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. Service was the pillar that drove me to join Setons, and I’m so ...

Lauren Kensel: Sisterhood

Hey y’all! My name is Lauren (or Lolo!), and I am from Newport Beach, California. I’m studying Business with a minor in Leadership Studies, and I live with my best friend Aiva, who also happens to be a Seton. I have a little brother named Braden and a puppy named Holly, and I miss our adventures together when I am in Spokane. I am one of the Social Chairs of Setons alongside Miss Katie Jo, and I also serve as a CLC leader through Mission and Ministry with our lovely President Maddie. I adore iced coffee, sunshine, cowgirl boots, and flowers, and I am so grateful to be part of such a special community on campus.
The pillar I will be reflecting on is sisterhood. I am so incredibly appreciative for the community of women that Setons has introduced me to. I have become close to girls that I never would have met if it wasn’t for this club, and I know that this is a network that I will be able to connect to and lean on for years to come. Coming into the club, I was a little nervous about making new connections. I can be a little shy sometimes, and I was worried that I wouldn’t make any fast friends. Quickly, my fears diminished. I felt so comforted when my sister Paige helped me choreograph a dance for my ballet final, and so joyful when getting to walk and chat with Tara, Georgia, and Mairead from our Wednesday night class to our weekly Setons meeting. I became close to Natalie and Alexa at our first semester service, laughed with Keely as we set up for retreat, planned events with the amazing Katie Jo, and went on the loveliest coffee walk and sister date with my favorite cross-country queen Kate. The true sisterhood that we have cultivated in our class is what makes me excited to go to service, meetings, classes, and the COG (where I run into my favorite Seton baes), and I owe my amazing sophomore experience to all the lovely Seton ladies that I get to call my besties!
