DANA ROSE DUNGCA: SISTERHOOD

Hi! My name is Dana Rose and I'm from Lakewood, Washington. My major is neuroscience with a minor in philosophy! I love spending time with my family and friends, going on nature adventures like hiking, trying new foods, playing different sports, and sometimes cooking or baking! On campus, I'm part of a variety of culture clubs, one specifically being Filipino American Student Union (FASU), where I am a co-barrio chair and get to plan our main cultural signature event of the year! I'm so grateful that Gonzaga has so many communities and opportunities to be a part of. The Seton community is one that holds a special place in my heart, especially because of my amazing Seton sisters. For my pillar, I will be talking about sisterhood! Sisterhood is a pillar that has been with me my whole life. When I chose Gonzaga, I never would have thought that I would have sisters with me away from home, but since becoming a Seton, I have an addition of 29 sisters, and I have loved getting to ...

Sam Hidalgo- Sisterhood

 Hello! My name is Samantha Hidalgo (I go by Sam!), and I am SO excited to be a Seton. I am a nursing major with a Spanish minor, and I’m from Los Angeles, California. In my free time, I love to read and journal, or even take walks down Centennial Trail to Downtown. Outside of Setons, I am involved in GSNA (Gonzaga Student Nurses Association). Since the entirety of my first year of college was online, I am so thankful for the Setons, since they have not only given me the opportunity to get to know the Spokane community a little better, but the club has also allowed me to make 29 new friends, who I am SO grateful for everyday! 

 Sisterhood is the pillar that holds the most significance to me. I attended an all-girls school for high school, and I developed a strong relationship with many girls and truly felt an immense boost in my confidence during my high school experience. Now that I’m back in a co-ed environment, I didn’t want to lose that sense of sisterhood in my everyday life, which is why the Setons stood out to me so much! This class of Setons has bonded together so quickly in such a short amount of time, and it brings me so much joy every time we all get together for our monthly service or social events. I love going on sister dates with each person, since it gives me time to really get to know each of my Seton sisters. A strong aspect of sisterhood that I’ve recognized from this first semester of being a Seton is through our weekly meetings. While we’re all waiting for the meeting to start, you can find girls turning to their sisters and checking in with one another to see how they’ve been doing throughout the week; we lift each other up if someone shares that they’ve had a rough week and we provide words of encouragement. During the meeting, we’re given the chance to give a Sister Shoutout to another sister, which spreads even more love and encouragement, and it truly reflects this sisterhood. This semester has reminded me that Setons is not just a service club, but a whole group of girls that I can lean on for support—my sisters!
