“The main things that really stood out to me about Regent went beyond campus. It was the students and seeing the mission statement embodied in everything.”
Morganne Oliver, College of Arts & Sciences, 2021
“Honors College classes are much more focused on discussion and working with others to solve a problem. My experience was different from school: Instead of reading other peoples' data and writing a report on it, you're forming your own data and then reporting that.”
Allison Hodgkins, College of Arts & Sciences, 2022
“I knew Regent was a Christian university, but I wasn’t expecting the love of Christ to be so evident.”
Jonatas DaSilva, B.A., 2015 Cinema/TV
“When I came to Regent, life had kind of clipped my wings. In hindsight, I see that Regent wasn’t so much a restoration project, but rather a new-construction project.”
Bruce Long, M.A. in Cinema/ TV Acting & Directing, 2001 Executive Director, CITA Producer, The Repertoire Fund
“Things anxiety and depression told me I couldn’t do: be independent, live by myself, be completely happy, graduate college (magna cum laude!). Things I’ve done: All of the above.”
Ansley Michaela Hamby, B.A. in Communication Studies, 2020
