ACROSS THE SISTERHOOD - Sisters respond to COVID-19 - Chapter Fundraisers - Candle Pass

Editorial Notes As the Greek philosopher Heraclitus said, the only thing that is constant in life is change. These past few months have surely made it seem that Heraclitus was right.

Life on and off campus has drastically changed. Sisters were faced with new challenges, from work-from-home to online learning, from hosting virtual movie nights to providing essential services which help our country stay healthy. All this, while working to keep Sisterhood alive from a distance.

As class and work and chapters have gone digital, we've had changes for the Newsletter Committee as well. This issue didn't turn out exactly like we had originally planned. But we're not afraid of change, because change can lead toward improvement.

That's why we wanted to share some of the results from last year's survey about what you want to see from The Lioness Loop: We used all the survey responses, including the statistics below, to help shape how and what we communicate. Our Sister Spotlight for this issue even came from a survey suggestion!

Individuals and chapters generally agreed about what content they want to see. Featured Chapter was the most popular newsletter feature(88.2% of Chapters and 86.3% of individuals), followed closely by Sister Spotlight (82.4% and 80%). National Organization Updates, Candle Pass and Photo Collages were popular options as well(all > 70%). New feature interest was highest for the Aďż˝::K Marketplace(82.5%), as well as a National Calendar and Themed Sister Profiles(> 70%).

e Annually e Twice a Year e Quarterly e Full issues Twice a Year, with smaller updates in-between e Three times a year (after fall semester, after spring semester, summer supplement)

Sisters

Chapters

We used the data above to change our distribution frequency this year to biannual full issues plus Winter and Summer supplements. Direct e-mail to Sisters and subscribers was the most desired method of distribution (selected by 82% of individuals and 64% of Chapters). We're not there yet, but are working toward that capability.

Heading into Convention 2020, we want to keep hearing from you about ways we can change and grow. We strive to keep Sisters connected and informed, no matter what changes come our way.

That said, you don't have to wait for another survey to share your ideas.

You can reach out to us at any time at newsletter@ask-wits.com.

We love to hear feedback, your stories and, of course, if you are interested in joining the Newsletter Committee!

Meet theNBoD Get to know the NDoR: Tara Naber Wh at w as you r Sch ool/ Ch apt er / M ajor ? B.S. in Chemical Engineering at Iowa State University - Epsilon Chapter - Rho Class Wh o m ade t h e biggest im pact on w h o you ar e t oday? Definitely my family. My parents gave my sisters and I the skills we needed to be independent and I?m very thankful for that. Other values I care a lot about because of them are accountability, responsibility, and honesty/integrity.

Wh er e ar e you n ow (an d w h at ar e you doin g pr of ession ally)? I live in Pleasant Hill, IA and I work in Des Moines, IA as an Environmental Engineer in the drinking water program at the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. I?ve been at this job for about four years and it's been good overall! I kind of fell into it - my first job out of college was in commercial and industrial water treatment and I was looking to leave that job when a Sister shared the job posting for my current job.

Wh at does you r f am ily look like? Me + my husband Michael + dogs Daisy and Shadow + cat Oscar Wh at ?s you r f avor it e t h in g t o do w it h you r f r ee t im e? Book + hot cocoa overflowing with marshmallows + cozy chair by the fireplace. I think of my kitchen as my own personal lab, and I like to experiment with things I?ve never made before. My two recent favorites are chocolate cookies with Andes mints melted on top and poached pears.

Wh at ar e you a f an of ? Sports-wise: the Minnesota Vikings and ISU Cyclones. Food-wise: potatoes, cookies, ice cream, and soups are my top four food groups.

Wh at is you r gu ilt y pleasu r e? Nancy Drew computer games.

Wh at w as t h e best advice you ever r eceived? Communication is hard - you will communicate better if you use the format preferred by your recipient(s).

Can you sh ar e a f avor it e ? ?? m em or y? My favorite memory is getting my Little, Laine. My favorite tradition was going to an early morning breakfast at The Grove Cafe in Ames on Friday of I-week (initiation week).

Wh at led you t o bein g NDoR? Oh boy. I was not planning on running when I went to 2019 Convention. My thoughts were that if I were to go for an NBoD position, I?d go for NDoR, but I was thinking a few years further down the road! The Board had an interim-NDoR who was not running for the position, so the vacancy needed to be filled for the term that started on January 1, 2020. I was in the middle of my term as Treasurer for the Epsilon Alumnae Chapter, but the rest of that executive board was supportive, so I went for it and was elected.

