Our Graduates

As the semester comes to an end, Zeta Nu wanted to congratulate 10 beautiful graduates within our chapter. These hard-working ladies have represented Clemson University and Alpha Delta Pi SO well. We are so proud and we cannot wait to see what the future holds for each of them!

Molly Yost

“Wow! I cannot believe my 3.5 years at Clemson has come to an end. Joining ADPi has meant joining a group of strong and compassionate women who have pushed me to grow into the independent woman that I am today. I am very thankful to ADPi for not only my beautiful friends, but also for the community it gave me. My favorite ADPi memory was ClemsonLIFE Bid Day as this was when our wonderful ClemsonLIFE member, Grace, came into my life! I am very proud to be a part of a sorority that always strives for inclusiveness. I will always hold the people I met in ADPi, especially my Diamond Family, close to my heart as I step into the next chapter of my life. I feel incredibly blessed to say that I will be continuing my journey in Durham, NC as I have accepted a job at Duke University Hospital as an oncology nurse. I am so excited for this next chapter in my life and I can’t wait to see what it holds for me! All the Pi love, Molly.” -Molly Yost, AC ‘17

Rebekah Lannamann

“In February I will be moving to Charlotte where I will be starting as a nurse resident on the ICU floor at Novant Hospital. For one year, I will rotate through their four different ICUs before deciding on which one I would like to work on. Throughout college, ADPi's sisterhood has meant so much to me. It means always having a friend in your classes, someone to study with, and a sister to support you in all your endeavors. My favorite ADPi memory is the Mallard Ball last year. I had so much fun dancing and being surrounded by all my friends!!” -Rebekah Lannamann, AC ‘17

Jane Janick

“When I think of my favorite ADPi memories, I think of my forever friend Delaney who grew up with me from freshman year to her bridal party, the most encouraging friend Julia who I can talk to for hours on end, my sweet, full-of-life little Kiely, my NYC summer roommate and best influence Emory, my crazy friend Hannah who agreed to road trip to Nola with me and 10 boys... the list goes on. Sisterhood has shown itself through many memories and friendships I will forever hold close to my heart. As far as looking toward the future, I’m hung up chasing a dream I’ve had since I was a little girl. After spending my summers as a Buying Intern for American Eagle and then QVC, I’m currently interviewing with a few brands in hopes of being a real life Assistant Buyer. To all my sisters, you can literally do anything, I promise. What a blessing this incredible chapter has been. Diamonds are forever my ladies.” -Jane Janick, AC ‘17

Katie Blackwood

“I will always cherish my time in Zeta Nu. From being an Alpha to a Pi, this sisterhood is like no other. When running down Bowman in 2017, each sister I met embraced me with open arms. We all push each other to be our very best. I knew I could always call on any one of my sisters if I needed help in any way. My favorite ADPi memory would have to be serving with our 2020 Executive Committee. We all faced many challenges during our term, but each one of us adapted to any obstacle or change with so much grace and compassion for our chapter. From a virtual Recruitment to a virtual Initiation, I will forever hold on to these memories from our weekly Wednesday gatherings. Following graduation, I will still remain in the Clemson area for the Spring semester. I will continue teaching fitness classes at the YMCA in Seneca as well as tutoring for the Clemson athletes. In the fall of 2021, I plan to attend graduate school to pursue a Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology. While I do not hear back from any schools until mid-March, I am positive that the Lord will place me exactly where I need to be. I look forward to working, serving, and specializing in Dysphagia in both the hospital and nursing home!” -Katie Blackwood, AC ‘17

