They still are today. As a college president, I sometimes told ghost stories to students on Halloween. One student wrote, The next time that the darkness closes in, the wind blows through the trees, rustling the crisp dry leaves, and the owls come out, screeching into the clear and starry night and soaring through the darkness to grab its prey from under the leaves, think twice about the spirited haunting that seems to frequent our stately campus. As the tales of campus hauntings grew, we concluded that our campus surely was Americas most haunted campus. I assured the students that these were only stories. It was not the ghosts that aroused their fears; it was their fears that aroused the ghosts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDetail from artist Dean L. Pauls official portrait of Pres. William A. Kinnison, Wittenberg University archives. William A. Kinnison was the eleventh president of Wittenberg University, serving from 1974 to 1995. He grew up six blocks north of the campus in Springfield, Ohio, and graduated from the school in 1954.
