Regis welcomes post-traditional students

A Post-Traditional Student Orientation was held on Saturday, Aug. 27 in Clarke Hall.

The event was to welcome new post-traditional students and their families from Anderson, Regis College Education, and SPA to campus. A total of 35 people attended the event. After a catered lunch, participants broke into groups by academic unit and took a tour of campus with a particular emphasis on all the student support offices on campus whose services are also available online.

The event helped to demonstrate to these students, many of whom are online, that they are most welcome and are full members of our campus community.

Help spread the word about MyRegis

MyRegis, the new one-stop-shop for student academic needs, has arrived. The portal, accessible to enrolled students, includes easy access to resources such as WorldClass, the Ranger Portal, WebAdvisor and more. Please tell students to log in at my.regis.edu.
