I plan to purse a graduate degree and become Certified Public Acccounting. I hope to one day work for a nonprofit organization and share their mission and passion in uplifting our society. Growing up in the south I knew I did not want to go too far for school and Clemson was the perfect fit for everything I desired in a college. The first time I set foot on the Clemson campus, I knew I was home. The sense of community and school pride drew me to Clemson along with its wide range of opportunities and beautiful state. I have a passion for traveling and experiencing all the wonders and beautiful cultures the world has to offer. I hold my family and friends very close to my heart and enjoy meeting new people and trying new things! I am so blessed to be a student at Clemson and even more thankful for my new family in ADPi.

I am really excited to get as involved as possible at Clemson. I hope to get involved in giving tours myself, through CUGA. Also, I hope to join Student Government and tutor other students. Some of my favorite things are hiking, hanging out with my friends and family, listening to music, and painting. I also come from a huge football family and background, so game days are my favorite.

I love college football, the lake, wake surfing, shopping, traveling, and iced coffee! I'm super outgoing and thrive in social settings. Although I’ve only been in ADPi for a few months, I feel like I've already met life-long friends and cannot wait to meet many more!

I have already found so many organizations that have brought my Clemson experience to life including ADPi, FCA, and SNA. I am passionate about continuously bettering myself and these organizations have already pushed me to do so. Some of my favorite things are being with family and friends, working out, fall weather, traveling, and concerts!

Even though I am from Georgia I grew up going to Clemson games because I am the 5th generation in my family to go here! One of my favorite things about Clemson is the game days because I absolutely love college football and my second favorite thing would be the location! I love that you can go to the lake, hiking in the mountains or go out in downtown Greenville! As I went through recruitment and learned more about ADPi I realized that it would be the best place for me because I found that it is a community of women who hold themselves to a high standard where they put others and faith above themselves! I’m so excited to meet more of my new sisters throughout the next couple of years!” - Allie Hood, AC ‘20

Christine Andrews

“Hi there! My name is Christine Andrews and I am a freshman from Gastonia, North Carolina! I am majoring in Food Science and Human Nutrition, and I have the opportunity to be studying under the pre-professional health track! I chose Clemson because I had the best tour guide ever (Kathryn Hull, who happens to be in ADPi). She made me realize just how much of a close-knit family the Clemson community is. My hobbies involve everything related to fitness and personal wellness. If you know me, you know I spend most of my time weightlifting at the gym, trying out new restaurants around the area (#foodie), and working on my mental health with friends through yoga, meditation, and bible study. I even ran a half marathon this past summer with my best friend! I am so excited to meet new friends who inspire me to be the best version of myself, and get involved in research. I cannot wait to continue my journey here at the best place on Earth. Go ADPi and GO TIGERS!” - Christine Andrews, AC ‘20

Sarah Brockman

"Hey, y’all! My name is Sarah Brockman! I am a freshman Nursing major from Spartanburg, South Carolina! Growing up as the youngest daughter in a house that is divided between Clemson and U of SC, I had the excitement of being the tie-breaker in the family. I was always “wishy-washy” between the two schools until I heard so much about what Clemson has to offer and the variety of experiences my mother had and my older sister is experiencing at this school. One thing that has always stood out is how students have said “Clemson feels like family”, and ever since Clemson has become my home, it has been everything and more I thought it would be! I am thankful for the people I have met through this sorority, FCA, and Freshman Council ’24! I cannot wait to make new friends and happy memories with my new Clemson family!" - Sarah Brockman, AC ‘20

I have dreams of becoming an oral surgeon in the military, hopefully somewhere overseas because I am so interested in other cultures. I never thought I would be here at Clemson, but the moment I stepped on campus I fell in love with it; there’s something in these hills. I have been so blessed to already be a part of so many outstanding organizations on campus including Freshmen Council, the Pre-Dental Club and Alpha Delta Pi! Being involved is a big part of who I am. I love getting to know those around me and absolutely adore any leadership role I am offered! My favorite things include live music, the outdoors, road trips, breakfast foods, pumpkin coffee, farm animals, campfires and sunrises! I try to radiate joy and laughter as much as I can and believe that this life is such a gift. I am so very excited for the next four years at Clemson as an ADPi! Go tigers!” - Delaney Greene, AC ‘20

