߲ݴý University sophomore Angelina Orent (’27) says she has an unwavering dedication to serving her community and campus.
“I believe in the power of service to bring positive change into the world,” says the social work major from Omaha, Neb.
Orent is actively involved in several organizations on campus. Some include captain of the ߲ݴý women’s swimming team, secretary of the Student Affairs Senate, a student ambassador and vice president of philanthropy for Delta Zeta sorority.
“Being a part of Greek Life has allowed me to make meaningful connections and friendships with members from different chapters,” she says. “These connections provide a supportive network of friends who share similar values and goals.”
Orent is just as active in the Lincoln community. She volunteers with five different organizations including Tabitha GracePoint, an assisted living facility not far from campus. “I love serving there because I get to work one-on-one with residents experiencing memory loss and form meaningful connections with them.”
She says Greek life and volunteerism can be fulfilling for students trying to get involved . "You have the chance to make a meaningful difference in the community, and you get to do it with others who want to make a similar impact.”
Orent says she plans to use her social work degree to continue to impact people she serves.
