Eleanor Johnson: Service

Hi! My name is Eleanor Johnson, and I am from Snohomish, Washington. I am majoring in Accounting and Business Administration with a concentration in Management Information Systems and have a minor in dance. Outside of class I work with Campus Kitchens, a program on campus that takes leftover food from campus dining to cook warm meals that are then served to Gonzaga Family Haven and O’Malley Senior Center. Along with Setons I am apart of Women in Business, Beta Alpha Psi, and the involved in the Gonzaga dance program. In my free time I like to read, get coffee, take workout classes, and watch Gilmore Girls.   I joined Girl Scouts in first grade and ever since, Service has been extremely important to me and something I strive to keep a part of my life. Growing up in Girl Scouts allowed me to recognize the importance of helping those in my community from an early age and has ultimately led me to be the person I am today.

Olivia Galbraith: Sisterhood



           Hi everyone! My name is Olivia Galbraith, and I’m a public relations major with minors in

psychology and entrepreneurial leadership. I’m from Portland, OR, and I love the PNW

(especially the Oregon Coast). In my free time, I like to read, write, do puzzles, discover new

music, go to any and all concerts, and explore cool parks and trails. I grew up as a dancer and

swimmer, but now I love to go on runs. This year in Setons, I have been super thankful to

connect with the other girls and find that a lot of them have similar passions – it’s been

awesome finding community with the group.

Community is why I think the pillar of sisterhood is so valuable. When I first got accepted into

Setons, I knew a handful of the 29 other girls, but not very well. Getting to go on sister dates

every week and having socials every month has been tons of fun, but has also made me feel

like I belong in the community that we created. Having a sense of sisterhood makes me excited

to see the girls every Wednesday and during our service and socials, because I know we are

going to all complement each other and make things fun, regardless of what’s going on in life at

the moment. I think that sisterhood is also important because it extends outside of the moments

when we’re spending time together. You feel a sense of sisterhood when you pass a Seton on

the way to class, when you drive the few minutes on the way to weekly service, and when you

see everyone wearing their matching sweatshirts for Setons Wednesdays. Sisterhood brings us

all together, and it keeps us connected even when we’re not together – and likely will through

the rest of our college years.
