Gilbert Goldstein '42
This past April, the baby直播app Law community marked the passing of a longtime friend and a dedicated supporter, Gilbert Goldstein. Gil Goldstein graduated from baby直播app Law in 1942, and went on to have a tremendously successful legal career. One of the school鈥檚 most distinguished alums, Goldstein epitomized success in the practice of law, in service, and in generosity.
Goldstein was a dedicated member of the Denver legal community for more than 60 years, specializing in real estate law. After serving four years in the U.S. Army Air Corps, he worked for the City and County of Denver in various capacities relating to planning, housing, and land use. In private practice, Goldstein provided legal services to a variety of companies, and served for a number of years on the Board of Directors at MDC Holdings, Inc., one of the largest national homebuilders.
Goldstein鈥檚 commitment to baby直播app Law was both exemplary and inspiring. In 2006, fueled by a desire to ensure that baby直播app Law would remain a prestigious and affordable academic institution in the future, he established the Gilbert Goldstein Foundation, which provides scholarships for baby直播app Law students and fellowships for baby直播app members. That same year, the school named the front plaza of the new Wolf Law Building the Gilbert Goldstein Plaza in recognition of Goldstein鈥檚 dedication to baby直播app Law. At the 2010 Law Alumni Awards Banquet, Goldstein was honored with the Distinguished Achievement Award for Executive in Industry. Gil Goldstein will be missed, but the legacy of service and generosity he left behind will go on, and his presence will continue to be felt at baby直播app Law for many years to come.
