As
another year comes to a close here at DePauw, we wanted to reflect on some of
the amazing things our Panhellenic seniors have done. Each chapter has
nominated one senior to be spotlighted here on our blog, but every single
senior Panhellenic woman has changed our community in some way. Here's to you
seniors! You will be missed!
Liz Weingartner-Alpha Chi Omega
Alpha
Chi Omega’s Exceptional Senior is Elizabeth Weingartner. Liz is
graduating with a degree in Biochemistry. She also has a minor in German.
She will be attending the University of Maryland in Baltimore and is pursuing a
PhD in immunology. Liz served as the President of Alpha Chi Omega in the
past term. She led the house with much grace, confidence and skill. She
played an integral role in bringing the Miss Representation documentary film
about women’s misrepresentation in the media to our chapter and organized the
viewing of Miss Representation for DePauw as a whole. Liz recently
organized a 30th anniversary and birthday party for our cook,
Anita. She organized the full event and worked to raise funds to give
Anita the gift of a trip to Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Liz is incredibly
driven and not afraid to stand up for what she believes in. Alpha Chi
Omega and the DePauw community will miss her in the coming years, but is very
excited to see what she will do in the future!
Kendall Quisenberry-Alpha Phi
Kendall is an incredible student,
athlete, and sister. Despite her busy schedule and numerous commitments,
Kendall always takes the time to invest in others' lives. She is someone that
people enjoy being around because of her vibrant, genuine personality. She
shares her love for life with those around her and she's never too busy to help
a sister or friend. She is an English Writing major and an Education
Studies minor. In her four years at DePauw, she has traveled to Ghana, Haiti,
Nicaragua, France, taught English in Taiwan and learned so much from each
experience. She swam for three years and was a conference champion. Kendall is
a member of Kappa Delta Pi, Mortar Board and Order of Omega honor societies.
She would consider receiving a Fulbright her biggest accomplishment in college.
Kendall will be moving to Malaysia in January, and when she returns home she
plans to go to grad school.
Brittany Sievers-Delta Gamma
Delta Gamma is nominating Brittany Sievers as our Panhellenic
Exceptional Senior. Brittany is a graduating Delta Gamma from Manchester,
Indiana. She is majoring in Studio Art, and her work has been featured in
several art shows. Many of her clay pieces were recently displayed in the
Senior Art Show. In addition, she is on the varsity track team and has placed
nationally in discus throwing. Currently, she is ranked 33rd in
the nation. She has been a leader in Delta Gamma, serving as the Director of
Recruitment Records. Brittany is enthusiastic and committed, and she has been a
wonderful member of her chapter.
Lee Harmon-Kappa Alpha Theta
Kappa Alpha Theta is proud to present
Lee Harmon as an Exceptional Senior. Lee is a math major from St. Louis.
Her warm personality embodies all of the values that Theta represents. As a
leader of Greek InterVarsity, member of Mortar Board, and a star on the Track
and Field team Lee has left a lasting impression on this campus. She
unwaveringly dedicates herself to her faith, sport and
academics. Always working late nights on her schoolwork, Lee is a
great study buddy or perfect to lend an ear for a late night chat. Her
scholastic hard work has paid off; being awarded the "Distinguished Woman
in Math." Lee is supportive to all, and has spread her academic success to
others as a Q Center tutor. Through her four years on this campus, Lee has
branched out through the campus and enlightened many with her chipper smile and
lighthearted charisma. Lee is friends with all, enemy to none, and can
always put a smile on anyone's face at anytime.
Emily Eckert-Kappa Kappa Gamma
Kappa Kappa Gamma nominated Emily Eckert as the exceptional Panhellenic
senior because she is an extremely kind person and a great role model in
our house and on campus. She is always setting a great example for dedication
to schoolwork by encouraging others to go to the library with her. She also
encourages others to participate in other Greek organization's events on
campus. Emily is passionate about Kappa and Panhellenic unity.
Libby Harmon-Pi Beta Phi
Pi Beta Phi would like to
nominate Libby Harmon as our Panhellenic Exceptional Senior. Libby has
been not only a good friend to every girl in our house; she is the first person
to offer her help to any sister in need. She is a kinesiology sports and
exercise science major, turbo kick instructor, and offers her support in
any event hosted by, or involving another sister. She actively supports
multiple campus activities, always offering her assistance. She will be greatly
missed and we are so proud that she is a member of our chapter.
