As DR. DENNIS BAZEMORE carries out his final semester in the role of vice president for student life at
Campbell University, the college announced that he is the 2022 recipient of the North Carolina Baptist

Heritage Award.
The award “recognizes those who represent exemplary service and giving to organizations associated
with the Baptist State Convention,” a Campbell press release said.
“Dennis Bazemore has been a good and faithful servant leader to Campbell University as a student, alumnus, volunteer and professional staff member for nearly 50 years,” Campbell President J. Bradley Creed said. “But his impact on the North Carolina Baptist community is immeasurable.”

“He is a loyal steward of the Campbell experience in his care and commitment to students,” said Rev. Faithe Beam, who will succeed Bazemore upon his retirement this summer. “He exemplifies the mission of Campbell in who he is and how he has served faithfully through his own purpose and calling.”