Emily Bryant

“Hey again! My name is Emily Bryant! I am a senior here at Clemson in Alpha Delta Pi and I (sadly) will be graduating at the end December. I would stay for another 4 years if they would let me! Coming to Clemson from out of state was easily the hardest, yet best decision of my life. Like it is for everyone, Freshman year was a huge transition period, but ADPi truly made the change much easier by providing me with the sweetest and most supportive group of friends. Since running down Bowman to ADPi in 2017, I have made countless memories with the same girls that were beside me that day and have had so many opportunities that wouldn’t be possible without ADPi. Knowing that this semester would be my last, I made the conscious effort to take time each day to reflect on my three and a half years here and soak in all of my “lasts”. Doing this made me realize just how much of an impact ADPi and its members have had on my college experience and on my life. Whether I needed someone to celebrate with, a shoulder to cry on, or anything in between, I knew I had multiple girls just one call away ready to be there for me in whatever way I needed. I have had the best times of my life with my ADPi sisters and I wouldn’t change a thing for the world. This sorority has brought me the best of friends that I know will be by my side through every milestone of life. In February, I will be moving to Nashville, Tennessee to work as a RN at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center. I am so excited for this opportunity and to finally make my dreams of being a nurse come true. I can’t wait to be in Nashville, but I am also already counting down the days until I am back visiting my girls in Clemson. I cannot put into words how thankful I am for Clemson Alpha Delta Pi and all the joy it has given me throughout my time here!” -Emily Bryant, AC, ‘17

Emily Lynch

“Hey y'all, I'm Emily! I have just graduated from Clemson with a Bachelor's of Science in Animal and Veterinary Sciences and a minor in Biological Sciences. I have applied to several veterinary schools in hopes of attending one next fall. In the meantime, I will be working for Martin Veterinary Services, a mixed animal veterinary practice based out of Williamston, SC. I am so excited to be able to stay in the Clemson area while I continue to work hands-on with a variety of animals including dogs, cats, cows, horses, goats, and the occasional raccoon. I went through Recruitment my Sophomore year at Clemson and joining ADPi was one of the best things to ever happen to me. I was able to meet a great group of women and be surrounded by people who pushed me to be the best version of myself. I am forever grateful to Zeta Nu for the friendships and opportunities it has brought me. The people are my favorite memory and I will cherish the time spent with all my sisters. I am ever loyal to this college and these women. Go Tigers!” -Emily Lynch, AC ‘18

Hannah Joye

“My name is Hannah Joye, and I am graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree from Clemson. I cannot believe how quickly graduation came. Growing up, I was always told that college would be the best 4 years of my life, and, without a doubt, that has been true for me. I have been challenged and encouraged to become the best version of myself over the last 3.5 years, and that is largely in part to the support from the Zeta Nu chapter of Alpha Delta Pi. From the very beginning as a freshman, I was surrounded by women who had the same passion for achievement and growth as myself. ADPi has provided me with the best friends and community I could have ever imagined, and I will even have sisters standing next to me on my wedding day next summer. My favorite ADPi memory would have to be Mallard Ball just this past November. Mallard is special because it is unique to our chapter, but this year with everything looking different, putting on the camo overalls one last time was a gift, and I will treasure that night forever. I am so grateful for the countless memories that ADPi has provided, and I truly cannot imagine my college experience without this group of women. Beginning in the new year, I will be moving to Charlotte, North Carolina to begin a career in Labor and Delivery nursing. I am looking forward to the life change ahead, but Clemson and Zeta Nu will always be home.” Hannah Joye, AC ‘17

Nan Spacek

“My name is Nan Spacek and I am graduating from Clemson with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. After graduation, I plan to start a nursing job at Vanderbilt Health in Nashville, TN. I am so grateful to Alpha Delta Pi for the amazing group of girls it has given me. This organization has supported me, loved me, and pushed me so much over my time here at Clemson. Trying to pick a favorite memory from these past four years almost seems impossible, but I think one of the sweetest moments I’ve had was this year's Mallard Ball while dancing with all my friends, singing at the top of our lungs to the song 'Live Like You Were Dying.' I think it was probably the happiest I've been, but somehow there wasn't a dry eye in the whole group. Saying goodbye to my time here at Clemson is made especially hard knowing I am also saying goodbye to this organization. Thank you Alpha Delta Pi for giving me something that I know I will cherish forever.” -Nan Spacek, AC ‘17

