Selected Readings
Regis students have traditionally scored highest on the reading portion of the ACT college entrance exam. Our instructors have selected books to complement the curriculum of selected classes. Students can purchase the books on-line or at local book stores. You may also want to check with graduates or older students, as a number of the books have been used by previous classes. Students should read the books prior to the start of classes.
