STUDENT SPOTLIGHT 🌟
Sofia Almonte (she/her)
Sofia is a second year student in ASP. She started last summer and is majoring in Geography. She was recently inducted into the Chi Alpha Epsilon Honors fraternity and serves on the executive board. Joining XAE was important to her to help with resume building, involvement, and community service opportunities. She once hosted a sock drive in her community to support homeless locals. She hopes to use her college degree to attend grad school and work to combat the ongoing climate crisis.
Involvement on campus: XAE (Events and Community Service Coordinator), Illustration club, Geography and Planning club
XAE SPOTLIGHT
Chi Alpha Epsilon was formed to recognize the academic achievements of students admitted to colleges and the universities through non-traditional criteria. Its purposes are to promote continued high academic standards, to foster increased communication among its members, and to honor academic excellence achieved by those students. Over the weekend, a few members of the XAE executive board and GA Ronan participated in a volunteer creek clean up at Crum River Creek.
Chester Ridley Crum Watersheds Association (CRC) is an organization devoted to the protection of water resources and the natural environment of the Chester, Ridley, and Crum Creek Valleys. Learn more.
