F. W. Graham Hill is a
academic. He was Vice Chancellor of the University of Zimbabwe from 1997 to 2002.[1] As a researcher, he published on subjects such as the rabies vaccination[2] and its epidemiology[3] carcinoma in cattle,[4] snake bites of small animals[5] and diseases of the small intestines of dogs.[6] His term as Vice-Chancellor was marked by frequent staff strikes[7] and student disturbances, and university and government crackdowns in response.[8] He was accused of intervening in the academic process to favour senior government officials.[9]
Following his 2002 retirement, Prof. Hill took up farming but lost his new farm during fast-track land reform in 2005.[10]