Ella Marie Melton

“Hi! My name is Ella Marie Melton and I will be graduating this December with a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing! I am so excited to be heading back to Tennessee after I graduate! I have accepted a job at Vanderbilt Medical Center in their Nurse Residency Program in Nashville, Tennessee on the Adult Acute floor. I am thrilled to learn and grow my nursing skills through this program, and I cannot wait to meet new people and care for my patients. There are truly not enough words to describe how much Clemson ADPi has meant to me these past four years. ADPi has given me so many opportunities for leadership and has provided me with confidence to be bold and try new things. Through ADPi, I have had the chance to serve others and give back to my community. I am beyond thankful for ADPi for giving me lifelong best friends, fun memories, and opportunities for leadership and service to others. I am so ready to start my new journey thanks to the love and support I have experienced from Clemson ADPi. One of my very favorite ADPi memories is from Mallard Ball my Junior year. My friends stayed the entire time at Sleepy Hollow dancing and having a good time! We were having so much fun that when the band started packing up for the night, we begged them to play one more song just for us and they did! This is just one of my favorite memories that I will never forget and cherish for a lifetime.” -Ella Marie Melton, AC ‘17

Abigail Cox

“I can’t believe graduation came so fast! This December I will begin a full time position as an Operations Coordinator at a logistics company in Greenville. I’m so thankful for my time at Clemson and my sisters in ADPi who have supported me, loved me, and become my family away from home. As cheesy as it may be, I’ll never forget running down Bowman on Bid Day and the pure joy of joining the very best sisterhood. We really do live for each other.” -Abigail Cox, AC ‘17

More than she was known for her accomplishments, she was known for the way she loved_ — Morgan Harper Nichols.jpeg

Zeta Nu loves you all, forever.

Emily DelSordo

“Hi!!! My name is Emily DelSordo and I’m from Hillsborough, New Jersey. I’m a freshman Elementary Education major and I would absolutely love to teach 3rd or 4th graders! When I was trying to decide what school would be my home for the next four years, there was no doubt Clemson was the place for me. Clemson has always been my childhood dream school and my family loves Clemson football so I can’t believe this dream became a reality! I’m really looking forward to getting involved in everything Clemson has to offer including Clemson Hope, ClemsonLIFE, and CUGA. Some of my favorite places to go in Clemson include the South Carolina Botanical Gardens, the Dikes at Lake Hartwell, and of course, Death Valley. I love game days, nature walks, the beach, hanging with my family & friends, and ice cream (especially Spill the Beans!!) This semester has been the best three months of my life and I’m so excited to come back in the spring. I’ve met some of the best people through ADPi and I can’t wait to make more memories and lifelong friendships with my sisters! Go Tigers!!!” -Emily DelSordo, AC ‘20

Kate Dipalma

“My name is Kate Dipalma and I am a sophomore from Greenville, South Carolina. My major is business management and I want to pursue a career in medical sales. I chose Clemson because it was always my dream school growing up. A fun fact about me is I am also a cheerleader here at Clemson! I’m thankful to be a part of ADPi and the wonderful sisterhood it has to offer.” -Kate Dipalma, AC ‘20

Canton Moehler

“Hey everyone! My name is Canton Moehler and I am a sophomore from Atlanta, Georgia majoring in Psychology! When applying for college, I really wanted to look for a school where I would feel welcomed with open arms and free to be myself. Clemson really caught my eye because of the family atmosphere, good academics, Greek life, and, of course, the football!! I wanted to try something new and adventure out of my comfort zone, and Clemson was just the place for me! Since then, I have loved being a Tiger and a part of such an amazing community, especially becoming a sister of ADPi! It has been such a cool and special experience meeting girls from all over and joining something bigger than myself! I absolutely love spending time with friends, whether that's on Monday nights at YoungLife club with TL Hanna students, going on hikes (or anything else to keep me active and up on my feet), a Bachelorette night in with the girls, or a fun night out on the town in Greenville/Atlanta! I am forever grateful for Clemson and ADPi, and I can’t wait to see where the rest of my time here in Tiger Town will take me!” -Canton Moehler, AC ‘20