If you h ad on e piece of advice f or a Sist er ju st st ar t in g ou t in ? ?? w h at w ou ld it be? Take the time to tell your Sisters ?thanks? - for their work in a position, for their kindness, for whatever. That positive feedback is so valuable.

Wh at ?s you r t op pr ior it y f or t h e n ext year ? ???-wise, getting through the backlog of membership certificates and IDs, and getting our membership database up to date again.

Wh er e do you see t h e Or gan izat ion in 10 year s? I see the Organization near 20 Active Chapters. I expect that we?ll continue working on the foundation for that growth so we can support that level of activity on a national level.

I see stronger professional and personal networks for our alumnae to take advantage of and I hope our culture of sharing opportunities among our members grows!

Oh, and the yard needs to have a good spot for a hammock! I don?t care a ton about the exact location.

Featured Chapter Theta COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY FORT COLLINS, CO EST 03.28.2015

photo by Ed Robertson

On March 28th, 2020, the Theta Chapter of Alpha Sigma Kappa - Women in Technical Studies celebrated their 5-year Anniversary as an Active Chapter at Colorado State University. As in-person gatherings were not allowed, they took the celebration online, holding a virtual Big/Little Reveal and a Netflix Party with Sisters, watching " Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" !

Over its years of existence, the Theta Chapter has continued to develop as an organization and as a Sisterhood. Over the past year, they updated and wrote many policies; the biggest one being a J-Board policy. This policy was designed to provide a better outline of consequences and establish consistency in their implementation. It will also help future Vice Presidents run more efficient J-Board hearings.

In its 5th year, the Theta Chapter has 20 Actives and 1 Candidate, Sarah, whom they welcomed at their Bid Day (pictured above) earlier in the term. A few Theta Chapter traditions are doing P&Ts (Praises and Thanks) and Lioness of the Week at all Chapter meetings. Both of these traditions celebrate Sisters and their contributions to the Chapter and fellow Sisters. Additionally, the Chapter has " Pride Pals" for Candidates; every week an Active is paired with a Candidate for a Sister date, which helps Candidates really get to know the Active Sisters.

Communications Officer Michelle Bailey shared her experience, stating " I have truly found a home in this Organization. I joined my first semester of freshman year, back in 2016. I was new to the school, new to the area, and did not have many friends. Alpha Sigma Kappa welcomed me with open arms and I suddenly had like 20 Sisters! Through this Organization, I have found lifelong friends, gained so many wonderful memories, and improved my social, academic, and professional skills."

Congratulations to the Theta Chapter on 5 fabulous years. Here's to many more!

Celebrating our Graduates As they head out into the world, we want to take a moment to celebrate each of the amazing members of the Class of 2020.

In your time as Actives, you have lived our values: demonstrating leadership, friendship, support, and service. You have already accomplished so much; we can't wait to see what new adventures your futures hold!

Sister Spotlight Sandy and Jackie Rech | Kappa Chapter

photo by Geren deKlerk

Sisterhood has always been important to Jackie and Sandy Rech. As twins, they?ve been side-by-side their entire lives. When they started attending the University of Kansas together, they took Sisterhood to a new level by joining the Kappa Chapter of Alpha Sigma Kappa. We caught up with Sandy and Jackie about their experience in A?K, going through life together, and what lies ahead after graduation.

Sandy first heard about A?K at an engineering club fair. She had a really good chat with one of the Kappa Founders, and decided to attend an informational meeting. Jackie heard about the info meeting from Sandy and decided to attend, too.

After that, they decided to go through recruitment!

The most appealing aspect of joining A?K to Jackie was the chance to join a group of ladies who were going through the same experiences as women in engineering. At that time, the Chapter was fairly new and small, so Sandy was excited to help lay the foundation and watch it grow into the successful chapter it is today.

Sandy?s favorite A?K tradition is their chapter?s annual Friendsgiving, a chance to bond with Sisters and eat some great food. Jackie?s favorite tradition is the Big-Little program, because it has been so fun to watch the family lines grow. Sandy adds that one of her favorite A?K memories is jumping out of a present to reveal to her Little, Kali, that she was her Big. One of Jackie?s favorite memories is dancing with all of her Sisters at their first formal to the song ?Footloose.? Her favorite chapter activity was going

to the pumpkin patch to pick out pumpkins and carving them together. Sandy?s favorite activity was a ropes and zip line course they participated in during their sophomore retreat. She said, ?I thought it was a great bonding experience, conquering our fears as a group.? Jackie says her favorite thing about the Chapter is the dedicated, hard working group of girls who she gets to call her Sisters. Sandy agrees, adding that their chapter is special because they all have such diverse talents and interests.

