Buies Creek, N.C.-Dr. Derek Karl Hogan, of the Campbell Divinity School, is a recipient of the 2009 Dean’s Award for Teaching Excellence. The awards were presented on Saturday, May 9, at a luncheon held in the Alumni Room of Marshbanks Dining Hall.
Hogan is an assistant professor of New Testament and the theological/reference librarian for the Campbell Divinity School. His work is said to have greatly enriched the religion/theological collection in Campbell’s Carrie Rich Memorial Library.
“Dr. Hogan has excelled in his work as a professor and theological/reference librarian,” said Dr. Michael Cogdill, dean of the Campbell Divinity School. “Since he has come to Campbell, the Carrie Rich Library now lends out more books in the theological area than are received. As an instructor, he has helped students in the conduct stronger theological research, thus strengthening the teaching of the entire Divinity School faculty.”
