Millspaugh, a graduate of the University of Michigan, replaced Dr. Coyner, and was also named the first Superintendent of the Salt Lake Public Schools, in 1890, when the Utah Territorial Legislature consolidated all of the public schools. Soon the need for private lower grade schools diminished and the Churchmen turned their interests to the establishment of a private college. During this time, the Salt Lake Collegiate Institute was used as an academy to prepare young people for entrance into eastern colleges. The Presbyterian schools throughout the Territory were to be tributaries to the College. The first class graduated from the Collegiate Institute in 1882. In 1895, Dr. Sheldon Jackson offered to donate $50,000 from proceeds of the sale of property he owned if the citizens of Salt Lake would provide a campus of 50 acres, make the study of the Bible a requirement, and name the institution Sheldon Jackson The Presbytery (Presbyterian ministers and elders) accepted Dr. Jacksons offer and, when funds were raised, the first building of Sheldon Jackson College was erected. The building was the Gunton Memorial Chapel which was located on the corner of Seventeenth South and Eleventh East. This building was used by the College as a chapel and the Third Presbyterian Church until it was sold in the 1940s and remodeled into the present costume rental business.
