Meet Samantha:
Hi! My name is Samantha and I am a first year student hailing from Pennsylvania. My assistantship is in UGA's Greek Life Office, lovingly referred to as "the GLO."
One of the best experiences for me so far has been the GLO's Executive Board Retreat. It was held before school began in January and included members of our four councils (Interfraternity (IFC), Multicultural (MGC), National Pan-Hellenic (NPHC), and Panhellenic) and the GLO staff. We traveled to a wonderful inn nestled between the north Georgia foothills and spent two days reviewing UGA policies, goal setting, building leadership skills, and bonding!
Along with our NPHC advisor, I led a workshop on diversity. It went really well and the discussion that followed was revealing and honest. By the end of the retreat, we were all tired, but energized about the upcoming year! Personally, I am so excited to work with our new leaders and can't wait to help implement their plans.
Up next for me is the ugaMIRACLE Dance Marathon, being held over 24 hours on February 7th and 8th. This event culminates a year's worth of fundraising for the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. The students have been working overtime in preparation and it is going to be a great event! For those interviewing the second weekend, I apologize if I'm exhausted on Sunday, but it will be completely worth it!
Check out our terrific Greek leaders:
