Of the students that attended the college during its short life was Emeline Grover Rich, the polygamous fifth wife of Mormon Apostle Charles C. Rich. Rich had already gained some renown as a local healer and midwife, but came to Morgan in pursuit of her medical degree. Within four months she had her diploma, and a short time later, she was added as a member of the faculty, specializing in obstetrics.
