DR. PHILIPUNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR14 YEARS, 2005-06 - PRESENT

DUBOIS A native of Oakland, Calif., Philip L. Dubois attended the University of California, Davis, where he graduated in 1972 with highest honors with an undergraduate degree in political sci-ence, including election to Phi Beta Kappa. He then earned master’s (1974) and doctoral (1978) degrees in the field from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Dubois began his academic career in 1976 at the University of California, Davis. Over the next 15 years, he rose through the faculty and administrative ranks to full professor and held various administra-tive posts, including associate vice chancellor for academic affairs.In 1991, Dubois was recruited to UNC Charlotte, where he spent the next six and a half years as provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs. Under his leadership, UNC Charlotte opened its first class-room facility in Uptown Charlotte and launched its first doctoral pro-grams. In 1997, Dubois was named president of the University of Wy-oming. In that role, he led the development and implementation of comprehensive academic, support services, and capital construction plans for Wyoming’s only university. Private contributions to the insti-tution more than quadrupled during his tenure. He was honored in 2004 by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) with its District VI Chief Executive Lead-ership Award. On March 18, 2005, Dubois was named UNC Charlotte’s fourth chancellor, and he assumed that role on July 15. As the University’s leader, Dubois has focused his efforts on building UNC Charlotte’s vis-ibility and support in the greater Charlotte region; has led long-range planning to accommodate expected enrollment of 35,000 students; has championed a number of key capital construction projects, including completion of EPIC and UNC Charlotte Center City, located in the heart of the Queen City; has improved the efficiency and effectiveness of critical business processes; and has implemented an intercollegiate football program starting fall 2013. Dr. Dubois and his wife, Lisa Lewis Dubois, have three adult children: Logan, Taylor, and Ali. They are the first family to occupy the chancellor’s official campus residence, Bissell House.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS1ST YEAR, 2017-PRESENT

(NORTH CAROLINA, 1990)

HILL

Mike Hill became the seventh director of athletics in Charlotte 49ers’ history, Feb. 28, 2018. Hill was formerly Executive Associate Athletics Director for External Affairs at the University of Florida. “Mike has a deep background in a highly successful athletic pro-gram from a ‘Power Five’ conference, so he has played lead roles in hiring and working with highly successful head coaches, negotiating multi-million dollar media agreements and facilities naming rights, and being on point in external relations for the Gators. But we were equally impressed by his sports administration experience and his dedication to the welfare and personal development of student-athletes,” Chancellor Philip Dubois said upon his hiring. Hill comes to the 49ers after a nearly 25-year career with the Uni-versity of Florida Athletic Association. He has spent the last six years as the Gators’ Executive Associate Athletics Director for External Affairs. He served as the chief marketing officer and brand manager and oversaw revenue development. As a primary advisor to the Director of Athletics, he helped lead searches in the hiring of head coaches. He either led searches, helped hire or managed several head coaches, including Mike White and Billy Donovan (men’s basketball), Urban Meyer and Dan Mullen (football) and Amanda Butler (women’s basketball). He was the direct supervisor for men’s basketball and men’s tennis at Florida. He served on the administrative fundraising team that developed strategies, cultivated donors and secured major gifts. He chaired the 100 Years of Florida Football fundraiser that generated $6.1 million for endowment and created the Florida Football Ring of Honor. He coordinated market-ing and promotions campaigns for 21 sports and managed corporate partner relationships with Nike, Pepsi and Gatorade. In his capacity in the Gators’ Department of Athletics, Hill served on the University of Florida Branding Steering Committee, had a six-year stint as the chair of the Southeastern Conference Marketing Directors and served on the SEC Fan Experience Working Group. He has been on the Climb for Cancer Board of Directors since 2009. Prior to joining the University of Florida, Hill was an Assistant to the Athletics Director at Ball State and served as Assistant Executive Director of the Blockbuster Bowl from 1990-92. A 1990 graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and Communications. He worked as a student assistant in the school’s Sports Information Office from 1988-90. For his part, Hill, who has a personal background with the Carolinas, sees the move to the 49ers program as a trip home. “This is personal for me,” noted Hill, who grew up in Clemson, S.C. and attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. “This is home.” He attended the Charlotte Hornets first basketball game. He’s a Carolina Panthers football fan. He watched the 49ers 1977 Final Four game vs. Marquette from his grandparents living room, in Charlotte. He’s seen the Avett Brothers perform 16 times (Seth Avett attended UNC Charlotte). “We’re not in it to be ordinary. We’re in it to be extraordinary,” Hill said. “Gold is the standard.”
