Student Life at Puget Sound

So This semester is going to be awesome.  With RDG, luau, working at the cellar ( shout out to my cellar friends!), senior thesis and trying to find out what to do after graduation, I am going to be so busy! My sorority (Alpha Phi) just got done with recruitment and we got 32 awesome new pledges!! All the sororities did great and so did the fraternities.  It is really great to see the Greek system strong and thriving on campus.  This semester I am focusing on finishing some of those things on my Puget Sound Bucket list! I will keep you all updated on how it goes!!

Wow, back to school for truly the last time. Well until grad school I guess! It was nice to be home but I am truly excited about this semester. I am taking three classes in my majors and I am really excited about all of them. I am also looking forward to RDG, Luau, and spending time participating in my sorority. College has gone by quickly but I am going to really take in this last semester. Good luck to everyone with classes!!

Hello all,

Sorry I have not posted since the beginning of the year! This final year has been crazy and I have been working really hard at school and all my activities.  I enjoy all of my classes and have really been participating in my majors this year.  So if you get a chance take a Politics and Government and/or a Comparative Sociology class.  All the professors are great and the classes are very interesting….or just become a major in either!!!

I am involved in RDG and it has been tons of fun.  The performances are next week so everyone should come and see all the amazing dances.  Things like RDG and Alpha Phi are things which truly keep me going when things get really crazy during the school year. 

So..still working on the bucket list and will add more things as the year goes on.  I hope everyone is having a fabulous fall and enjoying their classes!!!

Hello,
This is my first post and I am really excited! So I will tell you all a little about myself.
My name is Maureen and I am from the grand state of Oregon! I went to private schools up until high school, and I played water polo, ski raced and swam. My father is a Puget Sound alumni and so is my older cousin. So I am happy to carry on the tradition. I am a politics and government, comparative sociology double major and looking to go to law school soon after graduation. I am also a member of Alpha Phi sorority and RDG.
I love coming back to school and seeing wide eyed freshman embarking on a journey I took three years ago, as much as I love the idea of graduating this year I miss the feeling of new experiences everyday and living in the dorm. Well maybe I don’t miss that too much.
This semester is going to be insane, with 2 thesis classes, working, sorority and club commitments. But I love staying busy and enjoy that Puget Sound offers so many ways to get involved.
So I have made a list of things I need to do before I graduate so here they are, it will expand as the year goes on and I will update to let you all know what I have accomplished
1) Go to Presidents house dinner
2) Hike near/around Mt. Rainer
3) Kayak in the Sound
4) Go up the space needle again
5) eat a hamburger and fries in the sub….yes I have NEVER eaten a burger and fries there!
6) Go the the Puyallup fair
7) meet people in my year I don’t know
Go skiing in Washington. more than once
SO hopefully some of these things will be accomplished and I can feel like I left Puget Sound really doing all the things on my list. Its a Puget Sound bucket list, if you will.
So best of luck to everyone on classes, study hard!
