“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.”