Hana Grace Lewis

“Hey ya’ll! My name is Hana Grace Lewis and I am from Abbeville, South Carolina, which is just about an hour from Clemson. I am a sophomore Early Childhood Education major and hope to be a Child Life Specialist once I graduate. My dream is to be a helping hand to children with cancer by helping them cope with their sickness and what they are going through. I grew up attending a lot of Clemson football games, so I always loved the tigers and the beautiful campus! Clemson University was my first choice to attend college, but I was always so scared that I wouldn’t get in. So once I was accepted, I knew this was exactly where God planned for my future. I am so excited to stay involved with FCA on campus and to be a part of such an amazing sisterhood! I am looking forward to meeting the rest of my sisters in ADPi while creating lifelong friendships. Can’t wait to start the rest of this journey with my fellow sisters in Tiger Town!” - Hana Grace Lewis, AC ‘20

Julia Morosey

“Hi everyone! My name is Julia Morosey and I'm a Biological Sciences major from Greenville, SC. After graduating from Clemson, my plan is to attend Medical School to become an Oncologist. Choosing Clemson was the easiest decision of my life and I can't wait to see what the next four years have in store! I love college football, going to the lake, and of course shopping (especially at Emmaline Boutique). I'm so proud to call the best school, "home," and to be a part of the most amazing sisterhood. I cannot wait for this journey as a tiger!” - Julia Morosey, AC ‘20

Jazmine Rainey

“Hey everyone! My name is Jazmine Rainey, I am from a little town in South Carolina called Greer. Growing up in Greer I was constantly involved in my community, working in elementary schools, helping out at our local food bank, and raising money for Greer Community Ministries through my school. Although all of these experiences have changed my life, working with children has changed it the most. Through high school I was involved in Teacher Cadets which allowed me to find my love for teaching and pursue a degree in Elementary Education. Upon discovering my love for teaching, it was time for me to pick the perfect University to further my education. When touring Clemson I felt an instant wave of happiness and belonging and that is how I knew that Clemson was going to be my home for the next four years. Choosing Clemson has been the best decision that I have made; from the roar of Death Valley on game days to the silent nights in Cooper Library studying, I wouldn't want to call any other place my home. Being involved in the Bridge to Clemson program offered me an insight into what Clemson was really about and the values that Clemson University cherishes. I am so excited to become more involved on campus this year. My first goal was to become involved in a sorority, and now my second goal is to become involved in Clemson Hope and many of the other clubs that Clemson has to offer. I have already been surrounded by a wonderful group of sisters who encourage, and push me to be the best version of myself. I'm so thankful for my fellow sisters, and I can't wait to experience the rest of my college years with them.” - Jazmine Rainey, AC ‘20

Kailey Butler

“Hey y’all! My name is Kailey Butler and I am a freshman Food Science and Human Nutrition major from Blythewood, SC. Growing up just a few minutes down the road from Columbia, I was raised in gamecock territory and had always gone to their games growing up. As I neared the end of high school and had to make my college decision, staying home just didn’t feel right and Clemson had always seemed like home for me, even before I ever stepped foot on campus for a tour. The day my acceptance letter came in the mail this past December, I paid my deposit the same day and wrote “move in day” into my calendar! After being here for about a month, I continue to fall in love with the University everyday, especially when I see the sunset over campus every evening. Joining ADPi has been an absolute blessing and I have already made the best of friends with girls in my Alpha class. Besides becoming involved in sorority life, I was also chosen to represent my class as a member of Freshman Council and have also plugged in with FCA and a small group. I know there is so much in store for ADPi in the next four years and I can’t wait for all of the laughs, trips, friendships, and memories to be made with all of my new sisters!” - Kailey Butler, AC ‘20

Mary Galloway

“Hey you guys! I'm Mary Grace Galloway, I'm from Chapin, South Carolina, and I'm a Microbiology major. I'm either planning to attend medical school or cardiovascular perfusionist school in hopes of becoming a surgeon or a cardiovascular perfusionist. Growing up in a house with an entire room dedicated to the gamecocks, I knew that announcing my decision for college was going to be a tough one. My dad played football and baseball at Carolina, and my grandpa played football there too. Telling my family that I wanted to go to Clemson was not particularly something I was looking forward to, but I knew that Clemson was my new home when I got to experience the inclusive atmosphere with a strong sense of community. There's absolutely no place like it. I knew as soon as I visited, this place was home. So when I broke the news, we went back and forth until they realized that I truly did already love Clemson, and that I had made the right decision. The constant "boo Clemson" jokes still haven't stopped and probably never will, but I'm just happy that I'm where I belong. Although times have been different with COVID-19, I still have felt so welcome here and am so happy to not only be a part of the Clemson family, but also the Alpha Delta Pi family too! I love meeting new people and trying new things, and I've already developed so many friendships and have gotten to do so much on campus. I absolutely love long walks and being outdoors! I've met so many girls who I can watch Bachelor nights with and who will catch up on 90 Day Fiancè with me. I can't wait to continue these next 4 years in ADPi, and to meet even more of my best friends!” - Mary Galloway, AC ‘20

