According to legends, she has been haunting the young men of the dorm since the mid-1980s. She makes sure that they are behaving themselves, even going so far as to call them out by name. Caroline’s watchful eyes look over misbehaving men and she is rumored to yell their names aloud. If you hear your name echo through Colvin, get out! Students have reported hearing tap...tap...tapping following them within the halls and tripping them in the North Stairwell. If you are by a mirror, beware of a blue flash. She may be near.
