Regent University is welcoming students back to campus this week, as we get ready for on campus face-to-face classes in Virginia Beach beginning on August 24, 2020.
The
University made this
decision on April 30, 2020, and a myriad of preparations have been taking
place to make this happen for our students and their families. Chancellor Dr. M. G. “Pat” Robertson noted
the difficulties presented over these past months affirming, “We will overcome
these challenging days together as the Regent family. Every necessary
precaution will be put in place to ensure the safest educational experience is
available to the students we serve.”
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Regent’s on-campus students
transitioned to online courses to complete the spring 2020 semester, but now “Regent
is ready to continue offering a world-class education to all of our students –
on campus and online – amidst the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our
plans will ensure that students, faculty, and staff have access to the
resources they need to stay fully engaged, safely and with confidence,” said
Dr. Gerson Moreno-Riaño, executive vice president for Academic
Affairs. “We are taking the utmost precautions to prepare our campus for
safe instruction this fall.”
In order to protect students, faculty, and staff, Regent has
implemented state-of-the-art health and safety protocols including increased
sanitation, appropriate student density in classrooms and housing, flexible
study options, and COVID-19 testing and healthcare support provided through
partnership with the medical community.
We are all excited
for a great year ahead as we offer our best work to God to a nation of families
who need the legal guidance and assistance at such a challenging time.
