Under White, Duke has continued its focus on outreach to the local community. Modeling the NCAA CHAMPS/Life Skills program s commitment to service, learning projects and outreach, approximately 500 Duke student-athletes across all sports participated in a combined effort of more than 2,000 community service hours. White s commitment to the overall mission of the university remains clear. In May 2011, Duke Athletics announced that a portion of ticket sales from Blue Devil regular season home sporting events will be directed to the Duke University Libraries. Per White s vision, the Duke Athletics Library Fund will generate significant unrestricted revenue for the Duke University Libraries to support teaching and research across the institution. In fall of 2012, Duke University announced the $3.25 billion Duke Forward fundraising campaign for priorities across Duke s 10 schools, Duke Medicine and a range of university programs. Included in the campaign is a $250 million goal for Duke Athletics to be divided three ways for facility enhancements and support ($100 million), endowment income ($50 million) and operating funds ($100 million). In , several facility projects were initiated, including the construction of new practice fields off Bassett Drive that will benefit Duke s lacrosse, soccer, recreation and club sports, and intramural programs. White, who holds a Ph.D. in education, has taught graduate-level classes since 1982 and currently teaches a sports business course in Duke s Fuqua School of Business as part of Duke s MBA program. In August 2003, SI.com (the Sports Illustrated web site) listed White, then at Notre Dame, third in its rankings of the most powerful people in college football. In January 2004, The Sporting News listed him in its Power 100 as third among five names in the front office category (and the lone college athletics director among the 100). White previously served on numerous NCAA committees, including being an ex-officio member of the NCAA Committee on Academic Performance and a member of its Penalty and Rewards subcommittee. For several years, he was a representative with the football Bowl Championship Series. Additionally, White was part of the NCAA Coalition on Intercollegiate Athletics (COIA) that dealt with academics, fiscal reform and student-athlete well-being. In 2012, White was among a select group of college and professional administrators asked to serve on the recently formed Expert Advisory Board for the Knight Commission.Additionally, he was the secretary of NCAA Football, a non-profit corporation acting as the collective voice to promote college football, and served on the Black Coaches and Administrators Board of Directors. Given his background and success, it is not surprising that 23 current or former directors of athletics were mentored by White. That impressive list includes Jim Sterk of Washington State and San Diego State, Tom Boeh of Ohio University and Fresno State, Ian McCaw of Northeastern, Massachusetts and Baylor, Bruce Van De Velde formerly of Utah State, Iowa State and Louisiana Tech, Herman Frazier previously of Alabama-Birmingham and Hawaii, Rudy Keeling formerly of Emerson and previous commissioner of the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC), Scott Devine of St. Mary s College (Md.), Tom Collins formerly of Ball State, Tim Van Alstine formerly of Western Illinois, Mark Wilson of Tennessee Tech, Bubba Cunningham of Ball State, Tulsa and North Carolina, Sandy Barbour of Tulane and California-Berkeley, Jim Phillips of Northern Illinois and Northwestern, Bernard Muir of Georgetown, Delaware and Stanford, Sandy Hatfield Clubb of Drake, Vic Cegles of Long Beach State, Norwood Teague of Virginia Commonwealth and Minnesota, Bob Bierie previously of Loras College, Greg Capell previously of Loras College, Boo Corrigan of Army, Bill Scholl of Ball State, Josh Berlo of Minnesota Duluth, and Stan Wilcox of Florida State.

Before becoming an administrator, White served as head track and field coach at Southeast Missouri State ( ) and assistant cross country and track and field coach at Central Michigan ( ). He began his coaching career at Gulf High School in New Port Richey, Fla., coaching cross country and track and assisting in football and wrestling. White earned his Ph.D. from Southern Illinois University in 1983 with an emphasis on higher education administration. In 1985, he completed postdoctoral work at Harvard University s Institute for Educational Management. He earned his master s degree in athletics administration from Central Michigan University in 1976 and his bachelor s degree in business administration in 1972 from St. Joseph s College in Rensselaer, Ind., where he also competed as a sprinter. White and his wife, Jane, a former college track and field coach, have five children and 10 grandchildren
