through the years y . ' ,811 ■5 iisi iii 1 s|l i ami The college building in Las Vegas, N.M. during the 1870 ' s. The history of Regis spans ninety years from its first beginning in 1867 when a pioneer group of Jesuits from Naples, Italy arrived in Santa Fe to assist in the New Mexico Territory. Their assistance had been re- quested by Bishop Lamy during his visit to Rome the previous year. The Jesuit Fathers assumed the paro- chial duties in Albuquerque and founded a school that after some argument with the territorial government became a public school. The arrangement was not satisfactory, and in 1873 a so-called college was opened within the residence of the Fathers in Albuquerque. It was then given the name of Holy Family College. The whole effort turned out to be a failure. At the invita- tion of the inhabitants of Las Vegas the Jesuits es- tablished Sacred Heart College which first opened for class in 1877. The school well served the needs of the natives, for although called a college it was actually more of a grammar school. Financial difficulties plagued the establishment as the natives keeping their dollars preferred to pay in cattle, sheep, and grain. The Santa Fe Railroad reached Las Vegas in 1879 and proved to be a great boon to the city and the college as well. But this proved to be the peak of Las Vegas ' prosperity as the main railroad tracks were stretched across Colorado. Hard years followed and during the term of office of Father Pantanella, the last president ' s term of office it became certain that the college in Las Vegas could not survive. When, therefore, Bishop Machebeuf offered his assistance to help found a col- lege in his diocese of Denver, Father Pantanella looked eagerly to the north and while Las Vegas was still in existence the foundation at Morrison was laid.
