Mary Maidment: Service

Hi! My name is Mary Maidment and I am from Portland, Oregon. I am studying neuroscience with a minor in psychology on the pre-med track. On campus, I work as an events assistant and as an Ambassador, frequently giving tours. When I have free time, I love to be outside hiking, shopping, intramural sports, workout classes, and spending time with friends. This year, my team won our softball and volleyball intramural championships!! I have been busy watching the new Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season and just finished Scandal. What drew me to Setons was the Service pillar. Since I was young, my family has made an effort to be actively involved in different forms of service in our community. We spent time at our church, local food bank, community garden, and my favorite was making clothing bags for children in need. I loved picking outfits and giving toys, games, and other activities.

Amelia Orth- Sisterhood


Hi! My name is Amelia Orth and I am from Mercer Island, Washington. I am majoring in Business with concentrations in Marketing and Human Resource Management. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest has led me to fall in love with everything outdoors. I enjoy swimming in the lake in the summer and skiing in the mountains in the winter. One of my biggest passions is to travel and I hope to visit all seven contents one day!

One of the biggest reasons that I joined Setons was for the sisterhood pillar. Having experienced my first year of college in the midst of Covid, I found it extremely hard to meet people and make friends because of not being able to do anything in person. Setons has completely filled that void for me and brought me 28 amazing friends I know I can always count on. Weekly sister dates are one of my favorite parts of sisterhood. Even when I am having an overwhelming or stressful week, I always try to make time to go grab coffee or dinner with one of my sisters. I have gotten to know so many of my sisters on a deeper level and had such open and honest conversations with them. Each month I feel like our class becomes closer and closer as we get to know each other better through sister dates. Another part of sisterhood that I love is our socials! Socials are another great way that I have been able to talk to different sisters and get to know them if we haven't been on a sister date yet. Overall, I love getting to know my Seton sisters. I am so grateful to be apart of Setons because it has introduced me to such a variety of girls that I know will be lifelong friends.
