Broome, General Counsel CHANCELLOR UNIVERSITY CHANCELLOR 7 years (2005-06 to present) A native of Oakland, California, Philip L. Dubois attended the University of California, Davis, where he graduated in 1972 with an undergraduate degree in political science, earning election to the Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Kappa Phi honor societies. 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 administrative 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. Dubois was credited with drafting a strategic academic plan, leading the development of the university's first comprehensive campus-wide plan for information technology, and initiating programs to better serve nontraditional adult students. Under his leadership, UNC Charlotte also planned and launched its first doctoral programs. In 1997, Dubois was named president of the University of Wyoming. In that role, he led the development of comprehensive academic, support services, and capital construction plans for the campus; stimulated a growing volume of new capital construction projects and building renovations; expanded UW's role in statewide economic development; and improved the recruitment and retention of students. During his eight-year tenure, state and federal legislative support increased significantly, while private gifts to the university more than quadrupled. He was honored in 2004 by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) with its District VI Chief Executive Leadership Award. On March 18, 2005, Dubois was named UNC Charlotte's fourth chancellor and assumed that role on July 15. In his first five years, Dubois has focused his efforts on building the University's visibility and support in the Charlotte region; long-range planning for an expected enrollment of 35,000 students; completion of key capital construction projects (including a major new building to be located in Center City Charlotte); improvement in the efficiency and effectiveness of critical business processes; and implementation of an intercollegiate football program starting in the fall of 2013. Dr. Dubois and his wife, Lisa Lewis Dubois, have three adult children: Logan, an associate with an executive placement firm in Raleigh; Taylor, an information technology associate with Bank of America; and Ali, a senior at West Virginia University. They are the first family to occupy the chancellor's official campus residence, Bissell House. DUBOIS
