Meet Our Vice President of Membership

Dear Potential New Members,

War Eagle! My name is Jillian Johnson and I’m from Mobile, Alabama. I have the honor of serving as Kappa Alpha Theta’s Vice President of Membership this year. Our Recruitment Director, Ansley Fesperman, and I have been working with our team since December to plan an incredible fall recruitment. We are so excited that you have decided to go through recruitment! We hope that you feel welcomed not only in Theta but by all of the Greek Life on Auburn’s campus!

In 2022, I came into recruitment not knowing what to expect, but I did know that I wanted to find a place that made me feel welcomed and at home. After talking to the women in Theta, I was certain that this was the chapter that felt like home. I could talk about my love for Theta forever but the Panhellenic community here at Auburn is filled with amazing chapters and I hope that each one of you will find your home.

Theta is a place where you can be yourself with the constant support of your sisters. As a member of this chapter, I am constantly pushed to be the best leader and best version of myself. If you had told me three years ago, while I was in your position, that I would hold this position I would have never believed you. It is with the amazing support system of women in this chapter that I feel confident in myself and know that I am capable of doing this. College is an adventure that has many ups and downs and is a time when you will grow immensely as a person. We would love to be by your side as you take on this next chapter of your life.

From everyone here at the Gamma Omega chapter, we are so excited to meet you!

WITH LOVE,

Jillian Johnson

Vice President of Membership

Meet Our New Member Director & Assistant

Dear Potential New Members of Kappa Alpha Theta, War Eagle and welcome to Kappa Alpha Theta! Our names are Olivia and Kate, and we are honored and excited to serve as the New Member Director and Assistant for Theta this year! As the new member team, our job is to help transition new members into our chapter, the Auburn Panhellenic community, and college life. We know that this time can be overwhelming and intimidating, but we are here to guide these girls through some of the most fun and exciting times of their lives! We are so expectant for what is to come, and are so looking forward to Bid Day to finally meet you!! College is one of the biggest adjustments, but as the New Member Team we are ready to serve you in any capacity to make the process as smooth and as painless as possible. Theta truly has been both of our biggest blessings in college! It has given both of us the most loving, supportive, genuine, and encouraging friends that are better than we could have ever asked for. It has led us to become better women, students, leaders, and friends. It has provided us a home away from home, an ability to go out of our comfort zone, a chance to grow in ways we never could have, and the encouragement we need to reach our full potential at Auburn. We are so excited to be by your side through it all- from bid day, to the nerves of your first swap, to the fun of your first gameday, to the stressful first exam week in college, to the first thought of missing home, and to all that’s in between, we are here to offer a helping hand and friend through it all. We know that the recruitment process is extremely stressful and overwhelming but rest in the fact that everything works out the way it should. The Auburn Panhellenic community is filled with so much joy and love that you are bound to find a home in one of the wonderful eighteen chapters of Auburn. We have the utmost faith that if you do call Kappa Alpha Theta home, you will meet some of the sweetest, intentional, and uplifting girls while making some of the best memories of your college career. Theta has given so much to us, we can’t wait to give it back to the new members while welcoming them with open arms to our chapter!! Theta Love and Mine, Olivia Irion & Kate Peterson New Member Director + New Member Assistant
