γεια σου! (That’s Greek for “Hi!”)

My name (if you haven’t guessed already from its prominent position over my picture) is Sarah Johnson, and I am a member of the Class of 2009. I’m majoring in Urban Studies with a concentration in Urban Planning and Specialized Napping (but Stanford hasn’t incorporated the latter into the curriculum yet, so I don’t get units for the extra effort). I spent half of my life in LA and the other half in North Carolina—shout out to Siler City—with my parents and little brother…who I guess isn’t that little anymore. But I can pretend. :-) I [theoretically] play tennis and soccer, I like to read, sleep, go to the movies, and visit theme parks, and I speak two other languages exceptionally un-fluently. Just like my link above me, SouLjah, I LOVE music.

I feel I should mention here how much I adore Mariah Carey. I’ve been a fan since I was four—and I am not exaggerating. And my favorite color is…PURPLEBLACK&GOLD. Okay, seriously…my favorite color is purple. And my favorite food is pretzels…so if you want to get me a present…ahem.

Moving on, in the SPRING of 2006 I became a PROUD and exTREordinary sister of Sigma Theta Psi Sorority, Incorporated—one of my more brilliant moves, I must say :-). There really aren’t enough words to describe the many ways in which ΣΘΨ has enriched my life, not the least of which being the incredible sisterhood I share with my amazing sorors. If you want to find a woman of substance, come and talk to a Sigma.


Holdin’ it down for the TRE club,

Sarah

Hi everyone, my name is Samantha Sachs, but most people know me as Sammie. I am an enthusiastic member of the all-too-fine Stanford Class of '09, double majoring in English and Urban Studies with a minor in Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity. I'm from Deerfield, IL, a Northwest suburb of the great city of Chicago and a PROUD sister of the Delta Chapter of Sigma Theta Psi Sorority, Incorporated.

Ever since I could talk, I've been very involved in theater, and for a while I thought that performing was what I would do for the rest of my life. Ultimately, I chose the academic route and ended up at Stanford in the fall of 2005. Although never in my wildest dreams did I imagine myself in a sorority, becoming a member of Sigma Theta Psi in the Spring of '06 (holler ata 5 club!) has been one of the most fulfilling experiences I've had at Stanford. I cherish the Sisterhood that I have found with the true Women of Substance who comprise this organization, and I have infinite respect for the work and values that we uphold. I consider multiculturalism to be the most important principle that we embody--and something that the whole world needs to understand better, too!

Overall, I consider myself an eternal work in progress.

I love traveling, good lighting, movies, laughing hard, discovering new music, babies, hanging out with my Sorors, expanding my mind, and eating sweet food!

STP till I D.I.E.
