The February 23, 1905 issue of the Colorado Transcript announced that Simon Guggenheim had donated $50,000 for the construction of a building in honor of his newly born son. In announcing the exciting news to the faculty and student body, President Alderson remarked that “He hoped that every rich man having a son born would follow the excellent example”
