The McGuire Center for International Studies

In Memoriam

Professor Emeritus Carl McGuire passed away on June 25, 2001 at the age of 90. Carl joined the Department in 1941. He was chairman for most of the 1960s and then an active member until his retirement in 1980. He has been a major benefactor and friend to the Department, endowing the Carl McGuire Center for International Economics upon his retirement. Indeed, it is this Center and Institute that has been instrumental in helping to make the Department a noted center of excellence in this area. Carl maintained an active interest in the Department and in international economics. I visited Carl on his 90 birthday bringing him some very recent books on the global economy. At that point he had just finished reading Keith Maskus's book Intellectual Property Rights in the Global Economy and was looking forward to discussing it with him. I know that I will sorely miss talking with him. His family has asked that those who wish to honor his memory could make memorial contributions to the Carl McGuire Center for International Economics, care of the University of Colorado Foundation.