Erin Hoover

“Hey guys! My name is Erin Hoover, and I am from Atlanta, Georgia. I am a freshman studying Pre-Professional Health Science on the Pre-Med track with an intended minor in Psychology. I hope to pursue my goal of becoming a Physician’s Assistant or Occupational Therapist. Clemson first caught my eye when I was in middle school as my two cousins and brother decided to attend Clemson University. When I visited a Clemson football game, I instantly knew this is where I wanted to go to college. The orange and purple were everywhere I went and I loved it! The vast school spirit is what sparked my love for the university. As I continued to visit the campus throughout my senior year of high school, I continually noticed the “Clemson Family'' that is always talked about throughout the Clemson community. From the beginning, I knew that Clemson was and would be a special place to me, and that did not change after my first semester here. I feel that I have already made lifelong friends through Alpha Delta Pi, and I have fulfilled my dream to be a Clemson Cheerleader on the All-Girl team. I love spending my Saturdays on (or as close to) the sidelines and cheering on the best football team in the country! Along with cheering, I love to go on runs, spend time with my friends and family, travel to any beach or lake, play tennis, and go to concerts. I am extremely grateful to be a part of ADPi’s sisterhood because I have met the most genuine, caring, and selfless girls. I cannot wait for three and a half more years with them! Boom Boom and GO TIGERS!!” -Erin Hoover, AC ‘20

Sarah Beth Holloway

“Hey y'all!! My name is Sarah Beth Holloway, and I am a sophomore from Augusta, Georgia. I am a Secondary Education and English major with dreams of teaching high school English at a Title 1 school. Being a student at Clemson has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. As a little girl, I knew that there was something different about Clemson. My favorite part of the year was always football season when my family would pack up and head to Clemson for the weekend. This season was the 19th season that I have spent in Death Valley, making it one of my favorite places in the world! Clemson has always felt like home to me. Getting my acceptance letter was one of the best days of my life. Last year I was a part of the Bridge to Clemson program and was able to get involved in Young Life and meet some of my very best friends! This August I was placed as a Young Life leader at Seneca High School! Go Cats! Coming into college, I always knew that being in a sorority was something that I wanted to be a part of. My mom was an ADPi at Clemson and growing up she would tell me about the sweet memories she made with her sisters. When I was going through recruitment, ADPi felt like home because the girls that I talked to reminded of my mom- caring, compassionate, fun, and loyal. Going ADPi was that much sweeter because not only did I get to be a part of an amazing group of women, but also because I got to share something really special with my mom! Being a part of ADPi is one of the best things that has happened to me. I am so thankful for the friendships I have made and the way ADPI has pushed me to be the best person I can be. Getting to do life and learn from girls like Caroline Daw, Charlotte Anne Beers, Avery Anderson, Rebecca Lannamen, and so many more has been one of the biggest blessings of life this far! I look forward to the memories I will continue to make during my time here at Clemson. I am so thankful to be a part of AC ‘20! Go Tigers! Go ADPi!!” -Sarah Beth Holloway, AC ‘20

Reilly Ray

“My name is Reilly Ray and I am a freshman Political Science major from Manning, SC. I graduated from Laurence Manning Academy and I am so excited to now be a Clemson Tiger! My career goal is to attend law school and become an attorney. I have been a competitive dancer for 10 years and can't wait to try out for campus dance teams next year! I also love hanging with friends, spontaneous beach trips, and lunch dates to Chick-Fil-A. Other things I love are study sessions, walks on the Dikes, late night chats with my besties, and, of course, game days in Tiger Town!! I am so happy to be home for break, but already miss my sisters so much! So excited for next semester and all the fun that it will hold!!” -Reilly Ray, AC ‘20

Katie Catledge

“Hey y’all! My name is Katie Catledge and I am from Lancaster, South Carolina. I am a freshman Business Finance major and I hope to become a Financial Planner one day! Growing up a Tiger, I have been surrounded by all the things Clemson, so when my twin sister and I both got accepted it was a dream come true not just for me, but for my parents too! So far, I have had a blast participating in the CUBS Program, getting involved in ADPi, and in the Newspring rally group. I have already made so many fun memories as an ADPi and I am looking forward to making many more! As always, Go Tigers!” -Katie Catledge, AC ‘20

