in 1959.[4]

Stevens-Henager has its main campus in Ogden, Utah. In 1978, the college established a campus in Provo. Other campuses followed including Salt Lake City Campus in Utah in 1999, Logan Campus in Utah in 2001, and Boise Campus in 2004 in Idaho.
