Regent University

Regent University was by far my favorite university I have visited. I was able to stay on campus for a weekend this past summer and experience what its like to be a regent. I stayed in a dorm with Elizabeth Landon. Elizabeth was a great representation of a Regent. She was a wonderful example of true christian leader and really showed how Christ is helping her change the world.

I am also hoping it’ll be able to become my home church while attending Regent University.…

find the balance between the duty to maintain confidentiality, and the loyalty to the legal system; only under extreme circumstances or by the authorization of the client, should confidentiality be broken.
