CIC Announces Election of Two New Board Members
Richard W. Dalrymple, senior executive with 30 years of diverse experience in the commercial banking and thrift business, is a "corporate/lay" member appointed to the CIC Board for a three-year term. He is the founder and president of Teamwork Management, Inc., an executive recruitment firm. While president and chief operating officer of Anchor Bank in the mid-1990s, Dalrymple was credited with orchestrating and implementing one of the major turnarounds in the financial services industry. He also has had a variety of corporate assignments in the areas of lending, retail banking, credit, and human resources management.
    Among other leadership positions he holds in New York, Dalrymple is a director of Dime Bancorp and Waterhouse Investors Family of Funds, and he is chair of Dime Bank Foundation, the executive committee of the National Center for Disability Services, and the Brain Trauma Foundation. He holds a bachelor's degree from the University of Notre Dame and is a graduate of the Harvard Management Program.

William E. Hamm was elected to a one-year term beginning in January 2002, ex officio, as president of the Foundation for Independent Higher Education (FIHE). FIHE is the national partner in a network of 37 state and regional associations leading federated efforts to raise funds in support of 670 of America's private colleges and universities. Prior to coming to FIHE, Hamm was president of Waldorf College (IA) for 13 years. His early career was in admissions, institutional advancement, and consulting, and he served institutions in Iowa, Alabama, and California before Waldorf College. Since being appointed to FIHE, Hamm has led the foundation's move from Chicago to Washington, DC, and helped to develop new agreements for collaboration among CIC, FIHE, and the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities. Hamm has served on a host of state, regional, and national boards, and in 1999 was named Iowa's Global Citizen of the Year. He is a graduate of Wartburg College and the University of Iowa, and also completed the College Management Program of Carnegie-Mellon University.
