Sarah Grassel: Service

Hi everyone! My name is Sarah Grassel and I’m a Biology major with a Spanish minor. I’m from Corvallis, Oregon, and have lived my whole life in the Pacific Northwest. Because of this, I’ve developed a love of the outdoors, especially of hiking, biking, and paddle boarding (and also coffee of course). I love to go on walks, especially on the beach, and like to read, bake, play piano, swim, and spend time with friends and family. At Gonzaga, I’m involved in campus ministry and work as a tutor in math and chemistry, and, of course, I am a Seton. Coming to Gonzaga, I knew I wanted to find a community that valued service and connection. Service has always been an important part of my life. Through volunteering, I’ve gotten to meet so many people from different walks of life while working on various projects. I believe serving others is essential to living a flourishing life. It’s an act of love and humility, recognizing the gifts one has received and working for and with others in gratitude...

Ben McFaul: Charity Auction


This weekend was the Charity Auction for Artisans, and also parents weekend. The Charity Auction has taken a tremendous amount of time on my part, and I can not even imagine how much time it has taken for Tara and Emily, the other Charity Auction chairs. This auction always benefits a good cause and I know it will be a great success this year. This past weekend, the Charity Auction team went to Artisans in Spokane and began to finalize all of the items. Per usual, I was late. My task designated to me was to wrap the items that had already been entered into the system. I was at first completely unsure of what to do, but after watching Will Hackel the Great wrap with precision, excellence and passion, I decided to give it a try. Like the plot of any movie, I was at first unsuccessful, but after much trial and error I can confidently say that I became a gift wrapper extraordinaire. Roll 80's montage....
