His doctoral thesis, supervised by Merritt Lyndon Fernald, is entitled "A Monographic Study of the Genus Lechea". With Lyman B. Smith, Hogdon collected plants in Virginia, the Florida Keys, and Cuba in 1936 and in Kentucky in 1937. ... he traveled extensively: to Tennessee and Michigan while pursuing his doctoral dissertation; to Cuba in 1936, prodigiously collecting for the Gray Herbarium in a post-doctoral assignment at Harvard; to Kentucky in 1937; to Mexico and California in 1938; and to Alaska in 1952. He traveled to the Caribbean on vacations in the 1960s with his wife, Audrey, to Great Britain in 1964, Scotland and Ireland in 1966 with family, to Europe in 1968, to Puerto Rico where he visited his student, David Conant, in 1973, and later to the Galápagos Islands (Bogle 1978).

Hodgdon Herbarium in his honor. One of "Doc" Hodgdon's major achievements was the development of the University of New Hampshire Herbarium, expanding considerably from the original 1,500 specimens moved to Durham from Hanover in 1892. ... When he retired, the UNH Herbarium housed over 118,000 specimens, including ca. 82,000 vascular plants, 36,000 marine algae, and a small number of bryophytes, lichens, and fungi.
