Carl Rudolph Wahlberg Jr.
-
He was born in Denver, Colorado to Thelma and Carl Rudolph Wahlberg. His mom was a homemaker and his dad was listed in the 1930 US Census as an automobile trimmer. Carl Jr. was drafted into the military in 1942, when he was 18. His draft notice shows that his employer at the time was Cold Ice and Cold Storage. He achieved the rank of corporal during World War II.
He served as the Vice President of Mesa College (now Colorado Mesa University), and filled in as the interim ‘acting president’ from 1974-1975, until a president could be found. He stayed on as vice president after new president John Tomlinson was hired.
He was tireless in his institutional and fundraising support for CMU, and aided in the transition of Mesa College into the Colorado state university system as Mesa State College. There is a scholarship in the name of he and his wife, Betty, at CMU. He was also active in the Center For Spiritual Living.
He is buried in the Veterans Memorial Cemetery in Grand Junction.
