To create the John Sloan Dickey Endowment for International Understanding, Dartmouth seeks to establish as endowment of $10,000,000. Many opportunities exist for naming funds either unrestricted in purpose or directed at specific types of activities including faculty research, internships, visiting international lecturers, or language and foreign study programs. Named funds can support work in specific geographical areas, and work on specific subjects such as on the United Nations, natural resources use, arms reduction processes, and the maintenance of stable peace. Support directed toward any of these areas would promote the overall purpose of the Endowment. members of the Dartmouth family are invited to join in this tribute to John Dickey.
Many individuals have come forward to assist in the establishment of the Dickey Endowment; from this group a few have formed a national Executive Committee to help coordinate this effort. Its members are: F. William Andres '29 and Emil Mosbacher, Jr. '43, Co-Chairmen, Wellington E Barto '29, William E. Buchanan '24, Robert J. Callander '52, David B. Chalmers '46, William M. Freeman '41, Richard D. Lombard '53, Norman E. McCullochJr. '50, David T. McLaughlin '54, Thomas V.A. Kelsey '54, Leonard M. Rieser '44, Mrs. Nelson A. Rockefeller, Ann Hopkins Spahr, Justin A. Stanley '33, William K. Tell, Jr. '56 and Walter C. Wilson '58.
Anyone wishing to have more information about ways in which contributions to the Endowment may be made is asked to get in touch with any member of the Executive Committee or Leonard Rieser (Director of the Endowment), Addison Winship (Vice President), or Gregory Prince (Associate Provost) at the College.
