Meet President Scott Bullard

The board of trustees named Dr. Scott Bullard as 秋葵视频鈥檚 11th president in 2019.

“Pfeiffer is preparing leaders in health care, business, education, the arts, ministry, and many other disciplines,” Bullard said, “and because of the character of Pfeiffer employees, Pfeiffer graduates care most about serving others through their vocations. What an exciting place to serve. I am excited to be working alongside such capable and engaged colleagues in service of students and a region that I have loved for a long time.”

Bullard holds a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy from Campbell University, a Master of Divinity from Duke University and a Ph.D. in theology from Baylor University.

Bullard served as professor, co-campus chaplain, chair of the humanities division, head of the religion department, dean of the college, senior vice president, and interim president at Judson College in Marion, Alabama.

Judson’s graduating seniors voted to honor Bullard with the Lula and Alton Holley Excellence in Classroom Teaching Award in 2010. As interim president, Bullard successfully concluded a $20.4 million fundraising campaign. He secured more than $5.4 million in gifts and pledges, including many donations toward the renovation of Judson’s library and the funding of additional student scholarships.

Bullard is a published author, with works appearing in several academic journals and edited collections. His book, Re-membering the Body: The Eucharist and Ecclesial Unity, focuses on the understanding and practice of the Eucharist, or Communion, and was published in 2013. Bullard lives at Pfeiffer’s Oakboro president’s residence with wife, Shannon, and their four children, Judson, Desmond, Campbell, and Walker.
