Big money has already started to roll in for the College for Creative Studies Argonaut Building redevelopment, but the university is looking for more.

Excerpt:

The College for Creative Studies (CCS) has launched "Advancing the Creative Spirit",a $55 million capital campaign to support the redevelopment of the Argonaut Building.

The good news? They've already raised $36 million, or 65 percent, of that total. The building will be named the A. Alfred Taubman Center for Design Education, after the campaign's largest donor to date, A. Alfred Taubman, who has chipped in $15 million. Other large donors that have stepped to the plate are the Benson and Edith Ford Foundation ($5 million), Kresge Foundation ($4 million), New Economy Initiative ($3 million) and Compuware ($1 million).
