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 ...

Nicola Ward: Leadership

    Hello everyone, my name is Nicola Ward, and I am from Palm Springs, CA! Here at Gonzaga, I am a current Business Administration major concentrating in Finance and Marketing while on a pre-law track. My career aspirations after Gonzaga are to attend law school and work as a corporate lawyer. Throughout my childhood, I loved dancing and was a competitive dancer for eight years. Now at Gonzaga, I am on the Bomb Squad, a hip-hop team that performs at on-campus sports events and at the WCC tournament in Vegas. Joining Setons this past year has greatly changed the trajectory of my sophomore year and future at GU. This organization has shown me the importance and rewarding effects of being a part of something greater than myself. Whether it be from our monthly service events in the Spokane community or our weekly sister dates, Setons ensures every member feels supported, valued, and connected. Setons has become a home away from home; a group that inspires me to grow and give back to my community. I'm excited for the opportunities this year to continue fostering friendships, create an indelible impact on GU’s campus, and continue learning from the inspiring women around me.
                            
    In Setons, our three main pillars—leadership, service, and sisterhood—form the foundation of our organization. While sisterhood and service are bonds we foster collectively, leadership is a unique quality each member develops in her own way. Setons gives members the opportunity to engage in leadership opportunities with over fifteen executive positions available. This year, I chose to run for Fundraising Chair, drawing on my past experience in similar roles. Serving on the executive board has allowed me to deepen my connection with this organization and has united us girls around a shared purpose. Working together toward the common goal of supporting this organization has strengthened my bonds with fellow sisters and created a space for meaningful collaboration. As we all continue to work together throughout this year, us girls are building a legacy of support and dedication that will continue to strengthen our sisterhood and make a lasting impact on this organization and Gonzaga’s campus