Emily Slawson

“Hi guys!!! My name is Emily Slawson. I'm from Hilton Head Island, SC! I am a German & International Business major with a minor in Travel & Tourism. During my senior year of high school, I spent a year living in Switzerland and totally fell in love with Europe and everything about it (that's also where I picked up my German!). I have such a passion for the language and can't wait to see what my future entails! I have always grown up a Tiger fan and have been tailgating and coming to games with my family for forever! Clemson was such an easy decision for me because of everything this amazing university has to offer, and, of course, I wanted to follow in my dad & sister’s footsteps!! I'm a big beach girl but I love the mountains and the lake that Clemson has to offer! Clemson ADPi has been such a blessing in my life and I am so thankful for all the friendships and memories I have already made through this amazing sorority!!! So much love for Clemson ADPi and I can't wait to grow in this sisterhood.” -Emily Slawson, AC ‘20

Liz Kuiper

“Hey y’all! My name is Liz Kuiper and I am from Greenville, South Carolina. I am currently a nursing major here at Clemson and would love to go further to become a nurse practitioner and work in the NICU. I grew up coming to Clemson games as a child and it has always felt like a home. When it was finally my time to choose where to go, there was no place I would rather be. With the amazing nursing program and it being the happiest place on earth, coming to Clemson was not even a question. It has been such a blessing being in ADPi and meeting the amazing girls in our Alpha Class. Going through recruitment, ADPi felt like home and I knew these girls would push me to be the best I can be. I love to spend my free time with my family and friends and make great memories. Even with all that is going on, it has been the best semester with even better people!!” - Liz Kuiper, AC ‘20

Taylor Grace Scott

“Hey everyone! My name is Taylor Grace Scott and I’m from Anderson, South Carolina! I was actually born in Greensboro, NC, but my family moved here 15 years ago when my dad started working as a professor at Clemson. Ever since then, Clemson has been my dream school and I have had the absolute best first semester here. I played volleyball and basketball pretty much my whole life, and being on teams with such amazing girls is a major part of why I value community so dearly. I am also so excited to continue my involvement in sports through my position as our chapter’s Intramural Chair! I am a Psychology major, and I hope to be able to use my education to help others in the future, as I am on a pre-med track. I love sushi and all things chocolate, trips to the beach, lake days with friends, and spending time with my little sister Caroline. I have grown up in a strong church community, and am so thankful to be in an amazing FCA group with the most caring girls and leaders! My mom was an ADPi when she was in college, and I am honored to be carrying on the legacy at Clemson. This chapter and all of the girls that I have met are some of the best people I know and have truly become my sisters! Can’t wait for the next four, Go Tigers! :)” - Taylor Grace Scott, AC ‘20

Kylie Foley

“Hi! My name is Kylie Foley and I am from Franklin, Tennessee, but I am currently living in Dublin, Ireland. I am a freshman majoring in finance. I chose to go to Clemson because I felt at home the minute I stepped on campus. I definitely made the right choice and couldn’t imagine being anywhere else! I’ve had the privilege of being involved in the Freshman Council and Call My Name student advisory board. I’ve made such great friends this semester and I can’t wait to continue to make new bonds. Clemson is truly a family and I am so blessed to be a part of it! ADPi has encouraged me to improve my grades, get involved, and be my best self. I am so blessed to be a part of such a great sisterhood and I can’t wait for the years to come!” - Kylie Foley, AC ‘20

Anne Horton

“Hey guys!! My name is Anne Horton and I am a current freshman here at Clemson University, pursuing a degree in Marketing with an intended minor in Brand Communications. I am from Charleston, S.C. and although I really enjoyed growing up in a coastal city, I also love the change of scenery here in Clemson and being closer to the mountains! While at Clemson, I look forward to being involved in organizations such as FCA and YoungLife, as well as starting my own club called the Clemson Home Club! This first semester here at Clemson has been one of the best times of my life and I have loved taking advantage of all the campus and ADPi have to offer. From meeting new friends to making lifelong memories, this semester has been nothing short of the time of my life, and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. After coming from a family full of Clemson fans, with everyone from my great-grandfather to my own parents going here, I knew there was something special about this University and I am so glad I now get to enjoy it for myself! I am also so excited and blessed to serve as this year’s Community Service Specialist for Alpha Delta Pi, and can’t wait for all the memories to come at this school and in this amazing chapter!!” -Anne Horton, AC ‘20

