Amelia Moffatt

“Hey y’all! My name is Amelia Moffatt, and I am from Birmingham, Alabama. I am a Nursing major here at Clemson, and I’m so thankful to also be a part of Alpha Delta Pi!! I chose Clemson for many reasons. My dad attended Clemson, so I grew up a tiger fan even in Alabama! I also wanted to have a new experience and environment as well as get out of my comfort zone, and I have never been more thankful I chose this school. Furthermore, Clemson has given me the opportunity to pursue my dream career in nursing in hopes of becoming a Nurse Anesthetist in a Children’s Hospital one day. In my free time, I love to spend time with my family and friends. I have loved meeting all of my new sisters (slowly) in person as this semester has progressed, and I couldn’t be more thankful for all of the incredible friends, mentors, and supporters Zeta Nu has gifted me with. I knew I wanted to become an ADPi during my first round of recruitment when the conversations I had with the upperclassmen were so meaningful and truly showed that they cared about me for who I was and am today. Everyone I have met so far has been truly intentional in all of their actions as well as so welcoming this first semester even in the midst of these crazy times. Lastly, some of my favorite things are sunsets, country music, the lake, chicken fingers, my faith, coffee, and walks. I can’t wait for the best four years here at Clemson in Alpha Delta Pi and GO TIGERS!” - Amelia Moffatt, AC ‘20

Olivia Hennessy

“Hey everyone! My name is Olivia Hennessy and I’m from Virginia Beach, VA. I am currently a freshman majoring in Business Management with the intended minor of Nonprofit Leadership. I loved growing up in my beach town but when it was time for college, I knew I wanted the adventure of going out of state. I trusted my gut and accepted Clemson, without even stepping on campus. Since then, I have been lucky enough to find my home away from home. I have loved every game day, sleepover with my big, and downtown coffee dates. ADPi has given me the opportunity to meet my closest friends on campus and I am so excited for all the memories to come!” - Olivia Hennessy, AC ‘20

Grace Kramer

“Hey everyone! My name is Grace Kramer and I am from Charlotte, North Carolina. I am a freshman Biological Sciences major on a Pre-Med track because of my love for helping others! I have been a dancer my entire life and when it came time to start thinking of potential colleges, I immediately started researching if I could dance in college. It wasn’t long until I stumbled upon Clemson University. The Rally Cat’s orange sparkly uniforms caught my eye. Shortly after I told my parents I wanted to attend Clemson University, the opportunity came and I finally toured Clemson. The moment I stepped on campus I knew that this was it. It was home. Normally, I am a very indecisive person but this decision I was able to make instantly. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to be a student here, be a part of the Rally Cats Dance Team, and wear the orange sparkly uniform that sparked my love for this school. Let’s just say dreams really do come true. I am so thankful to have found my sisters within Alpha Delta Pi! I can't wait to meet more people and make memories together. As always, Go Tigers!” - Grace Kramer, AC ‘20

Emily Reynolds

“Hey everybody!! My name is Emily Reynolds, and I am a freshman from the little town of Sumter, South Carolina. I am currently a Psychology major with dreams of becoming a physical therapist one day. I grew up attending South Carolina football games and never thought I’d end up being a student at Clemson, but now that I’ve been here for three months, I truly cannot imagine myself anywhere else. To me, Clemson is more than just buildings and loads of orange and purple. Clemson is where the colors of the fall leaves are a little more vibrant. It’s a place where strangers pass you on the sidewalk, smiling from ear to ear. Clemson is a place for new beginnings, and it continues to blow me away everyday. The past few months have allowed me to tap back into areas of my life that I’m passionate about, and I’ve been learning that creativity and imagination blossoms if we just allow it to. Music and art are ways that I’ve been able to express myself when words simply can’t capture what I’m feeling. I’m thankful for organizations such as FCA and Younglife that have provided me with powerful encouragement and meaningful friendships this semester at Clemson. I feel so blessed and excited to be a part of this year’s amazing alpha class!! GO ADPI!!!!!” - Emily Reynolds, AC ‘20

Dodie Shaw

“Hey y’all! My name is Dodie Shaw, and I am from Augusta, Georgia. I am majoring in Biological Sciences with the hope of becoming an occupational therapist. Ever since a young age, I have had a passion for helping individuals with special needs, and I hope to enrich my love for helping others during my time at Clemson. ADPi has brought me the wonderful opportunity of serving as our chapter’s ClemsonLIFE Chair Assistant, and I could not be more excited to see what this position has in store for me. Although my Dad’s side of the family is full of tiger fans, choosing Clemson for myself was a personal decision. While going through the college selection process, I realized how distinctly unique Clemson is. I absolutely adore how the Clemson community embraces others with open arms, and encourages their students to have a truly well rounded college experience. Now that I am officially a Clemson tiger, I could not be more grateful for the Clemson family that loves each other so well. I love spending quality time with my friends and family, staying rooted in my faith, going to the beach, traveling, shopping and all things fashion, skiing and tubing while at the lake, and drinking iced coffee. Although I have not been a member of ADPi for very long, the sisterhood I have already formed is something I will treasure for the rest of my life. Being surrounded by such confident, self motivated, and compassionate girls on a day to day basis has been so incredible. I am so looking forward to the next four years alongside the most special sisters! Go Tigers!” - Dodie Shaw, AC ‘20

Kate Lalley

“Hey! My name is Kate Lalley and I am from Atlanta, Georgia! I have wanted to go to Clemson my whole life since my mom went here and always brought me to visit. She was also an ADPi so it feels like a dream to be here and be a part of Alpha Delta Pi! I am majoring in Business Marketing and hoping to pursue a career in a marketing department of a fashion company. In my spare time, I love spending time with my family and close friends. I am an (aspiring) morning person, love sunrises, long runs, green tea, shopping, and spontaneous adventures! It has been such a blessing to meet all of my new ADPi sisters who share some of these interests with me and also introduce me to their personal interests as well. Going into recruitment, my desire was to find a place that had girls who would push me to grow in these next four years and be my go-to people through college and on. I always saw this attribute in the girls in Alpha Delta Pi and knew that was the place for me! As I am nearing the end of my first semester here at Clemson, I could not be happier knowing this college and this sorority is where I am supposed to be!” - Kate Lalley, AC ‘20