Faryn Heatly

“Hey everyone! My name is Faryn Heatly and I’m from McDonough, GA, which is about 25 minutes south of downtown Atlanta. I plan to study Sports Communication with the goal of one day becoming a professional sports agent, representing athletes and helping them to achieve their goals and dreams, while I live out mine. I chose Clemson because I’ve grown up a Tiger, spending countless weekends in Death Valley. It has always been home to me. I believe that Clemson offers many opportunities that will equip me greatly for my future. Some of my favorite things include college football, spending time with my family and friends, listening to music, and tacos! It’s very exciting to officially be a Tiger, and I’m ready to experience everything Clemson has to offer. I’m so grateful to call both Clemson and ADPi home. I can’t wait to watch these next four years unfold! Go Tigers!” - Faryn Heatly, AC ‘20

Liddy Madeline

“Hi!!! I’m Liddy, and I am a Psychology major from Greenville, South Carolina! Clemson has always felt like home to me and I’m so excited to finally be here! I chose Clemson because the atmosphere and school spirit is truly one of a kind. I’ve been a dancer my whole life and grew up with two sisters, so I was super excited to join a sorority and become a part of another lifelong sisterhood. Throughout high school, I had the opportunity to connect with students who have special needs through a peer tutoring program. I would love to become involved with the ClemsonLIFE program, and connect with some of those students here on campus! Although I have only been a part of Alpha Delta Pi for a short amount of time, I already feel at home and have met my new lifelong besties! I cannot wait to meet everyone and see what the next few years have in store for me!” - Liddy Madeline, AC ‘20

Ashley Owens

“Hey y’all! My name is Ashley Owens and I am a current freshman. I am from Keller, Texas, majoring in Special Education, and hope to continue my education by earning a masters in Counseling. Attending Clemson has always been a lifelong dream of mine. My mom is an alumnae and instilled the love for Clemson in me from an early age. No other college visit could sway me from the orange paw! Clemson has seamlessly become my new home and I can’t imagine myself anywhere else! This year, I am involved with volunteering with the ClemsonLIFE program and Young Life. I’m excited to learn more about other clubs and organizations that Clemson has to offer and hopeful to become more involved with ADPi as a leader. Some things I enjoy doing are spending time with my friends and family, working out, dancing, going to the beach or lake, traveling and trying new things! I am extremely adventurous and am always up for trying new things and exploring new experiences. I am beyond blessed to be a part of the Clemson family and the chapter of ADPi. I can already feel that I have met lifelong friends and sisters and can’t wait to develop even more relationships in the future. Boom Boom and Go Tigers!” - Ashley Owens, AC ’20

Madison Webb

“Hello everyone! My name is Madison Webb and I am a sophomore Marketing Major from Easley, South Carolina! Growing up just 20 minutes from Clemson, I grew very fond of this little town and the people in it. The atmosphere here at Clemson is unlike any other, and I am so grateful it became my home away from home. My favorite hobbies include calligraphy, shopping, exercising, doing devotionals, and being outside! I am so excited to be a part of Alpha Delta Pi, and I am very expectant to see myself grow personally and spiritually throughout the many new friendships I make! As always, Go Tigers!

Ashley Anderson

“Hey everyone! My name is Ashley Anderson, and I was born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina. That being said, I love spending my summers at the beach. I’m a freshman English major, and I could not be more excited to be a Tiger! Almost everyone on my dad’s side of the family went to Clemson, so my college choice was easy. When you grow up spending game days in Death Valley, it’s hard to imagine going to college anywhere else! I’ve played soccer my whole life and have recently started loving workout classes like HIIT and kickboxing! Aside from fun workouts, I love reading, listening to music, and I’m a sucker for a good coffee date. On campus, I’m involved in CHAARG, the Her Campus Clemson literary magazine, and of course, ADPi! All of the sisters I’ve met so far have been so sweet and down to earth, and I can’t wait to meet so many more as the years go by! Go Tigers!” - Ashley Anderson, AC ‘20

