NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The new name honors the Busch and Resigned families. In 1908, Adolph's Busch presented a building fund for the museum and the following year the brewery magnate made an additional gift for endowment.

A bequest from C. Hugo Reisinger '12, the son-in-law of Busch, increased the grant. Recently, Mrs. Busch Greenough, Busch's daughter and the widow of Reisinger, presented the Emdee Busch Greenough Endowment, the income of which is for unrestricted use by the museum.
