February’s Panhellenic Woman of the Month:
Jessica Caldwell Because of her determination to cross cultural borders, Jessica Caldwell was chosen as February’s Panhellenic Woman of the Month. This SIS major and Kappa Alpha Theta sister spent the 2006- 2007 school year abroad in China, and is now a fluent speaker in Chinese. She plans to move to China with Model UN after she graduates in the spring.
As a member of the Greek community, Jessica was able to get more students involved in the charity clothing drive she helped to run, which benefited four global charities in various countries. She is extremely well versed in China’s economic, political, and social climate, and she incorporates her experiences abroad into all her classes. She enjoys being a part of the Chinese Club, as well as practicing her foreign language skills with other students, and is constantly encouraging others to study abroad, so that they too can experience something new and different. Jessica’s cross-cultural experiences have brought diversity to her chapter in wonderful, mind-opening ways. Her presence not only in the Greek community, but on campus, inspires people around her to learn about other cultures and traditions. March’s Panhellenic Woman of the Month:
Kelly Miller As a huge part of both Greek life at Pacific and the Field Hockey women’s team, Kelly Miller sets forth an example of how to manage and balance her time and passions. Even though she had suffered an injury last year, Kelly is at every practice and every game bringing positive energy. She is still recovering, but she makes it a point to be an active part of both organizations, including her sorority Kappa Alpha Theta. Her great attitude and determination inspire everyone around her. Kelly took her love for both groups and combined them. She encouraged athletes to go Greek, and by getting members of her sorority involved in intramural sports. The Susan G. Komen foundation is the charity of the Panhellenic Council. To help, Kelly passed out breast cancer placards to the athletic department. Breast cancer is a concern for women everywhere, and sororities are working to raise money for the foundation. Nevertheless, Kelly is taking the cause to the next step by raising awareness outside of the Greek community. Kelly is caring, encouraging and full of life, the perfect example of a Greek sorority woman.
