Recent Capital Improvement Campaign
In the fall of 2007, Regis completed a landmark five-year, $82.7 million capital campaign billed as "The Campaign for Regis University, Writing the Next Chapter." The school has long owned more property than was used for educational purposes at the Lowell campus. This unused property has now been incorporated into the main campus as sports fields and a new parking lot, a new chapel is complete and picturesque Main Hall has reopened its top floors for the first time in decades. The Science Building and Carroll Hall have also both been renovated.
