Recently, the school announced in a press release that the dean of their divinity school, Dr. Andrew Wakefield, was elected to the Board of Trustees of the Charles B. Keesee Educational Fund, Inc., a fund founded in 1941 that assists students in divinity schools and seminaries in the Southern Baptist Convention or Cooperative Baptist Fellowship in paying their educational expenses. 

 

The fund, which has supported the Campbell University Divinity School since 2005, awarded grants totaling more than $2.3 million to 476 students in the region and allocated scholarships totalling $407,500 to universities and military academies. 

 

“The Keesee Fund has been an invaluable blessing to Campbell University Divinity School,” Wakefield said, “making it possible for many students to pursue graduate theological education without incurring educational debt even at the doctoral level.”
