Hiden Family College Honors Endowment

Robert B. Hiden Jr. was an active member of the Ramapo College Foundation Board of Governors since 2002.  He provided exemplary service to the board as Chairman of the Audit Committee and as a member of the Finance Committee, Investment Committee, Allocations Committee and the Motorcycle Rally Committee.  He and his wife Ann established the Hiden Family College Endowment to “tangibly recognize the outstanding work done at the College in a way that helps students and hopefully enhances their academic experience.”

During his time as a member of the Board of Governors, Bob witnessed the growth of the College first hand.  He demonstrated a commitment to this growth through financial support for unrestricted funds and events, contributions for the Havemeyer Edible Garden, and for science equipment for students.

Professionally, Bob served as senior counsel to Sullivan & Cromwell since he retired in 2000.  He had been a partner since 1968, specializing in corporate and securities law, acquisitions, and in commodities and derivatives law.  Sadly, Mr. Hiden passed away in February of 2018.
