Michael Collison was a student at Regent College from 1991 until his graduation in the Spring of 1999. His research on the early years of Regent College was intended to be for a Master of Theology thesis, but after the death of his first wife, Valerie, this research was abbreviated. A substantial amount of that research was submitted as a comprehensive paper, to fulfill the requirements for a Master of Christian Studies degree.
