As of June 1, 2023, Dr. Justin Bond will be serving in the role of Dean of the Harris College of Business at Faulkner University. Dr. Bond is a long-time member of our faculty who received his bachelor’s degree in computer information systems at Faulkner and his PhD from Auburn University.
“He is a proven leader, not only in the College, but also in the community as a member of the Board of Directors of Alabama Christian Academy. Dr. Bond has served as Interim Dean since the untimely death of Dr. Dave Khadanga. Dr. Bond will provide excellent direction and innovative Christ-centered leadership ethics in Faulkner’s Harris College of Business which continues to emphasize ‘business as mission,'” said Faulkner University President Mitch Henry.
“I’m truly excited about his desire for our business college to launch generations of business vocational ministers — people equipped with innovative business knowledge and committed to make their work a mission of service to others every day,” Henry added.

“I choose to teach at Faulkner because I know excellent academics and Christianity are not mutually exclusive. Having experienced a variety of university settings as a student, I feel blessed to be a part of an institution where I can know each of my students individually and share experiences with both students and co-workers in a Christian environment,” Bond said. “I’m able to provide input with regard to issues that impact my department and the entire university, and I’m confident that I will always have the administration’s support to succeed as a teacher and researcher.”
