Dr. Robert HebertUniversity President

Tommy McClellandDirector of Athletics

Dr. Robert Hebert is president of McNeese State University and is in his 23rd year as such. He is a native of Meaux, LA, is a graduate of Louisiana-Lafayette and holds his Ph.D from Florida State. He is married to the former Lilly Ann Vincent and the couple has four sons - Greg, Chris, Gerry and Edward - all of whom are graduates of McNeese State and are physi-cians. The University has provided, for over a half century, service to its community and state and to the students who seek to secure their future through higher education. McNeese opened its doors in 1939 as Lake Charles Ju-nior College and as a division of the Louisiana State University system. Name changes later were made to John McNeese Junior College (1940) and to McNeese State (1950) when the university separated from LSU. In 1970 the school obtained its present name of McNeese State University. The university presently has an enroll-ment of 8,645 and has over 300 fulltime faculty members, half of whom possess the doctoral degree. The university is located on 580 acres in south Lake Charles. McNeese was named after John Mc-Neese, a pioneer Southwest Louisiana educa-tor who served as the first superintendent of education in Calcasieu Parish. He was also a cattle rancher and was renowned for making the first cattle drive across the Sabine River, thus the school’s nickname of Cowboys.• established in 1939, McNeese State has an enroll-ment of 8,645. The university is located in Lake Charles, a city with a population of 80,000. The city is located in the Southwest corner of the state, 30 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico and 30 miles east of the Texas-Louisiana border.• McNeese’s schools of study are the Arts, Sciences, Engineering/Technology, Nursing, Education, Busi-ness and the Graduate School. The school produces more teachers annually than any other university in the state.• In 1993, the Pulitzer Prize for fiction was awarded to Dr. Robert Olen Butler, then a member of the university’s Department of Languages.• Among Cowboys who have gone on to profes-sional athletic fame have been Joe Dumars, Kerry Joseph, Ben Broussard, Buford Jordan, Leonard Smith, Kavika Pittman, Terry Irving and Tom Sestak.• Dumars is now the president of basketball opera-tions for the Detroit Pistons and is also a member of the national basketball Hall of Fame.

Tommy McClelland is the seventh ath-letic director in McNeese State’s 69 year his-tory and he has “made a difference” in the three years he has been in charge. The Basile native and Northwestern State graduate, was quick out of the box after his hire. He formulated and drove home a two week travel plan that brought McNeese ath-letics to communities in Southeast Texas and Southwest Louisiana. And, he put together a “Partner with the Pokes” program for busi-nesses. In the short time he has served as the ath-letic director, more than $2.5 million in reno-vation and construction has been applied to the facilities with the turfing of Cowboy Sta-dium field and the completion of the Hodges Street field house. The renovation of the baseball facilities - field, stands, dressing rooms, fieldhouse - was also completed and in late 2009, the con-struction of a new $8 million Jack Doland fieldhouse got underway. In the summer of 2008, McClelland was named as one of Southwest Louisi-ana’s “top 10 under 40” business leaders by the local magazine, the Times of Lake Charles. A native of Basile, McClelland is a graduate of Northwestern State (bachelor and master degrees) where he was a foot-ball (H-back and deep snapper) and track (javelin) letterman.
