With 2011 recruitment in full swing, the Greek organizations of DePauw are on everybody’s mind. In December, the six female Greek organizations on campus voted on and decided which women would gain positions on the Panhellenic Executive Board, an organization that oversees all chapters. Here’s a look at Cincinnati native, and DePauw University’s new Panhellenic President, Macy Ayers.
Her Campus: What is your dream job?
Macy Ayers: “I have no idea what my dream job is, but ideally something where I get to interact with a lot of people. Other than that I see myself in a lot of different places.”
HC: Who is your favorite Professor at DePauw?
MA: “Professor Gallaghar. I’ve had her three times within my major and I appreciate that she’s tolerant of all different kinds of opinions and interest levels within political science.”
HC: What kinds of things are you involved in on campus?
MA: “I’m a member of Delta Gamma and I’m active within the chapter, a managing editor for ‘The DePauw’, the Vice President of Academic Life for the student body, and a WGRE D.J.
HC: Wow, that’s an impressive list! In case anyone is wondering, when is your D.J. show?
MA: “I D.J. on Tuesdays from 10pm to midnight.”
HC: Well, I’ll have to tune in. On another note, how are you involved within your sorority?
MA: “This past year I’ve been Vice President of Membership, which is basically head recruitment chair. I also did a lot of work for Public Relations, particularly for Anchor Splash, which is our national philanthropy. Additionally, for fun I really like going to my sisters’ events on campus and play intramural sports.”
HC: What is your favorite sisterhood activity?
MA: “I like to try new things with my sisters. Thus far I’ve tried both ice-skating and roller-skating, both of which I had never done before. They both were terrifying but my sisters helped me through it pretty well.”
HC: What goals and values do you want to promote or achieve during your time as Panhellenic President?
MA: “Well, as a broader goal I’d like to see greater attention on Panhellenic Sisterhood. I would like that to include more formal and informal processes to make that goal more tangible. I’d also really like to see a higher number of women enroll in formal recruitment next year. DePauw has a really strong Panhellenic tradition and I think it’s really important to continue that trend in the future.