Megan Botts

"Hey y’all! My name is Meg Botts, and I’m a Biological Sciences major from the small town of Abbeville, SC. My dad is a football coach so I have grown up around football my entire life! I absolutely love the game and it only seemed fit to attend the University that has the #1 team in the nation! However, football is not the only reason why I fell in love with Clemson. I chose Clemson University because of the breathtaking campus, outstanding academics, and the opportunity to make lifelong friends. I am super excited to say that I am a part of the ADPi family, and I am so grateful to have so many amazing sisters! Some things that I enjoy are spending time with my friends and family, shopping, working out, traveling, going to the beach and lake, going to concerts, and listening to country music! I also love to dress cute and take lots of pictures! Sports have always been a part of my life and I would love to get involved in intramural sports here at Clemson. I am also excited to get involved in FCA on campus! I cannot wait to experience everything Clemson has to offer and walk this journey with the best support system around (my ADPi sisters)! Go Tigers!!" - Megan Botts, AC ‘20

Riley Dowling

“Hi!! I’m Riley Dowling and I’m a Genetics major from Greenville, SC. After getting my master's in Genetics, my hope is to be a Genetic Counselor. Having parents who are both Clemson alumni and live close by made Clemson an easy choice for college. I recently got involved with Freshman Council and FCA. I am excited to learn about more clubs and organizations to be a part of. Some of my favorite things include almond milk lattes, water skiing, chocolate soft serve ice cream, Clemson football, and all my new ADPi sisters! I have already had the best couple of weeks on campus and I cannot wait to see what the next four years hold for me! Go Tigers!” -Riley Dowling, AC ‘20

Leighanna Gambrell

“Hey everyone! I’m Leighanna Gambrell and I am from Spartanburg, South Carolina (about an hour from Clemson!) This year I am a freshman at Clemson, majoring in Psychology with a minor in Social Sciences. My ultimate goal after Clemson is to attend dental school to pursue my dream of becoming an Orthodontist. Growing up in South Carolina, Clemson has always felt like home to me. Both of my parents actually attended the University of South Carolina, but I broke the tradition and became a Tiger! I chose Clemson because I knew that the University as a whole would push me to become a better student, while also providing me with endless opportunities. This year at Clemson I am a part of CUSG, as I was selected as a member of the Greek Affairs Committee, and am also a member of the Pre-Dental club! I played volleyball all throughout high school and I love to travel. While I am beyond thankful for the memories from my high school years, I know that Clemson will create the best memories that will last a lifetime! I am so excited to be a part of the best sisterhood, ADPi, and have the opportunity to be surrounded by these girls for the next four years and beyond. Clemson will forever hold a special place in my heart and I am blessed to be an ADPi! Go Tigers!” - Leighanna Gambrell, AC ‘20

Baileigh Price

“Hey y’all! My name is Baileigh Price and I am a sophomore soon to be Nursing major from North Augusta, SC. Growing up I was raised as a Gamecock, but when deciding what college to go to I fell in love with the small town, family feel of Clemson. It has always been a dream of mine to travel as much as I can, so with my nursing degree I hope to be a travel nurse and then either go into the NICU or graduate school to be a Nurse Practitioner. I have cheered my whole life and through that I have fallen in love with fitness. Anyone who knows me knows you can usually find me at the gym. I would love to one day become a trainer on campus and help others reach their goals and learn how to have fun while doing it. I am super excited about getting involved with Clemson Life this year because I have always had a passion for those with special needs and making sure that everyone feels equal despite their differences. I also plan to become a part of FCA and CUGA on campus. I love Jesus, Moes, amusement parks, the beach and lake, music (fun fact: I sing), and anything chocolate peanut butter. So far in ADPi I have already met so many amazing women and I can’t wait for these next few years with the best sisterhood! Boom Boom and Go Tigers!” - Baileigh Price, AC ‘20

