Gov. Kay Ivey has appointed Enterprise, Alabama, businesswoman Meredith Mitchell Hamilton to an at-large seat on the University of South Alabama Board of Trustees, effective immediately and subject to confirmation of the State Senate.
Hamilton (a native of Albertville, Alabama) serves as treasurer of the Mitchell Automotive group; general manager of Mitchell Mazda and Toyota of Dothan; and operations manager of Mitchell Hyundai and Mitchell Chrysler Dodge Jeep. She graduated from the University of South Alabama in 1995 with a bachelor’s degree in Finance.
“Meredith is an accomplished businesswoman and proud alumnus, and I am looking forward to the many contributions she will make in the coming years,” said USA President Jo Bonner. “We have one of the most supportive governing boards at any university in the nation, and Meredith will be a wonderful addition to that dedicated group of individuals who give countless hours to help South succeed.”
Hamilton is the daughter of John Mitchell, who serves the state as a member of the Alabama Community System Board and other statewide organizations.
“I have a strong passion for education, as well as a deep commitment to supporting the growth and success of our state’s universities, and I am grateful to Gov. Ivey for appointing me to South’s Board of Trustees,” said Hamilton. “USA strives every day to deliver an exceptional educational experience along with ensuring Alabamians have access to high-quality healthcare opportunities through USA Health, and I am eager to give back to my alma mater.”
Hamilton’s appointment to the USA Board of Trustees will expire on Sept. 30, 2027.
