Hi! My name is Sophie Kuhn and I originally am from
Bellevue, Washington. I am
majoring in mathematics, and earning my secondary education
certificate, in hopes of being a
middle school or high school math teacher. I am also
co-chair of the Charity Ball this year in
Setons. I have absolutely loved my time in Setons, and
looking back on this year, I couldn’t
imagine it without the sisterhood, friendships, and service
I have experienced. I feel like I
personally have grown a lot over this last year, and this
organization has allowed me to meet a
completely new part of campus. This has been more than a
club for me, as it has continuously
led me to step outside my comfort zone, try new things, and
serve the Spokane community
around me.
One aspect of Setons that I am so grateful for is the
sisterhood aspect. During Freshman
year I felt trapped on campus, and I didn’t feel like I knew
many people outside of my dorm and
classes. Being in education, my classes consisted of the
same people, whom I love, but I was
craving meeting more people. Now in Setons, I am more than
confident in saying that I
wouldn’t have gotten to know most of the girls in this
organization if we had not been led to
serve together this year. One of my favorite things we do is
our weekly Wednesday night
meetings. Gathering together, no matter how stressed or busy
our week is, this is a time of
relief and a time to catch up with everyone. I love the time
in the meeting when we do sister
shoutouts, which is where we call out girls giving them
praise for something they did for one of
us during the previous week. Usually after our meetings we
all stay and chat and share a few
laughs, which always makes my week. I also enjoy our sister
dates, where we get assigned
another Seton to grab a coffee or meal with during the week.
This one-on-one time has allowed
me to get to know so many girls on a deeper level and learn
something I might not otherwise
know. This kind of sisterhood is very unique, and I feel
very blessed in the sense that I will
always be able to cherish this in the coming years and
beyond.
I have also enjoyed our monthly social events that have
allowed us to bond as a larger
group. Some of the standout events to me have been our trip
to Green Bluff, our Christmas
party, our Retreat, and our trip downtown for ice skating
and shopping. No matter what the
event is, we always manage to have a good time, and I always
leave with a full heart. Shout out
to our Social Chairs Sam & Lucy!!!
The time in Setons has been going by fast, and I keep
wishing time would slow down so I
could cherish this special time just a little bit longer.
Although our sophomore year is starting to
wind down, we will always be a part of this amazing
organization and I look forward to seeing
the future generations of Setons continue this unconditional
sisterhood, leadership, and
service.
