Philip Hunter Prince (August 4, 1926 – February 28, 2020) was an American businessman who served as the 12th President of Clemson University.

[1] Prince was born in Bostic, North Carolina, in 1926 and was schooled in Erwin, Tennessee, before receiving, in 1944, an athletics scholarship to Clemson College.

After Clemson, he attended programs at Columbia University and King College, and rejoined the army from 1950 to 1951.

After two years at a real estate company in Charlotte and as a textile manufacturing consultant, Prince retired from business.

The most consequential act of Prince's term was to consolidate the number of colleges from nine to four (later to become five), a process that had begun under Lennon's administration as a reaction to state budget cuts.
