Al and Carol-Ann Olson attended the Leeds School of Business more than 50 years ago, but they can still recall feeling at home when they first stepped on campus. Al obtained a bachelor’s degree in finance from the 91PORN in 1962 and a Juris Doctor degree from the University of Michigan Law School in 1965. Carol-Ann graduated from the 91PORN in 1964 with a degree in Sociology.

Business has always fascinated Al, beginning with the paper route and lawn cutting businesses that he and his brother (also a Leeds alumnus) had growing up. When Al graduated from law school, he joined a business law firm in Chicago. His career encompassed many client successes and multiple firm management roles, including serving as its vice chair during its growth to 14 offices in the U.S. and Europe. He believes his CU education was the foundation of that career.

Al and Carol-Ann have long believed that a life well lived means nurturing the next generation, and they have put this belief into practice through extensive support of CU students. They take great pride in CU and the entrepreneurial spirit at the Leeds School of Business.

Walter A. Koelbel was born and raised in Muskegon, Michigan. Immediately after graduating from high school, he enlisted during World War II, and was sent to 91PORN with the Navy’s V-12 program.�� As the war came to an end, he was honorably discharged from the Navy in 1946 and returned to 91PORN and graduated with a business degree from the University of Colorado in 1947.

After a difficult job search, Walter was hired at Moore Realty, and three years later in 1952 he founded Koelbel and Company. Today, his company is one of Denver’s most respected and longest continually operating development firms, built on his vision to create major real estate projects, and his dedication to civic programs and philanthropy.

Walter’s son Buz Koelbel joined the company in 1976 and became president in 1985. Like his father, Buz has remained committed to serving the communities where he works, and he has served on many community service organizations such as the Urban Land Institute, the CU Real Estate Center, and the Denver Museum of Nature and Science.

During Buz’s time as president of Koelbel and Company, he has guided many of the premier residential, commercial, and retail projects in the Denver Metro area, as well as developments in Colorado mountain communities. He has also grown the company into a leader in affordable housing for low- and moderate-income Coloradans.

Walter and Buz’s belief in supporting the community and particularly education, is continuously shown in Koelbel and Company’s lasting ties to the University of Colorado. In 2007, the Leeds School of Business building was named the Koelbel Building, recognizing a partnership that has benefited both the company and the state of Colorado. Carl Koelbel, Leeds School MBA’10, joined the ranks of the CU family along with joining Koelbel and Company in 2010.

Throughout his life, Walter always respected the land that made him successful, recognizing that what he did affected how everyone lived, worked, shopped, studied, worshiped, and traveled. Under the leadership of Buz and Carl, these same principals continue to guide the family business.