Riley Mayfield

“Hi y’all! My name is Riley Mayfield and I’m from Blythewood, S.C.- right outside of Cola! I am an intended Bioengineering pre-med major and I am very eager to get more involved in this field! I am so so excited to be a part of ADPi and already love the community I’ve found within our chapter. I was very involved in high school with student government and throughout the school and loved every single bit of it. I definitely cherished the community I found from my involvement in high school, and know it is most important to me to continue creating a community with people I love at Clemson. I am the first person to go to Clemson from my Gamecock family, but it didn’t take me very long to fall in love with this school. I love how everyone has a strong work ethic and that I feel surrounded by those who will help me grow! I love the people and that while Clemson is a big school, it really does feel smaller than it is. While I had my struggles of choosing a college, I know Clemson was definitely the right choice for me and I am All In!” - Riley Mayfield, AC ‘20

Olivia Hamm

“Hey guys!! I’m Olivia Hamm from a suburb of Chicago, Illinois called Wheaton! I am a freshman pursuing a Nursing major with the goal of becoming an emergency room nurse someday. With two older brothers who constantly had sports on the TV, Clemson was always in the back of my mind and once I visited campus, I just knew. The nursing program felt like home and I couldn’t be happier with my decision! Since coming to campus, I’ve fallen in love with the people I’ve met and the clubs I've gotten involved in. I feel so blessed to have met my people through ADPi and look forward to getting to know even more of my sisters. Some of my favorite things include sunrises, game days, working out, traveling, the lake, and country music. I am so excited for next semester and the next three years to come and to become even more involved within ADPi and Clemson as a whole. GO TIGERS!!” - Olivia Hamm, AC ‘20

Amelia Moffatt

“Hey y’all! My name is Amelia Moffatt, and I am from Birmingham, Alabama. I am a Nursing major here at Clemson, and I’m so thankful to also be a part of Alpha Delta Pi!! I chose Clemson for many reasons. My dad attended Clemson, so I grew up a tiger fan even in Alabama! I also wanted to have a new experience and environment as well as get out of my comfort zone, and I have never been more thankful I chose this school. Furthermore, Clemson has given me the opportunity to pursue my dream career in nursing in hopes of becoming a Nurse Anesthetist in a Children’s Hospital one day. In my free time, I love to spend time with my family and friends. I have loved meeting all of my new sisters (slowly) in person as this semester has progressed, and I couldn’t be more thankful for all of the incredible friends, mentors, and supporters Zeta Nu has gifted me with. I knew I wanted to become an ADPi during my first round of recruitment when the conversations I had with the upperclassmen were so meaningful and truly showed that they cared about me for who I was and am today. Everyone I have met so far has been truly intentional in all of their actions as well as so welcoming this first semester even in the midst of these crazy times. Lastly, some of my favorite things are sunsets, country music, the lake, chicken fingers, my faith, coffee, and walks. I can’t wait for the best four years here at Clemson in Alpha Delta Pi and GO TIGERS!” - Amelia Moffatt, AC ‘20

Olivia Hennessy

“Hey everyone! My name is Olivia Hennessy and I’m from Virginia Beach, VA. I am currently a freshman majoring in Business Management with the intended minor of Nonprofit Leadership. I loved growing up in my beach town but when it was time for college, I knew I wanted the adventure of going out of state. I trusted my gut and accepted Clemson, without even stepping on campus. Since then, I have been lucky enough to find my home away from home. I have loved every game day, sleepover with my big, and downtown coffee dates. ADPi has given me the opportunity to meet my closest friends on campus and I am so excited for all the memories to come!” - Olivia Hennessy, AC ‘20

Grace Kramer

“Hey everyone! My name is Grace Kramer and I am from Charlotte, North Carolina. I am a freshman Biological Sciences major on a Pre-Med track because of my love for helping others! I have been a dancer my entire life and when it came time to start thinking of potential colleges, I immediately started researching if I could dance in college. It wasn’t long until I stumbled upon Clemson University. The Rally Cat’s orange sparkly uniforms caught my eye. Shortly after I told my parents I wanted to attend Clemson University, the opportunity came and I finally toured Clemson. The moment I stepped on campus I knew that this was it. It was home. Normally, I am a very indecisive person but this decision I was able to make instantly. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to be a student here, be a part of the Rally Cats Dance Team, and wear the orange sparkly uniform that sparked my love for this school. Let’s just say dreams really do come true. I am so thankful to have found my sisters within Alpha Delta Pi! I can't wait to meet more people and make memories together. As always, Go Tigers!” - Grace Kramer, AC ‘20

