EOS, Earthwide Outreach by Students, promotes local,

regional, and international service learning. This club is

offered by Hanover College and gets students involved

in the betterment of the surrounding community as well

as foreign communities. This year Theta had three sisters

attend the mission trip to Guatemala. While there, these

women helped build a playground for children.

Volunteering more than twenty hours of their time each,

these Theta ladies worked to

make a difference in the lives

of those less fortunate. We are

truly lucky to have such

dedicated sisters!

Panhellenic WomenFor the past couple of years Theta has dominated the

Panhellenic Council, having the most girls from one

chapter. Out of the eight executive positions, three are held

by Thetas. Nu chapters Chief Marketing Officer, Kaitlin

Knapp, is the Vice President of Public Relations. Careen

Turner, a Junior Theta, is the Gamma Chi Director. And

our song chair, Sarah Gouker, is Panhellenics

Programming Director. All three of these women are very

dedicated and hard working. Kappa Alpha Theta truly

does breed strong leaders and her members are constantly

proving that as they strive to become active members in

the Hanover community.

Theta to Watch!

Lauren Harrison, a Freshman Theta, is

shaking up Hanover College. Upon

coming to Hanover in the fall, Lauren

knew that she wanted to make a

difference in the community. In order todo this she single handedly started a new

club, Adopt-A-Grandparent. Thornton

Terrace is a nearby nursing home with

quite a few residents. Inspiring her intoaction, Lauren decided to start a buddy

system to help integrate Hanover

students into this home.

Adopt-A-Grandparent was so successful

in its first year that it was awarded the

Outstanding Contribution to theCommunity award at the 2013 Student

Involvement Recognition Soiree. The

principals and responsibilities of

are an inspiration for me to continue my

lifelong pursuit of success. As a Theta, I

strive to be a supportive sister, goodstudent, and wish to gain leadership

experience within the house, as well as

through being an asset in assisting with

philanthropic events, Lauren Harrison.

Until the Violence StopsEvery year Hanover College hosts an event called the

Vagina Monologues, each monologue deals with an aspectof the feminine experience. Eight of our sisters directlyparticipated in this event, helping raise money andawareness for the Until the Violence Stops campaign.Careen Turner, a Junior Theta helped host the event and

states, seeing so many Thetas in leadership roles acrosscampus really encouraged me to want to do the same. This

years V-day event was an amazing experience and it was sonice to have so many sisters involved.
