Like many college campuses, Truman State has a few ghost stories.  They're an important part of the school's history and help students bond with each other.  It's not uncommon for a tour guide to make mention to a hall's ghosts, and Student Advisors love to entertain their residents with tales of spirits. Ghost stories have a way of connecting people and humanizing the past, as well as strenghening the bond between those who tell them. The two most well known ghost stories of Truman would be of Charlotte who resides in Grim Hall, and Joan in Centennial Hall.
