Hero This Week: Brittany Norman 
Chosen By: Taylor Sang

Brittany is a wonderful sister, not just because she is a member of the first and finest, but because of her great acts of sisterhood. She is kind, funny, straight forward, and doesn't do good deeds just for the sake of recognition. Congratulations on the engagement!

Hero This Week: Jessica Higgins!

Hero This Week: Jessica Higgins!
Chosen By: Amy Winkler
 
Jessica Higgins is so beautiful inside & out. She truly exemplifies everything Alpha Delta Pi stands upon. She does illustrate the highest ideals of Christian Womanhood and she does enrich me with true friendship. She is selfless and understanding. We laugh and we cry together. She offers me so much confidence and support. I hope Jessica understands I want to be for her, what she is for me. From Jessica, we can all learn to wipe our slate clean and hold no grudges. Jessica treats every sister with understanding and respect. That makes her standout. My wish is that we could all become a lot more like Jessica. This week was full of ridiculous stresses, but nonetheless she was there for me through them all. Jessica truly is my best friend, sister, and hero. You are beautiful & I love you to the moon and back!

Hero This Week: Alex Kimura!
Chosen By: Anne Taylor Wilson

Alex is one of the most beautiful individuals--inside and out--that I have ever met. She never ceases to amaze me. She is smart, driven, talented, and undeniably hilarious. I will never forget when she stood up at her first Epsilon Delta meeting and made an announcement about starting a new program on campus, FeelGood, to end world hunger. I remember thinking, "Dang, This girl is legit!" Alex did not waste a minute of her time getting involved on campus or in this sorority. After being here for only a semester, Alex had founded a new organization on campus, became a Spirit Master, and took on the daunting task of Spring Sing Props, all while maintaining outstanding grades and dealing with the difficult and unexpected diagnosis of her sister. She's a rock star. Alex really blew me away during recruitment week. As I said before, the girl is down right funny. Her sense of humor and with are unmatched. She was not afraid to bust out her inner-nerd and act like a complete goofball during the theme skit. Plus, she allowed herself to be vulnerable & opened up by sharing her testimonial at preference, which I think we all would agree extremely moving. Not only that, but she can dougie with the best of them, make a mean grilled cheese. Alex, even though you are my adopted little sister, I truly look up to you and am often awestruck at how outgoing, hardworking, and optimistic you are. I love you, little! Remember: Game Face, Bring it On :)

Hero This Week: Alex Wood
Chosen By: Amanda Heim

Alex is my diamond sister & I couldn't imagine my life without her in it. She is absolutely the most loving and caring person I know. She will drop anything and everything for those she loves. I know if I ever need advice or I'm upset about something-I can always call Alex. She didn't know me at all when were assigned Big & Little but she took me under her wing and treated me like her sister from the start. Alex contributes so much to Alpha Delta Pi. She is a sister who listens, cares, and understands. She also holds an office. I strive every day to be Alex. She is truly the epitome of an Alpha Delta Pi. She is strong in her faith and always turns to God or prayer in times of trouble. She also looks for the best in people. This is something I admire I wish I could do. If everyone were to be Alex, the world would truly be a better place. I am so glad Alex is an Adpi and I am so proud to call her my big sister. She's not just my diamond sister, she's my best friend, companion, & future cat lady.

Chosen By: Savannah Gulley


This female is a prime example of an Alpha Delta Pi. She has a loving personality along with a selfless heart. Not only was she my Pi Chi, but she was a huge reason as to why I wanted to be an Alpha Delta Pi. Her poise & actions exemplify high moral standards. She is always there whether it be big or small, and she can be trusted with the deepest secret. I am so happy to call her a best friend but even happier to call her my sister. My hero is Katrina!

Hero This Week: Aarika Hutton!
Chosen By: Anonymous
Aarika has been the perfect example of what an Adpi should be. She does it all. She's involved on campus, she's super active in Adpi as our president, and she gives back to the community. With all of this, she still makes time for her sisters. Aarika always has a smile on her face. She has such a kind spirit and is nice to everyone she comes into contact with. Not once does she ask for recognition for all that she does for this chapter and for this campus. She does it all because she loves Adpi & WKU. This is my way of saying thank you for all that you do. Thank you for being a role model. Thank you for being kind, even when no one is looking. And thank you for being one of the best sisters I could ever ask for. You mean more to me than you know. Pi Love You with all I have!

Hero This Week: Molly Clark!
Chosen By: Heidi Smith

When Molly started off her senior year, she was expecting 8am classes everyday, lots of homework, and getting ready for graduation. She was not expecting getting a little at all. Molly works on campus, is on the Up Till Dawn committee, handles many classes and maintains good grades. With all of this she is still active in Adpi. She is seen as a hard worker and an all around great person from anyone in the community. Molly has been there for me through all the health issues and all the problems that have been happening at home in my life. I never could have imagined that someone who I had just met would already want to do so many things for me, as well as guide me and just be there for me. Molly & I did not know each other when we were paired up as Diamond Sisters. I was honestly worried about her being my big sister--but now I know for a fact that I would not have made it through without my big. She calls & checks up on people , and offers things when they are needed. I have never seen nor known such a caring person. Molly I love you and thank you so much for being there for me. You truly are and will forever be my hero. You are indeed the definition of a sister.
