In the late 1980s, he founded HEDS, a 125-school data-sharing consortium, to assist colleges and universities in planning, assessment and management.

Mr. Dunn worked at Tufts University from 1969 through 1989 as Assistant to the President, Secretary to the Board of Trustees, and Vice-President for Planning. He was involved in campus planning, fund-raising planning, major curriculum overhaul, and long-term strategic planning; he also staffed key personnel searches for a new president and for several vice-presidents and school deans.
