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.

Kate Ferrell: Service



Hey guys, my name is Kate Ferrell. I am an accounting major, and a history minor. I am from Western Springs IL, which is a suburb of Chicago. I love to run and am on Gonzaga’s women's cross country and track team, but my true passion is the intramural softball team I was on this fall. I also play piano in my free time and am a part of a film club so if you ever want to watch a movie on a Thursday night with your friends stop by Jundt 110. Some of my favorite things to do outside school and running is snowboarding, hiking, and getting froyo with friends!
I am going to be reflecting on the Setons pillar of Service. Service is a crucial part of our club, but it also holds a particularly special place in my heart. I was very active in the organization Dare2Tri when I was in highschool, which focused on helping disabled kids complete triathlons. I was a guide all throughout highschool, and loved helping the kids complete triathlons. Last fall I got to work more closely with kids again at OneHeart. OneHeart is an after school organization for children of the Spokane area that provides a place for kids to go to for dinner, and a chance to play games with other children. The relationships I made with the kids at the end of the semester really was one of the highlights of my time at Gonzaga so far. I am looking forward to more service opportunities this spring. I think of all the pillars Service is the one that I find the most rewarding in my life.
