CHLOE GIBSON: SISTERHOOD

Hi! My name is Chloe Gibson, and I'm from Bellingham Washington, and I am an Elementary Education and Dance major/ minor here at Gonzaga. I have a huge passion for all things art, music, and dance! I love to ski, adventure, and hang out with my friends in my free time! This year, I am looking forward to creating close friendships with all of my Seton girls and serving our community with this amazing group! For my pillar, I will be talking about sisterhood!  Sisterhood has always been a huge part of my life. As a big sister, the importance of being a person someone can lean on and bond with is a life skill everyone should carry with them. Through Setons, we see sisterhood in everything we do. As any college freshman experiences, friendships and finding the right people was a big worry of mine. However, through Setons, I have been brought into the most loving, uplifting group of girls who uphold our pillar of sisterhood without fail. One of the biggest ways I experience sisterhood wi...

Artisans Reflection: Matt Reed


Getting the privilege to volunteer every Saturday at Artisans has been one of the greatest experiences I have had here at Gonzaga thus far. When I first met my mentee, Cameron, I knew I we were going to get along quite well when the first thing he said to me was, “The Seahawks are going to crush the 49ers this weekend.” It was quite striking to me but also gave me quite the chuckle. From that first instinct of meeting until the end of hanging out, we talked about the Seahawks the whole time. He knew more about the team and stats from the season than me… which is honestly quite impressive.

Every Saturday from there on out, we spent a majority of our time discussing the previous weeks game and then going onto the computer to at Seahawks highlight videos and such. And then I finally got Cameron to get his mind off Seahawks football and I came to find out he was very good at the board game checkers. Every time I give him a hint on a good move, he makes the remark, “Matt hold on I have a strategy going so I can beat you.” He never fails to beat me.

With only a month or two left of mentoring on the Saturday crew, I truly hope I never lose connection with the members of Artisans and most importantly, Cameron. Through my time at Artisans, I have been told every Saturday by another fellow mentee that I am his best friend and one other whom calls me her boyfriend. Overall, Artisans is an amazing organization.
