Hugh “David” McLean was sworn in as a trustee member on the Board of Trustees at Sandhills Community College, on Dec. 3, 2024. He assumes the position held by the late George Little, past trustee and board chairman for more than 40 years. McLean is a graduate of Sandhills Community College and built a 36-year career with UPS honing in on a specialty in supply chain logistics and leadership.

In addition to his schooling at Sandhills Community College with a degree in Electronic Data Processing, McLean obtained “Lean/Six Sigma” and “Right Chain/Right Help” courses to support his career advancement to being Senior Director of Healthcare Distribution Operations at UPS Supply Chain Solutions, Inc.

“David has a true desire to serve the community in which he was raised, and the Sandhills Board of Trustees is a very natural way for that to happen,” said President Alexander “Sandy” Stewart in a press release. “He is a graduate of Sandhills and started his 36-year career with UPS while a student so he knows the value of the college and has experienced first-hand balancing the demands of college and career at the same time as so many of our students do. We are fortunate to have David serve on our Board of Trustees and look forward to working with him.”

McLean currently serves as the Chairman of the Moore County Planning Board, the Carolina Loggers Association Board, and is a volunteer firefighter with Cypress Pointe Fire and Rescue in Vass. He is a resident of Cameron, North Carolina.

“I look forward to being a valued contributor to the College and make a difference in the lives of our students by the decisions we make at the board level,” McLean added in a press release.
