Your Purpose. Our Mission.

As Psi Chi advisor for the last 20 years, I have participated in so many service activities with our wonderful students--from staying up all night for Relay to Life to feeding children at Eagle Harbor and women at My Sister's House to Walking for Life. Every year, I have given of my time and talents on weekends and evenings and especially on Friday afternoon for our meetings. I feel so blessed to have been a part of serving our students and community.
