Finally, the Eta Upsilon chapter at the University of San Francisco!
October 19th - October 25th
I say "finally" because this brand new chapter has been in the works for a long time! Here I am with some of the Installation team and a few new members... How special for them to be the very first members of the Eta Upsilon chapter.
One of our masterpieces from my visit in October in recruiting the new members!
During my two extended visits, I stayed with the ELCs based with the Eta Upsilon chapter for the year, Corey and Lauren... So even though I'm always traveling, I got a good taste of what it's like to be based with a new chapter!
This will definitely be one of my most memorable pictures from the year... This is the Installation team for the Eta Upsilon chapter, including some of the greatest Thetas I know, even our Fraternity President, Amy Kates! It is such a neat feeling for me to know that I am a small part of the reason that there is now a Theta chapter on the University of San Francisco's campus.
And believe it or not, my big sis from my chapter, Steffani, just so happens to be in the nursing program at USF...
So I got to help start a Theta chapter on my big sis' campus... Talk about coming "full circle."
I also got to have dinner one night with some other lovely chapter sisters - Brenda and Rochelle. The girls made sure we stopped at campus so we could take these pictures because it was my last night in town and I hadn't taken my typical photo by the University sign! Couldn't break the tradition, and I'm especially glad to have them in these shots with me. :)
The next morning, it was off to Washington University in St. Louis! I was asked to be on the presentation team to "sell" Theta at Wash U and possibly reopen our Theta chapter on the campus in the next few years! It made for an extremely long day, but it was an incredible experience and such a privilege to be included...
After just one full day in St. Louis, it was on to Pittsburgh! This was the craziest two weeks of my year traveling thus far.
For now, love from San Fran, St. Louis, & a bunch of airplanes...
