Alpha Sigma Nu inducted its newest members on Saturday, March 26, 2022. Students who rank among the top 15 percent of their class are invited apply, and membership is conferred on no more than four percent of the junior and senior class, and graduate program students. Members of the Honor Society of Jesuit Colleges and Universities distinguish themselves in scholarship, loyalty, and service.
Each year, the National Office of Alpha Sigma Nu provides funding for a scholarship to be awarded to an outstanding member from each chapter. After working with the Office of Financial Aid and carefully considering detailed application statements, chapter coordinator Maribel Mara presented Reese Garcia with the $1,000 Alpha Sigma Nu Scholarship for 2021-2022.
As part of her service, Reese is a mentor for the Emily Shane Foundation, where she assists underprivileged middle school students raise their grades and complete schoolwork, while teaching organizational skills, encouraging social consciousness, and inspiring students to give back to their communities. In her essay, Reese said this about her mentoring work: “Through this position, I have the opportunity to meet an array of students with different stories. While I teach them algebra or reading comprehension, they teach me how to be a better listener. When a student has a bad day or struggles to grasp a subject, I act as an open ear, so that they can express their needs and goals. We then create a system to achieve those goals together.”
