So, Regis wasn't originally on my radar, but when I came, I absolutely fell in love with the campus. To me, it just always felt like home. And especially when I interacted with the faculty, they just brought me into the university and the culture on campus. And to me it just felt like a smooth transition from an out-of-state student to easily just go into college.ELIZABETH WOLFE, PSYCHOLOGY, '24
