Katherine Wright Alpha Omicron Pi “I am a freshman studying chemical engineering on a premedical track with hopes of going on to medical school. I am an undergraduate researcher at the Lipke Lab here at Auburn on the Cardiac Regeneration Project, and I have the honor of serving as the assistant to the VP of Academic Development for Alpha Omicron Pi. I am also a member of the Honors College and Alpha Epsilon Delta. I am so grateful for the constant encouragement and support I have received from my friends in AOII and the entire Panhellenic community! There is nowhere I would rather spend the next three years than here on the plains!”

The Auburn University Panhellenic Council would like to congratulate our 2021 Panhellenic Scholarship Recipients. We are so proud of each of you!

The event draws many participants, spectators, and sponsors not only because of the talent of the dancers, but also because of the heart and meaning behind the event. Members from each chapter volunteer throughout the course of the Greek Sing season for “Habitat Days.” These days are set aside for students to go to work on homesites with the amazing leadership of the Habitat team. This is an impactful time of service that benefits not only families in our local communities, but members of the Greek community as well. At the end of the event, Auburn Panhellenic makes a donation to Habitat for Humanity in the Lee county area, but we wouldn't be able to do it without the help of our amazing members and sponsors. This year more than ever before, we are so thankful to all of our Greek Sing sponsors. The work we do wouldn't be possible without them and we are so thankful to all of these businesses who helped make an impact on Habitat for Humanity and allowed us to make Greek Sing 2021 a success.

The week was focused on all of the women in the Auburn community. We highlighted female-owned businesses such as Ross House Coffee Shop and took steps to empower women on Auburn's campus by distributing cookies and roses on the Haley Concourse. The week was also spent highlighting different female-focused clubs and organizations on campus. On Tuesday, Ross House offered 15% off your purchase if you showed a graphic posted by the Auburn Panhellenic social media accounts. On Wednesday, members of the Panhellenic Cabinet distributed cookies and roses on the Haley Concourse. Finally, on Thursday, members of Panhellenic highlighted different female-focused clubs and organizations in Auburn by posting an informational blog post and promoting the organizations on various Auburn Panhellenic social media channels. As Women's History Month comes to a close, Auburn Panhellenic was proud to spend one of the last weeks of the month empowering and celebrating all of the women on Auburn's campus and beyond.  Every year, the Auburn University Panhellenic Council plans and facilitates Greek Sing: a choreographed dance competition among eighteen Panhellenic sororities.

This is an impactful time of service that benefits not only families in our local communities, but members of the Greek community as well. What are Greek Sing Habitat Days? Habitat Days are opportunities for Panhellenic women from each chapter to serve Habitat for Humanity, the beneficiary of all funds raised by Greek Sing each year, in a hands-on service-oriented environment. What is the purpose of Greek Sing Habitat Days? The purpose of Habitat Days is not only to allow Panhellenic women to physically help build homes for Habitat homeowners and see what Greek Sing truly is all about, but to also encourage new bonds to be built among women from different chapters who would likely not have met had if it had not been for the service day. What is accomplished during Greek Sing Habitat Days? During Habitat Days, Auburn Panhellenic volunteers work alongside experienced Habitat for Humanity leaders on any work that needs to be completed. Some of the projects we help with are attaching siding to homes, building fences, painting beadboard, organizing the Habitat for Humanity ReStore and assisting with anything else the team needs! When and where do Greek Sing Habitat Days occur? The Greek Sing Habitat Days occur on a few different Saturdays throughout the spring semester. We work on Habitat home sites around the Auburn-Opelika area and at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Auburn.   |