Camille Turk

“Hi everyone!! My name is Camille Turk, and I’m a freshman from Saint Simons Island, Georgia (originally from Buckhead). I’m currently a Business Marketing major but I am hoping to switch to Health Sciences with a minor in marketing. Once I graduate from Clemson, I plan on attending PA school to become a Surgical Physician’s Assistant. Growing up, I always thought I would go to UGA for college since my whole family went there and has lived in Athens for generations; however, as cliche as it sounds, once I stepped foot on Clemson’s campus for the first time, I instantly fell in love with every aspect Clemson had to offer. Although I will always love the Dawgs, I’m proud to be able to call myself a Clemson Tiger! At Clemson, I plan on studying abroad in Italy the summer between my sophomore and junior year, and can’t wait to get involved with ADPi events. My hobbies include: traveling, spending time outdoors, college football, playing sports, the gym, and hanging out with friends on the beach!” - Camille Turk, AC ‘20

Carly Clegg

“Hey!! My name is Carly Clegg and I am a sophomore at Clemson. I am from St. George, SC. It is a very small town located between Columbia and Charleston (about an hour each way). I chose to attend Clemson because just about everyone on my mom’s side of the family graduated from Clemson, so of course I didn’t want to break the tradition. I am a Psychology major and plan to attend MUSC after college to get my Doctorate in Occupational Therapy with a focus in Pediatrics. A fun fact about myself is that in 2018 I danced in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York! It was such an amazing experience and I got to enjoy it with my bestie, and now sister in ADPi, Mary Ellis! I love to hang out with friends and family, spend my days on the beach or in the boat, watch Clemson football and make long lasting memories doing spur of the moment things! I am so very happy to be a part of ADPi :)” - Carly Clegg, AC ‘20

Ella Otterman

“Hi everyone! My name is Ella Otterman and I was born and raised in Cincinnati, OH, but my family and I recently moved to Greenville, SC (thankfully just a short drive from Tiger Town!). I could not be happier to see all of your smiling faces on campus and can’t wait to meet all of my new sisters! I made the tough decision to transfer to Clemson as a sophomore this year, but it was no doubt the right one—it already feels like home. ADPi has helped me so much with the transition and I am so thankful to have girls who lift me up and support me. This year I’m hoping to explore my faith and fitness, while getting involved with Clemson CHAARG and FCA. I’m also really looking forward to attending small group with my sisters! I’ve only been in Clemson for a little while now, but this past month has been filled with the things I love the most: meeting new friends, coffee dates, exploring local boutiques, and sunset take-out dinners on Bowman field. I can’t wait to see what other sweet memories these next three years hold! Go Tigers!” - Ella Otterman, AC ‘20

Hannah Pennington

“Hey y’all!! My name is Hannah and I could not be happier about my decision to go through the recruitment process at the best University! I am from Blacksburg, SC which is a small town in the upstate. I love the sense of home that both my town and Clemson give me, but I was so ready for the opportunities that Clemson is going to offer me. My dad went to USC, so I was raised as a Carolina fan my entire life… my parents took me home from the hospital in a Gamecock onesie (ugh so sad)! I played volleyball from seventh grade to senior year and I sang throughout school. I’m a Parks and Recreation major with an emphasis in recreational therapy, hoping to pursue Pediatric Physical Therapy. I am so excited to finally be living in Clemson where I can experience in person church at NewSpring, meet my ADPi girls and have a sleepover ever night with my roommate! My favorite things are tacos, Morgan Wallen, and Hillsong UNITED. I can’t wait to meet and LOVE all of my sisters!”- Hannah Pennington, AC ‘20

Gracie Stockman

“Hey y’all! My name is Gracie Stockman, and I graduated from Lugoff-Elgin High School. I grew up surrounded by family about 20 minutes outside of Lugoff, SC on a farm in a very small community called Tookiedoo. My brother is a year older than me and is also here at Clemson, so choosing to come here was an easy decision for me because I have always been very family oriented. In high school, I was involved with the Special Education program. Through this program, I developed a huge heart for those with disabilities, so I chose to be a Special Education major here at Clemson. As a Bridge student last year, I was so excited to finally be able to rush. Every time I talked to girls in ADPi during recruitment, I felt right at home, and nothing has changed since I joined the chapter. This past month has been nothing short of amazing! Every girl I have met has been so sweet and welcoming, and I definitely look forward to meeting more of my sisters this semester! I am also super excited to be back on Clemson’s campus to start volunteering with the Clemson Life Program again. That has definitely been one of the many highlights of my time here at Clemson! In my free time you can catch me with a Dunkin coffee in my hand, online shopping, or reading my devotion (I love anything Sadie Robertson!) I am so excited to be a part of such an amazing sisterhood and can’t wait to meet everyone!! Go Tigers! BOOM BOOM!- Gracie Stockman, AC ‘20
