by Lawrence L. Dodd.

guide (application/pdf)
Much of the work of Stephen B.L. Penrose,Jr. can be found to be as
applicable today as it was when his speeches were experienced first-hand and
his writings newly printed, especially when considering his defense of
Palestinian rights just as the modern state of Israel was forming. In 1942, he
wrote to his parents from New York about the danger to the Allied cause by an
attempt to get a Jewish army organized in Palestine. He believed it would set
off an Arab revolt. Until the day of his untimely death in 1954, he continued
to voice his concern about Arab-American relations and the rights of the
Palestinians. He had just completed six years as president of the American
University of Beirut when he died at forty-six. As the Palestinian
representative at the United Nations cabled Penrose’s widow Margaret “Peggy”
Penrose: "The Palestine Arab refugees lost a champion and hero."
At the time of his death, Penrose was America's best-known advocate of
Palestinian statehood. He wrote worked tirelessly for better understanding
between the Arab World and the United States. "America's stake in the Middle
East is fundamentally the possibility of losing World War III before a shot has
been fired," he warned an audience at the Delmonico Hotel in New York in
January 1951. Two years later, in May 1953, Penrose testified before the United
States Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on the Middle East that, "It is no
exaggeration to say that upon the solution to the problem of Palestine rests
not only the peace of the Middle East but very possibly of the entire world . .
. The refugee problem is a psychological one and should not be attacked on a
purely statistical basis."
Penrose was the youngest son of Whitman College's president from
1894-1934, Stephen B.L. Penrose, Sr., and Mary Shipman Penrose. Penrose, or
"Binks," was born and grew up on the Whitman campus and graduated magna cum
laude from that college in 1928, majoring in Greek and chemistry. He went
immediately after commencement to Beirut where he taught physics at the
American University of Beirut for three years. Among his friends during the
Beirut years were Charles Malik, later the Lebanese Ambassador to the United
Nations and the United States, and Emile Bustany, an internationally respected
engineer and businessman. At Columbia University, where Penrose gained a Ph.D.
in philosophy, he met Peggy Dale, who received her M.A. in Spanish studies.
They were married in Mexico City so that her parents, American missionaries to
the Mexican Indians-her mother a medical doctor and her father an
educator-could be present. The new Penrose family had three children: Margaret
Dale, Mary Shipman (Polly), and Stephen Beasley Linnard (Stevie) Penrose,
III.
Margaret Penrose received her B.A. from Erskine College and her M.A.
from Columbia University. Her educational training was in the romance languages
and before marrying Penrose she taught, for less than one year, in the American
Community School in Mexico City. After marriage she taught Spanish at Whitman
College and then began a career of helping her husband and raising a family.
Following her husband's death, Margaret was Dean of Students at Scripps
College, Claremont, California, from 1956-1962. She then became the assistant
to the Dean of the School of Public Health and Director of the Shattuck
International House, Harvard University, Boston, Massachusetts, from
1962-1978.
The road to Beirut for the Penrose family was circuitous, as they
followed Stephen Penrose as his career path developed. After stints of teaching
philosophy and psychology at Whitman College and Rockford College, he took a
job with the Near East College Association in New York City as Assistant
Director. In this position, the American University of Beirut was one of the
six American institutions for which he coordinated recruiting, funding
campaigns, and personnel support. He also wrote the history of the first
seventy-five years of American University of Beirut, That They May Have
Life. It is still in print.
After World War II broke out, Penrose joined the Office of Strategic
Services and went to Cairo, where many of those he recruited to work for him
had been his teaching colleagues in Beirut a decade earlier. He added Arabic to
his language arsenal. He returned to Washington, D.C. as Deputy Chief of Secret
Intelligence, and later became chief. This endeavor transferred him to the
European theater and when the war was over, he was decorated by the Dutch and
Polish governments and received the Bronze Star from the United States. He was
decorated by the Lebanese government posthumously. After the war, Penrose
became Special Assistant to U.S. Secretary of Defense James V. Forrestal. When
Penrose resigned to return to Beirut, Forrestal wrote him, "I am grateful for
your assurance that you will be available to assist us in the future. I only
hope that world conditions will never require us to interrupt you in this new
venture."
The "new venture" was to be inaugurated as the fourth president of the
American University of Beirut. The Penroses arrived in Lebanon in 1948 soon
after the partition of Palestine. The third General Conference of UNESCO met in
Beirut that fall and Penrose was immediately plunged into cooperative affairs
as Advisor to the United States Delegation. These associations continued
throughout his presidency. The day before he died he chaired a meeting of
UNESCO's International Committee for the Translation of the Classics into
Arabic. He was a corporate member-at-large of the American Board of
Commissioners of Foreign Missions and kept up ties with Phi Beta Kappa, the
American Philosophical Association, and the Royal Central Asian Society of
London. His interests were wide-ranging and the contacts and associations, so
essential to any fund-raiser, which he brought to bear on his new job, were
legion. The Ford Foundation soon became a major donor to the university, and
the first American government grant was made to American University of Beirut
in 1950. Later his colleagues would say of him that "he steers the University
with steadfast faith to a position of renewed strength and esteem throughout
the Arab World."
During his six years as president, Penrose established an Arab Studies
Program, Schools of Engineering and Agriculture, the Department of Public
Administration, an Institute of Economic Research, School of Public Health, the
Office of Dean of Students (he had served a year as assistant Dean of Men at
Whitman College), and an effective Student Council. New buildings changed the
look of the campus-on-the-Mediterranean: the Bechtel School of Engineering, the
Jafet Memorial Library, the Gulbenkian Infirmary, faculty apartments, a new
wing for the University Hospital, and a classroom building and farm complex for
the School of Agriculture. Two Arab vice presidents were appointed.
At the same time, Penrose continued to be a public spokesman for
Arab-American relations and to brief every American tourist who ventured to
Beirut. Some of these tourists arrived by cruise ship, others on motor bike,
and still others, like Dorothy Thompson the journalist, on assignment. The
alumni family of Jafet came from Rio de Janeiro to see their library dedicated.
Helen Keller came to visit schools for the blind in Lebanon and addressed a
university chapel session.

Content Description
The overall focus of this collection features the Beirut period of the
lives of Stephen B.L. and Margaret Dale Penrose. The largest series of this
collection contains the correspondence to and from Stephen and Margaret. These
letters detail their everyday interactions and business endeavors, especially
as related to the American University in Beirut. Researchers should note that
many letters were generated and received by Margaret before and after his
death. Her chronicles of their personal life are rich in detail and add
significant depth to a knowledge of their lives in Lebanon. The items relating
to Stephen reflect his wide interests and pursuits: professor of philosophy,
university president, spy, Palestinian advocate, United States bureaucrat,
Congregational Church lay preacher, and devoted family member. The remainder of
this collection is divided into series containing photographs, information
regarding the American University in Beirut, Penrose's speeches, recognition of
his work, his and others' writings on Palestine and its people, transcriptions
of interviews, the Near East College Association, his OSS activities, his
contributions to Whitman College alumni publications, his death and ensuing
tributes, and, a collection of papers based upon research on this collection.
In addition, a small yet important series contains a bound copy of the annual
reports for the Syrian Protestant College, which was the forerunner of the
American University of Beirut. (Please note: for clarity, Stephen is referred
to as Penrose.)
