Biography

The Anaheim College was a proposed junior college (approximately 1963-1964) of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Anaheim California.

The college was part of a proposal by Ernest Wilkinson to expand junior colleges to various states. Brigham Young University bought 135 acres for the Anaheim college, but it was never built. Odell MacConnel Associates were the educational planning consultants who put together the proposal for the Anaheim campus.