One of the most important skills Jackie says she has learned, through her aerospace engineering major and A?K, is how to work with a group of diverse people with different ideas towards a main goal.

Sandy said she?s learned that having a solid support system of people can help you overcome challenges, in college and in daily life. One of the biggest challenges she?s worked to overcome is impostor syndrome in her field and courses. Her major is interdisciplinary computer science with a biology focus. Looking back, the advice she wishes she could give herself at the beginning of her college career would be ?never doubt your abilities.? Jackie?s advice to herself would be ?you?re going to make it through.? She feels she?s had to work hard to establish credibility among her peers and professors, but what gets her out of bed in the morning is having the chance to work for a future career and life that she can create. What gets Sandy out of bed in the morning? ?My cats,? she joked, ?and learning something new every day is pretty cool too.?

It?s a bittersweet time for the twin sisters, who are graduating this spring amid uncertainty caused by the coronavirus pandemic. They said, ?It?s been really sad not being able to celebrate the last semester of undergrad as we hoped. It has also been a challenge to balance school and home life with everything going on. We appreciate the support of our university and Sisters during this difficult time.?

We couldn?t resist, so we asked them to describe the worst and best parts of being a twin. Sandy said it?s hardest when she has to wave and act like Jackie when strangers think she is Jackie! She said the best part is being able to tag-team responsibilities. Jackie said the toughest part is not being able to wear the same outfits without being judged. So what?s her favorite part of being a twin?

Looking back, Sandy says her most memorable college experience was during the spring semester of her sophomore year, when she studied abroad in Australia at James Cook University. She had a wonderful semester of traveling, making friends, and being near the ocean. Jackie?s favorite memory was watching the Super Bowl in February 2020 with her friends and storming Massachusetts Street in downtown Lawrence after the Chiefs won. These memories are all the more precious now.

?Having a built-in best friend for life.?

The silver lining to all this is the bright futures that lie ahead for these two sisters. In a few months, Jackie plans to move to Los Angeles to begin working in space systems. Sandy is hoping to go to graduate school and earn her master?s in biological oceanography. And, of course, they will always have each other.

SistersMaking a Difference During a Pandemic

Alexandra Gobble | Eta Alum Medical Student in Washington "They pulled all medical students out of the clinical rotation. We've come together to babysit kids when parents have to work, to delivery food/groceries and to fill the lab so we can be testing at max capacity."

Emi Jones | Epsilon Alum Hydropower Operations Specialist in Oregon "The weirdest thing about going to work right now is how normal it seems and yet there are social distancing reminders and cleaning supplies everywhere, so I never escape awareness of the pandemic.

It creates a surreal feeling of quasi-normalcy while everyone around me is experiencing enormous change; in a way that is comforting but also strangely isolating."

Atisha Morrison | Theta Alum Epidimiologist in Texas "This entire experience has been a whirlwind. While trying to handle the high pressure situations at work, you are also dealing with the stress and fallout in your personal life. I think all of us working in public health, especially epidemiology, are ready to return to some normalcy, but also recognize we have a long way to go before we will return."

Katie O'Toole | Eta Alum Home Health Care in Rhode Island " With all elective surgeries canceled, we?re trying to find other ways to help the community. We are continuing to take care of our patients, many of which are elderly and vulnerable, we?re also taking care of each other. I am truly amazed at how my company has come together to support each other and our patients during this unprecedented time."

Ashley Bohnstengel | Epsilon Alum Cell and Gene Therapy QA in Nebraska "I find comfort knowing we are helping people learn about and provide them extraordinary care here in Nebraska."

Natalie Melton | Mu Alum Hospital Researcher in Pennsylvania Devon Montague | Theta Alum Pharmacy Technician in Colorado "Through this experience it?s been exhausting in every way possible, but it?s given me an opportunity to grow and learn how to adapt to change within a matter of minutes and hours."

"Since all non-COVID-19 research has come to a halt at the University of Pittsburgh, I?ve had the opportunity to do work I wouldn?t have had the chance to do otherwise - including completely reorganizing my lab?s files and co-authoring a publication."

Iota Active Chapter Flower Power Fundraiser The Sisters of the Iota Chapter are fundraising to spread positivity by providing colorful flower bulbs to plant. The money raised will help Sisters pay Fall 2020 semester dues.
