Spotlight on:
Stephanie
Hwang
Stephanie is a senior in
Columbia’s School of
Engineering and Applied
Science, majoring in
Operations Research. Besides
being an incredible student,
Stephanie is involved in many
aspects of student life at
Columbia, including the Undergraduate Recruitment Committee and
residential life. Stephanie served Theta as Vice President Public
Relations in 2009.
"One of the things I admire most about Steph is that she is a
leader in all aspects of her life from academics to extracurriculars,
and most especially, Theta. Although she juggles so many activities,
Steph always has a smile on her face and time to listen to her
friends. I am so proud of her and so happy to have her in my life!"
said Ashwini Kadaba (CC ‘12).
Other sisters describe her as positive, caring and extremely
dedicated. Stephanie has been an incredible presence in Theta and
the Columbia community. After graduation, she will join JP Morgan.

Kappa Alpha Theta will participate
in Relay for Life on April 17
Soon, you'll be hearing about our chapter's participation in
the American Cancer Society's annual Relay for Life. In this
all-day event, Theta joins the University community to
celebrate survivors, remember loved ones lost, and fight back
against the disease.
In addition to raising money through our booth, many of our
sisters will take turns walking in the 24-hour relay around
Dodge Gymnasium's track. Be sure to support your daughter,
granddaughter, niece, or her friends in our effort to end
cancer by sponsoring a sister and donating to her cause. Stay
tuned for more information!
