A First Letter from the New Editor
By Austin Price, Editor in Chief
If you had told me last fall that after one year of college, I would become the Editor in Chief of Regis University’s student-run publication, the Highlander, I would’ve thought you were crazy. But yet, here I am, taking on a coveted role that I am honored to have.
A Year Abroad in 50 Pictures
By Madelynn Loring, Staff Writer
On August 31, I boarded a plane for the adventure of a lifetime. Initially, I’d only planned for a brief semester abroad, with a couple of trips here and there, but little did I know of the journey that lay ahead. 247 days, eight countries, countless smiles, and plenty of tears later, my study abroad journey has finally come to an end. I could write an entire book about the places I’ve been, the friends I’ve made, and the lessons I’ve learned, but that’s far too long to publish in a university newspaper, even for me. So I have decided to share my year studying abroad in pictures instead. Just know that each of these photos, whether it’s insta-worthy or kinda blurry, has its own story to tell.
A Last Letter from the Editor
By Morgan Jacobus, Editor in Chief
I have had the privilege of serving as Editor in Chief of this publication for the past three years. I was fortunate to have been given the opportunity at the end of my freshman year by my prior editor, Catie. Just as she took a chance on me, I did the same by passing my title on to freshman staff writer, Austin Price. She will be supported by Madelynn Loring and Sandra Vo, who have been dedicated members of my team for the past two years.
In reflection on my time, I have had highs and lows of things I wish I had done while being proud of what I was able to accomplish on my own. It has just been me supporting this publication for the past few years, and I hope that I was able to build a steady enough foundation for my colleagues to carry it on without me.
