In order to accomplish these aims, it is imperative that Regent University faculty, staff and students conduct themselves in a Christlike and professional manner and maintain an exemplary and involved lifestyle including regular church attendance, and participation in activities of the Regent community and its founding organization. Regent also forbids the use of alcohol and tobacco on campus and prohibits the abuse of these substances. The Apostle Paul exhorted the body of Christ that, if they truly loved their fellow man, they would set aside their personal freedom by refraining from behavior that might be a stumbling block to their weaker brother. Regent University encourages members of the Regent community to exercise their personal responsibility and, guided by Paul's admonition, appropriately set aside their personal freedom and refrain from the use of alcohol and tobacco. The Substance Abuse Policy is printed in the Student Handbook.
Regent embraces the Judeo-Christian tradition and enjoys a highly ecumenical environment.
With faith as the foundation of its mission, Regent prepares leaders to make a positive impact upon American society and the world.