Emily Reynolds

“Hey everybody!! My name is Emily Reynolds, and I am a freshman from the little town of Sumter, South Carolina. I am currently a Psychology major with dreams of becoming a physical therapist one day. I grew up attending South Carolina football games and never thought I’d end up being a student at Clemson, but now that I’ve been here for three months, I truly cannot imagine myself anywhere else. To me, Clemson is more than just buildings and loads of orange and purple. Clemson is where the colors of the fall leaves are a little more vibrant. It’s a place where strangers pass you on the sidewalk, smiling from ear to ear. Clemson is a place for new beginnings, and it continues to blow me away everyday. The past few months have allowed me to tap back into areas of my life that I’m passionate about, and I’ve been learning that creativity and imagination blossoms if we just allow it to. Music and art are ways that I’ve been able to express myself when words simply can’t capture what I’m feeling. I’m thankful for organizations such as FCA and Younglife that have provided me with powerful encouragement and meaningful friendships this semester at Clemson. I feel so blessed and excited to be a part of this year’s amazing alpha class!! GO ADPI!!!!!” - Emily Reynolds, AC ‘20

Dodie Shaw

“Hey y’all! My name is Dodie Shaw, and I am from Augusta, Georgia. I am majoring in Biological Sciences with the hope of becoming an occupational therapist. Ever since a young age, I have had a passion for helping individuals with special needs, and I hope to enrich my love for helping others during my time at Clemson. ADPi has brought me the wonderful opportunity of serving as our chapter’s ClemsonLIFE Chair Assistant, and I could not be more excited to see what this position has in store for me. Although my Dad’s side of the family is full of tiger fans, choosing Clemson for myself was a personal decision. While going through the college selection process, I realized how distinctly unique Clemson is. I absolutely adore how the Clemson community embraces others with open arms, and encourages their students to have a truly well rounded college experience. Now that I am officially a Clemson tiger, I could not be more grateful for the Clemson family that loves each other so well. I love spending quality time with my friends and family, staying rooted in my faith, going to the beach, traveling, shopping and all things fashion, skiing and tubing while at the lake, and drinking iced coffee. Although I have not been a member of ADPi for very long, the sisterhood I have already formed is something I will treasure for the rest of my life. Being surrounded by such confident, self motivated, and compassionate girls on a day to day basis has been so incredible. I am so looking forward to the next four years alongside the most special sisters! Go Tigers!” - Dodie Shaw, AC ‘20

Kate Lalley

“Hey! My name is Kate Lalley and I am from Atlanta, Georgia! I have wanted to go to Clemson my whole life since my mom went here and always brought me to visit. She was also an ADPi so it feels like a dream to be here and be a part of Alpha Delta Pi! I am majoring in Business Marketing and hoping to pursue a career in a marketing department of a fashion company. In my spare time, I love spending time with my family and close friends. I am an (aspiring) morning person, love sunrises, long runs, green tea, shopping, and spontaneous adventures! It has been such a blessing to meet all of my new ADPi sisters who share some of these interests with me and also introduce me to their personal interests as well. Going into recruitment, my desire was to find a place that had girls who would push me to grow in these next four years and be my go-to people through college and on. I always saw this attribute in the girls in Alpha Delta Pi and knew that was the place for me! As I am nearing the end of my first semester here at Clemson, I could not be happier knowing this college and this sorority is where I am supposed to be!” - Kate Lalley, AC ‘20

I have always had a passion for working with others and helping people in any way that I can. Clemson has an amazing Nursing program, which was a huge part of why I wanted to come to school here. I also love the family-like environment on campus because it makes everyone feel like they are a part of something bigger than themselves. We are all so different, but Clemson has something for everyone! Becoming involved on campus in the Clemson Honors College, ADPi, and Student Nurses’ Association has allowed me to meet so many new people and really get connected to the school! A few of my absolute favorite things are spending quality time with my family and friends, going on trips to new places, and being active.
