Regis University's Haunted History

It’s my favorite time of year. The leaves are falling, the air is blowing, and the skies are gray. Yes, that’s right everyone, it’s Spooky Season! Some of you might remember that last year, I brought you a special section of ghosts, ghouls, and all ghastly things. This was the Spooky Series. Because I had so much fun reading, research, and reporting on some of the most unhinged, unsettling, and overall insane Halloween content last year, I figured I’d continue the trend of scaring my parents and worrying my friends about my Halloween obsession. And so, it is with great excitement and misplaced enthusiasm that I introduce part two of my Spooky Series! We are kicking it off with a look into the legends and lore of our very own school, Regis University. I present to you Regis University’s Haunted History.

It’s no secret that Regis University has spirit, spunk, and fun. With countless student activities, clubs, sports, and events, the Regis community is a menagerie of personal exchanges, group collaboration, and team building. However, one of the most impactful and important pieces of the Regis community is the Regis Spirit Team.

The Connections Retreat is an annual weekend activity for freshmen who want an escape from campus to go hangout and meet new people. Organized by the University Ministry this retreat incorporates aspects of spirituality and religion, but does not require participants to be religious. When I attended this retreat, I met so many new freshmen friends and upperclassmen who are involved in UMinn, who taught us how to become more involved.
