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. The Gonzaga community reflects this deeply ingrained value I have, which is the importance of service and ...

Andie Rosenwald- Sisterhood

Hello! My name is Andie Rosenwald, and I am this year’s treasurer! I was born and raised in Bellevue, WA and I love everything the PNW has to offer. At home I like to play with my dog, hike, cook, try new coffee shops, and spend time with my friends and family. I have a twin sister and an older brother, so it is extra special when our lives overlap at home over breaks! At Gonzaga, I am an honors student double majoring in Business Administration and Environmental Studies with a minor in Leadership Studies. I also work in the Office of Sustainability and am involved in Gonzaga Environmental Organization and Gonzaga Women in Business. Life is busy, but I love it!

While I have felt extremely connected to each pillar throughout this year, sisterhood has been perhaps the most impactful so far. I came early to one Wednesday night meeting and got chatting with a few of the other members who were there too. I had gotten an email that day about intramural registration closing soon, so I threw out an idea that had been bouncing around my mind: what if we started an intramural team? Knowing our group of fun, adventurous girls, I was not surprised when everyone was on board! We put together a team for flag football and were all so excited to play. I was nervous for our first game, especially because I did not know everyone super well, but we had a ton of fun! We ended up winning by something like 35 points, and I genuinely do not think I have ever been a part of such a supportive, positive sports team. We finished our season with an okay record but went on to win the whole playoff bracket and get shirts! It was such a great way to bond with my fellow Setons. We loved it so much that we decided to play again for 6 on 6 volleyball and are now in the middle of our season with a 3-0 record! The love and support that radiates through these intramural teams is incredible, and I am so thankful to be a part of such a wonderful sisterhood.
