Carl Dauten earned his AB, MA and PhD from Washington University. He served as professor of finance and banking in the Washington University School of Business and Public Administration. His administrative services at Washington University included vice chancellor for administration, vice chancellor and associate provost, and executive vice chancellor. Outside of the university he served as chairman of the Board of Directors of Concordia Publishing House, was the associate editor of the Journal of Finance and wrote several books, some of which served as texts for college business courses. He was also a member of several honorary societies.

Thomas G. Rutledge was born in October of 1917 and earned his BA from Yale University in 1940. For the following two years, he worked in the sales, advertising and production department of Anheuser-Busch, Inc. During World War II, he served as a carrier-based aircraft pilot for the U.S. Navy, and enrolled in the Washington University Law School upon leaving the Navy. He earned his LLB in 1948 and joined the law firm of Lashly, Lashly and Miller.

In 1952, he began work for McDonnell Aircraft Corporation and was vice president of the Board of Directors by 1959. In 1962, after a series of promotions, he became vice president and general counsel. A year later he died in an automobile accident while driving to work. He was a member of the Missouri Historical Society, the St. Louis Chamber of Commerce, the St. Louis Bar Association, American Bar Association and the Washington University Planning and Development Council.

Following Rutledge’s death, James S. McDonnell, Chairman of the Board of the McDonnell Aircraft Corporation and President of the Board of Directors of Washington University, donated one million dollars, part of which was in honor of his business associate, Thomas Rutledge.

In appreciation for the generous financial support of Mrs. Arthur Groman, the building was named in honor of her late husband, Donald Shanedling.
